After a period in the STARTED state, we tally the bits set,
and transition to LOCKED_IN if a sufficient number of blocks in the past period set the deployment bit in their
version numbers. The threshold is ≥1916 blocks (95% of 2016), or ≥1512 for testnet (75% of 2016).
The transition to FAILING takes precedence, as otherwise an ambiguity can arise.
There could be two non-overlapping deployments on the same bit, where the first one transitions to LOCKED_IN while the
other one simultaneously transitions to STARTED, which would mean both would demand setting the bit.
If the threshold hasn't been met, and we reach the timeout, then we either transition to LOCKED_IN state anyway (if lockinontimeout is true), or we transition to FAILING.
Note that a block's state never depends on its own nVersion; only on that of its ancestors.
