The partition checker was producing huge number of false-positives
and was disabled in 0.12.1 on the understanding it would either be
fixed in 0.13 or removed entirely from master if not.
This was caused by an pyc files hanging around from previous
python2 invocations, when the matching .py missing from that path.
This should not be a problem with python3's tagged caches.
Defers to pre-defined version if found (e.g. protobuf). For protobuf case, the definitions are identical and thus include order should not affect results.

GetTotalBlocksEstimate is no longer used and it was the only thing
the checkpoint tests were testing.
Since checkpoints are on their way out it makes more sense to remove
the test file than to cook up a new pointless test.

1475ecf Fix de-serialization bug where AddrMan is corrupted after exception * CAddrDB modified so that when de-serialization code throws an exception Addrman is reset to a clean state * CAddrDB modified to make unit tests possible * Regression test created to ensure bug is fixed * StartNode modifed to clear adrman if CAddrDB::Read returns an error code. (EthanHeilman)
Verify that results correct (match known values), consistent (encrypt->decrypt
matches the original), and compatible with the previous openssl implementation.
Also check that failed encrypts/decrypts fail the exact same way as openssl.

Ubuntu 16.04 "xenial xerus" does not come with Python 2.x by default.
It is possible to install a python-2.7 package, but this has its own
problem: no `python` or `python2` symlink (see #7717).
This fixes the following scripts to work with python 3:
- `make check` (bctest,py, bitcoin-util-test.py)
- `make translate` (extract_strings_qt.py)
- `make symbols-check` (symbol-check.py)
- `make security-check` (security-check.py)
Explicitly call the python commands using $(PYTHON) instead
of relying on the interpreter line at the top of the scripts.
