Support a manageable block generation rate for Bitcoin nodes in simnet mode #10

Could be implicit via CPU constraints or could be explicit in configuration.

Explicit example: Enable the user to specify an expected block generation rate using number of blocks per 10 mins. Default could be 1, which would simulate the natural block production rate for the main Bitcoin network. The setting could also be view as a rate multiplier, e.g. 10 would mean both 10 blocks per 10 mins and also a 10x multiplier on the natural rate.
