BREAKING CHANGES:

- [types] Added `type` field to `Evidence` (opaque bytes indicating kind of fraud)
- [types] Added `time` field to `Evidence` (note that this is the timestamp of the block which was double-signed, not the time the evidence was received)
- [example/dummy] Remove. See example/kvstore
- [types] Upgrade many messages:
- RequestInitChain takes all fields from a Genesis file
- RequestBeginBlock provides a list of all validators and whether or not
they signed
- Header: remove some fields, add proposer
- BlockID, PartSetHeader: remove
- Validator: includes address
- PubKey: new message with `type` and `data`
- Evidence: add type and more fields

TODO
FEATURES:

- [types] Add some fields
- ResponseInitChain includes ConsensusParams and Validators
- ResponseBeginBlock includes tags
- ResponseEndBlock includes tags

### Commit

- **Returns**:
- **Response**:
- `Data ([]byte)`: The Merkle root hash
- **Usage**:
- Persist the application state.
- Return a Merkle root hash of the application state.
- It's critical that all application instances return the
same hash. If not, they will not be able to agree on the next
block, because the hash is included in the next block!

## Data Messages

### Header

- **Fields**:
- `ChainID (string)`: ID of the blockchain
- `Height (int64)`: Height of the block in the chain
- `Time (int64)`: Unix time of the block
- `NumTxs (int32)`: Number of transactions in the block
- `TotalTxs (int64)`: Total number of transactions in the blockchain until
now
- `LastBlockHash ([]byte)`: Hash of the previous (parent) block
- `AppHash ([]byte)`: Data returned by the last call to `Commit` - typically the
Merkle root of the application state after executing the previous block's
transactions
- `Proposer (Validator)`: Original proposer for the block
- **Usage**:
- Provided in RequestBeginBlock
- Provides important context about the current state of the blockchain -
especially height and time.
- Provides the proposer of the current block, for use in proposer-based
reward mechanisms.

### Validator

- **Fields**:
- `Address ([]byte)`: Address of the validator (hash of the public key)
- `PubKey (PubKey)`: Public key of the validator
- `Power (int64)`: Voting power of the validator
- **Usage**:
- Provides all identifying information about the validator

### SigningValidator

- **Fields**:
- `Validator (Validator)`: A validator
- `SignedLastBlock (bool)`: Indicated whether or not the validator signed
the last block
- **Usage**:
- Indicates whether a validator signed the last block, allowing for rewards
based on validator availability

### PubKey

- **Fields**:
- `Type (string)`: Type of the public key. A simple string like `"ed25519"`.
In the future, may indicate a serialization algorithm to parse the `Data`,
for instance `"amino"`.
- `Data ([]byte)`: Public key data. For a simple public key, it's just the
raw bytes. If the `Type` indicates an encoding algorithm, this is the
encoded public key.
- **Usage**:
- A generic and extensible typed public key

### Evidence

- **Fields**:
- `Type (string)`: Type of the evidence. A hierarchical path like
"duplicate/vote".
- `Validator (Validator`: The offending validator
- `Height (int64)`: Height when the offense was committed
- `Time (int64)`: Unix time of the block at height `Height`
- `TotalVotingPower (int64)`: Total voting power of the validator set at
height `Height`
