9bfea66f45 CH11: edits for Murchandamus feedback 
- Remove redundancy in description of the prevBlockHash field in
  creating a chain of blocks.

- Upsize numbers to segwit block limits

- Use "target" instead of "difficulty" when appropriate.

- Drop paragraph that repeats following table about block header fields

- Correct multiple parts of table about block header fields

- The genesis block is not the first block ever created: there were
  almost certainly test blocks created before it

- Use "||" for concatenation.  Left FIXMEs to update images later.

- Add short note about duplicating internal merkle tree nodes before
  hashing when an odd number are present.  Add long quote from Bitcoin
  Core source about why Bitcoin's merkle tree design should not be
  replicated by other projects.

- Drop table for illustrating what log2(N) looks like.  Add FIXME to add
  a plot.

- Drop details about previous testnet resets.

- Mention that testnets use different address prefixes.

670a780367 CH11: remove section about segnet (segwit test network) 
Main advantage of describing this historic feature was the idea that it
might be used again, but I think signets have fully replaced the future
usage.
