Support for ordinary base58 Bitcoin addresses and private keys.

§Example: creating a new address from a randomly-generated key pair

use bitcoin::network::constants::Network;
use bitcoin::util::address::Address;
use bitcoin::PublicKey;
use bitcoin::secp256k1::Secp256k1;
use bitcoin::secp256k1::rand::thread_rng;

// Generate random key pair.
let s = Secp256k1::new();
let public_key = PublicKey::new(s.generate_keypair(&mut thread_rng()).1);

// Generate pay-to-pubkey-hash address.
let address = Address::p2pkh(&public_key, Network::Bitcoin);
