Add posibility to set pubkey instead of address #180

Because it is required to use pubkey for POS coins, please add possibility to use pubkey as pool's address instead of normal addresses, so coins can be mined if wallet is outside server.

Currently, wallets needs to be on coin's daemon and NOMP uses validateaddress to get pubkey. There is validatepubkey to do validation (I am not sure all clients have it).

This can be applied for private mining or non-standard payment system.

An "address" is kind of typo-safe to a certain level, a pubkey isn't. You can always skip the validation and just submit your result to the daemon.
