Specification

This adds the 3 BIPs that describe the consensus rules and (basic) wallet operation for the Taproot proposal (https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2019-May/016914.html). There have been several discussions on the mailing list on the original idea, and this proposal specifically, including ones that resulting in significant changes being made to the proposal. Furthermore, a structured review session (https://github.com/ajtowns/taproot-review) with many participants was held, resulting in many comments and improvements.

I believe it's time to actually publish them as BIPs.

An (unreviewed) reference implementation is available (https://github.com/sipa/bitcoin/commits/taproot), which I'll open as a (WIP) PR as soon as there are BIP numbers to refer to.
