/** Presstab - HyperStake hashing
I redesigned the hashing iteration in a few ways.
Code Reorginization - Instead of iterating the hashing in wallet.cpp, it is iterated in kernel.cpp inside of checkstakekernelhash, this allows
the iteration to not need to initialize the variables for every iteration. This is also true for the stake modifier, which was previously
calculated for each iteration.
liteStake - Previously the staking process would continuosly rehash the same hashes over and over, needlessly taking up valuable CPU power.
I have added a std::map that tracks the block height and the last time the wallet hashed on this height. Depending on your staking settings,
the wallet will not begin a new round of hashing until after a certain amount of time has passed, or a new block is accepted. This time delay
can be found in main.cpp bitcoinminer(). This means that there will be 1-5 seconds of hashing with the CPU once every few minutes, compared to
continued hashing with the CPU.
