Zebra 1.0.0-beta.14

This release contains a variety of CI fixes, test fixes and dependency updates.
It contains two breaking changes:

• the recommended disk capacity for Zebra is now 300 GB, and the recommended network bandwidth is 100 GB per month, and
• when no command is provided on the command line, zebrad automatically starts syncing (like zcashd).

The sync performance of lightwalletd is also improved.
