Add height in rpc getwork #711

Closed sherlock-shi-x closed 5 years ago

sherlock-shi-x commented 5 years ago

When miners/stratums want to get new block template, they have to use rpc request twice.

'eth_getBlockByNumber' for height
'eth_getWork' for pow informations

After receiving result of 'eth_getWork', the real blockNumber right now may be different to the response of 'eth_getBlockByNumber'. Just call rpc once and get the complete informations.
