6abe772a17e09fe96e68cd3311280d5a30f6378b contrib: Add asmap-tool (Fabian Jahr)
Pull request description:
This adds `asmap.py` and `asmap-tool.py` from sipa's `nextgen` branch: https://github.com/sipa/asmap/tree/nextgen
The motivation is that we should maintain the tooling for de- and encoding asmap files within the bitcoin core repository because it is not possible to use an asmap file that is not encoded.
We already had an earlier version of `asmap.py` within the seeds contrib tools. The newer version only had a small amount of changes and is still compatible, so the old version is removed from contrib/seeds and the new version is made available to `makeseeds.py`.
