Error message about missing matplotlib is only correct in case of
exception during `import matplotlib`. If there is fatal exception
later, it is some other issue and it's better display it as is. On a
RaspiBolt for me `import matplotlib.pyplot as plt` causes
"ImportError: libopenjp2.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory".
To facilitate easier management by users and to
follow generally accepted standards, this PR moves
the following all to user home directory, subdir
.joinmarket :
joinmarket.cfg file
wallets/ directory
logs/ directory
cmtdata/ directory
commitmentlist file
User can override location with --datadir option.
An info message is added on startup showing location.
Previous to this commit, the jmbitcoin package was accessed via
a file in jmclient `btc.py` which was originally added as an
interface to allow the client to use a non-jmbitcoin package to
provide the implementation; while this idea is useful, the way
it was implemented was not, moreover it is not currently used
and contained duplicated code that was unmanaged. Also, the
original usage of this was only by the electrum plugin, which
has currently been abandoned. This simplifies the code and
avoids spurious error messages. Note that most of the changes
are a result of pulling the logging function directly from the
jmbase package instead of indirectly via this interface (which
was unnecessary and not connected with jmbitcoin).
