The getblockstats RPC functional test is using previously generated test data that is part of the repository. That test data can be regenerated by running the test file with `--gen-test-data` which invokes the `generate_test_data()` function. That function still relied on the old wallet behavior of having a default wallet to work. Because of this the function was broken and this change fixes this. The fact that this was broken did was not noticed previously because the function is not used by the automated test suite by default.
- Fix getblockstats for block height 0 which previously returned an error.
- Introduce alternative utxo_*_actual statistics which exclude unspendables: Genesis block, BIP30, unspendable outputs
- Update test data
- Explicitly test Genesis block results

Using undo data for a block (rev?????.dat) we can retrieve value information about prevouts and calculate the final transaction fee (rate). This approach is about 80x faster, drops the requirement for -txindex, and works for all non-pruned blocks.
4b7091a842 Replace median fee rate with feerate percentiles (Marcin Jachymiak)
Pull request description:
Currently, the `medianfeerate` statistic is calculated from the feerate of the middle transaction of a list of transactions sorted by feerate.
This PR instead uses the value of the 50th percentile weight unit in the block, and also calculates the feerate at the 10th, 25th, 75th, and 90th percentiles. This more accurately corresponds with what is generally meant by median feerate.

Removes medianfeerate result from getblockstats.
Adds feerate_percentiles which give the feerate of the 10th, 25th, 50th,
75th, and 90th percentile weight unit in the block.
