Support parallel operation #18

Hi, Logging this as a feature request. Feel free to ignore.

Today, I tried getting detail of all transactions in a block and it took half an hour. I feel it would be good moneywagon can natively support parallel operations

get_single_transaction_multi should does parallel requests to get tx details
can use a framework like tornado, eventlet
can be applied to other functions also

This is not a bad idea. Maybe a new argument could be added to the get_block function, full_fetch=True, which will fetch the full transaction (via get_single_transaction), instead of just a list of txids. As far as doing them in parallel, there already is code for that in "private mode" using the module futures.
