It is safe in those cases, though might return slightly out of date
information if another thread is busy modifying the blockchain,
but it avoids potentially lengthy delays just to get things like
the current blockchain height.

This commit refactors some of the rpc-related functions in the
Blockchain class to be more composable. This change was made
in order to make implementing the new zmq rpc easier without
trampling on the old rpc.
New functions:
Blockchain::get_num_mature_outputs
Blockchain::get_random_outputs
Blockchain::get_output_key
Blockchain::get_output_key_mask_unlocked
Blockchain::find_blockchain_supplement (overload)
functions which previously had this functionality inline now call these
functions as necessary.

c1b10381 rpc: decrease memory usage a bit in getblocks.bin (moneromooo-monero)
If monerod is started with default sync mode, set it to SAFE after
synchronization completes. Set it back to FAST if synchronization
restarts (e.g. because another peer has a longer blockchain).
If monerod is started with an explicit sync mode, none of this
automation takes effect.

A sort+uniq step was done for every tx in a 200 block chunk,
causing a lot of repeated scanning as the size of the offset
map got larger with every added tx. We now do the step only
once at the end of the loop.
Doing it this way potentially uses more memory, but testing
shows that it's currently only about 2% more.
If the number of blocks to check was not a multiple of the
number of preparation threads, the last few blocks would
not be included in the threaded long hash calculation.
Those would still get calculated when the block gets added
to the chain, however, so this was only a tiny performance
hit, rather than a security bug.
