fafe896a0b870d85250927bd5374caf73d379468 test: Set regtest.BIP66Height = 102 to speed up tests (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
No need to waste time by forcing creation of more than 1000 blocks to get the benefits of being able to test BIP 66. Also, reducing the height makes it more likely that (third-party) tests are conforming to BIP 66, which is enforced on mainnet for all new blocks.

ACK fafe896a0b870d85250927bd5374caf73d379468. Full functional test suite showed few second speed incrase on my laptop (although I didn't do proper benchmarking with multiple runs, just single `time ./test/functional/test_runner.py` on current master vs this PR).

Bitcoin Core
Setup
Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.
To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.
Running
The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.
Unix
Unpack the files into a directory and run:
bin/bitcoin-qt(GUI) orbin/bitcoind(headless)
Windows
Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.
macOS
Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
