Before this, when the server starts on bitcoin chain, it waits for the blockchain scanner to fully sync with the blockchain.
Then, when the wallet is creates/restores/unlocked, again the server waits for the wallet to be fully in sync.
This adds changes so that the chain syncing is done in the background and until the wallet is not in sync and unlocked, the app service generating rounds is not even started.
This also adds safeguard check on all btc wallet apis to make sure the wallet is ready before doing anything and prevent panics.
Closes #349.
Please @louisinger @tiero review this.
