This commit adds support for the BitBox02 hardware wallet.
It supports both single and multisig for the electrum gui wallet.
To use the plugin a local installation of the BitBox02 python library is
required. It can be found on PiPy under the name 'bitbox02' and can be
installed from the bitbox02-firmware repository in the py/bitbox02
directory.
All communication to and from the BitBox02 is noise encrypted, the keys
required for this are stored in the wallet config file under the
bitbox02 key.
The BitBox02 registers a multisig configuration before allowing
transaction signing. This multisig configuration includes the threshold,
cosigner xpubs, keypath, a variable to indicate for mainnet and testnet,
and a name that the user can choose during configuration registration.
The user is asked to register the multisig configuration either during
address verification or during transaction signing.
The check the xpub of the BitBox02 for other hardware wallets, a button
is added in the wallet info dialog.
The wallet encryption key is fetched in a separate api call, requiring a
slightly tweaked override version of the wallet encryption password.
Note: the checksum was already being checked in practically all cases, by the caller.
Moved the check here, to the lower level (but still public) method for sanity.
For example, for 50 KB of random data, and base 43,
previously,
- base_encode took ~38 seconds
- base_decode took ~270 seconds
now,
- base_encode takes ~7.5 seconds
- base_decode takes ~6 seconds
