Problem statement:
BigchainDB v2.0.0b9 has been around for quite a while. Recently we have updated
Tendermint supported version to v0.31.5 which has incompatible blockchain.
Despite the fact that we have defined instructions on chain migration, no one
expected to migrate to incompatible chain within patch version range. So there
is a demand for Tendermint v0.22.8 compatibility among BigchainDB users.
Work has been done:
bigchaindb-abci package was upgraded to support multiple API versions.
New configuration field stating tendermint version was added.

- Hard-wire the supported Tendermint version(s) right in the code of BigchainDB Server. Check the version of Tendermint and disconnect if Tendermint version is an unsupported one.
- Expose a CLI command bigchaindb tendermint-version to display the supported Tendermint versions.
- PR also takes care the long list of warnings we get when we run tests.
- Updated deprecated pymongo methods
- Do not call pytest fixtures directly.
- Also added the doc for the new cli command
* Problem: we have unused and outdated fixtures
Solution: clean up fixtures and tests accordingly
* Problem: there are still unused fixtures
Solution: remove Merlin keys
* Problem: There are unnecessary markers
Solution: remove the tendermint marker for tests
* Problem: The commit mode behaves incorrectly.
Solution: Parse the Tendermint response properly. The functionality was disabled in https://github.com/bigchaindb/bigchaindb/pull/2235/files#diff-c6511560546a7dc577e7e647b5bfdaceL68 and was not fixed since then.
* Add a test case for the sync mode.
* Do not strictly expect deliver_tx in the response.
* Fix post_mock in web/test_transactions.py.
* Check for the error field first.
* Problem: Source files contain no license info
Solution: Add comments with SPDX license info to source files
* Python 3 files don't need # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
* Problem: Validator set not tracked by BigchainDB
Solution: BigchainDB depends on tendermint's RPC API to get the validator set
which is not avaiable during replay so the validators set should be tracked
inside BigchainDB
* Problem: Unclear code and documentation
Solution: Fix decode_validator and docs strings
* Problem: Doc strings missing
Solution: Add doc string for store_validato_set
* Problem: core.py contains an unused class, `Bigchain`
Solution: Remove core.py. Refactor BigchainDB Class to remove inheritance from Bigchain.

* Fixed flake8 complaint about too many blank lines
* Attempting to fix Sphinx docs. This may result in some redundant commits, as I don't know what I'm doing, and I can't experiment without running the CI...
Sorry in advance!

Sorry in advance!
* Updating from master changed BigchainDB.process_post_response to a private method, so I had to align with that.
* Fixed a couple stale references to bigchaindb.Bigchain in docstrings
* Missed a reference to `Bigchain` in a patch call...
* Problem: BigchainDB class should be part of project root
Solution: Removed the /tendermint directory and moved its contents to project root
* Problem: Flake8 complained that imports were not at the top of the file
Solution: Had to play around with the order of imports to avoid cyclic dependencies, but its working and style compliant now
* Problem: Stale reference to /tendermint directory in the index
Solution: Removed the references to /tendermint
* Problem: Flake8 complaining of unused import in __init__.py
Solution: The import is there so I can import App directly from bigchaindb, rather than from bigchaindb.core (which I think improves code readability. I added a # noqa to silence Flake8.
* Problem: Stale references to `bigchaindb.tendermint.BigchainDB` in the rst files cause Sphinx to fail
Solution: Updated the autodoc files to use `bigchaindb.BigchainDB` instead
* Problem: Stale reference to the `tendermint` directory in an @patch in a disabled test
Solution: Updated the @patch for completeness

Solution: Updated the @patch for completeness
* Problem: Upsert validator not migrated to Tendermint 0.19.0
Solution: Migrate the same to Tendermint 0.19.0
* Problem: There are no tests for public key encoding/decoding
Solution: Add necessary tests
