Pieter Wuille e65e61c812 Add some general std::vector utility functions
Added are:

* Vector(arg1,arg2,arg3,...) constructs a vector with the specified
  arguments as elements. The vector's type is derived from the
  arguments. If some of the arguments are rvalue references, they
  will be moved into place rather than copied (which can't be achieved
  using list initialization).

* Cat(vector1,vector2) returns a concatenation of the two vectors,
  efficiently moving elements when relevant.

Vector generalizes (and replaces) the Singleton function in
src/descriptor.cpp, and Cat replaces the Cat function in bech32.cpp
