Basic Authority (#991)

* Firt commit.

* First non-functional but correct implementation of BasicAuthority.

Still needs:
- Sealing infrastructure.

* Punch a hole to give miner access to key store.

* Fix test built.

* Basic version of synchronous mining.

This will seal a block whenever a new transaction comes through.
To be made better we need a timer which will wait for one second after the
last block before sealing a new one - better still would be to cooperatively
interleave blocks with other sealing nodes.

* Add tests.

* Fix minor issues from repotting.

* Address grumbles.
