Discrepancies between address types in Bitcoin Core and Blocksci #112

@ghost

Description

I've noticed a couple of discrepancies between the address types parsed in Bitcoin Core (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/script/standard.cpp) and those in Blocksci (https://citp.github.io/BlockSci/reference/addresses/types.html):

  1. The "witness_unknown" type in Bitcoin Core (mostly in place for backwards compatibility for new versions of segwit scripts). Will this be supported in future versions of Blocksci?
  2. The "Multisig_Pubkey" address type in Blocksci (distinguished from "plain" Multisig and Pubkey), which doesn't have a direct analogue in Core that I can see. Is there any documentation for this?

Thanks for the great work on this fantastic project!
