fa53e3a58c94731a90514fe92fad365a49adb10c scripted-diff: Move miner to src/node (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  It is impossible to run the miner without a node (validation, chainstate, mempool, rpc, ...). Also, the module is in the node library. Thus, it should be moved to `src/node`.

  Also, replace the `validation.h` include in the header with a forward-declaration.

src/node/

The src/node/ directory contains code that needs to access node state (state in CChain, CBlockIndex, CCoinsView, CTxMemPool, and similar classes).

Code in src/node/ is meant to be segregated from code in src/wallet/ and src/qt/, to ensure wallet and GUI code changes don't interfere with node operation, to allow wallet and GUI code to run in separate processes, and to perhaps eventually allow wallet and GUI code to be maintained in separate source repositories.

As a rule of thumb, code in one of the src/node/, src/wallet/, or src/qt/ directories should avoid calling code in the other directories directly, and only invoke it indirectly through the more limited src/interfaces/ classes.

This directory is at the moment sparsely populated. Eventually more substantial files like src/validation.cpp and src/txmempool.cpp might be moved there.
