Testnet Compatibility & Better Password Enforcement

The API wrappers have been updated to support URI changes, primarily for switching the mode. Due to issues with weak passwords in brain wallets it is better to enforce stronger tokens. This is implemented by way of Shannon's Entropy to score the probability distribution of chars and threshold at a reasonable level.

@gregdhill Thanks for the patch.

I think testnet makes more sense as its own backend. It's also probably better to make a separate copy of the wallet, so as not to complicate the main code. I will do it later today.

Also thanks for the entropy calculation, it's a good idea indeed!

HTTP is an outdated version, added redirect to HTTPS instead.
