Crate bitcoinconsensus

This project builds the libbitcoinconsensus library from Bitcoin’s C++ sources using Cargo and provides Rust bindings to its API.

Quoting from bitcoin/doc/shared-libraries.md:

The purpose of this library is to make the verification functionality that is critical to Bitcoin’s consensus available to other applications, e.g. to language bindings.

And that is exactly what this library is, the Rust bindings to bitcoinconsensus.
