Integrated tromp equihash algorithm for mining. Original solvers are available …in https://github.com/tromp/equihash Forum thread: https://forum.z.cash/t/tromps-solvers/2465/197 Able to generate multiple blocks on testnet. https://explorer.testnet.z.cash/block/000a8464db4d2e6ab597acdda0237641ac0baa4e4cd629a02fa47b06fa31a2079 By default this solver is disabled. Need to add macro declaration to enable this solver. How to enable tromp equihash solver: In miner.cpp uncomment following line(35th line). // #define USE_TROMP_EQUIHASH Rebuild and run your zcshd. Performance: Single thread, on 4core, 8GB RAM machine, getting 1 Sol/s.

Waiting for review. @str4d
