* Problem: `run_upsert_validator_approve` was getting the voting power in a convoluted way
Solution: Changed it to get the voting power from the election outputs

Solution: Changed the wording a bit
* Problem: Config settings docs missing some configs & inconsistent
Solution: Document some undocumented config settings and make the config settings docs page more consistent

Solution: Add comments with SPDX license info to source files
* Python 3 files don't need # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
Solution: In the docs page listing the Community-Driven Libraries and Tools, make it clear that they might not work with the latest version of BigchainDB. Make it a warning rather than a note.
* Problem: Need a method to initiate a new upsert-validator election
Solution: Added subcommand `new` to `upsert_validator`
* Problem: Changes to upsert-validator needed to be reflected in the docs
Solution: Wrote a section for `upsert-validator new`

- Add a note that one can use `asset?search` or `asset/?search`, and the same for metadata.

* 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: Stale reference to /tendermint directory in the index
Solution: Removed the references to /tendermint

* Update version and parameters for 0.22.3
- Sync docker-compose
- Power should be a "string" not a int,uint

* Make changes in tendermint/lib.py instead of deprecated core.py
- Also remove redundant info from docs about default values
* Fix docsserver automethod
Solution: Remove the current pub/sub based logging infra as this model is no longer necessary. This can now be replaced by a simple system level logging config.
* Copyedit simple-network-setup completeness & grammar
* Problem: Member doesn't know their BigchainDB Root URL
Solution: Add a section to tell the Member their BigchainDB Root URL
* Problem: Operator doesn't know how to reset their node
Solution: Add a section with commands an operator can use to reset their node
* Problem: Repeated previous sentence w/o changing it
Solution: Repeat previous sentence but change 'BigchainDB' to 'Tendermint' and delete the parenthetical sentence about MongoDB

Solution
As per Tendermint 0.16.0 , --p2p.seeds is now --p2p.persistent_peers. Update bigchaindb/tendermint container to use that configuration. Also disable --p2p.pex, we currently don't want the peer exchange.
Solution
Since BigchainDB and Tendermint are so tightly coupled we need to introduce a process supervisor to make them act like a single microservice, so that if BigchainDB crashes, Tendermint does as well and both are restarted and Tendermint requests a connection towards the proxy app.
In Kubernetes, they can be exposed as part of a one POD.
For BigchainDB as a system service/process, we need to introduce a process supervisor such as systemd.
This PR only solves the former.
Changes
Upgrade deployment from Tendermint v0.12.0 to v0.19.0
Update some documentation
Fix nginx-http entrypoint issues.
Update generate-configs.sh script to handle config generation without https-certificates.
Update Dockerfile to process dependency links introduced by abci
Integrate BigchainDB and Tendermint as a single microservice.
This required making BigchainDB to be exposed as a statefulset.
Introduce new liveness probe checks.
