Truffle integration

[lrettig]

Requires #7

I'm stuck on the issue that truffle and cpp-ethereum (aleth) don't play nice, even regardless of Ewasm. When I try to deploy+test a basic truffle unboxed solidity contract onto my local aleth instance, I get the following RPC errors:

2018-08-01 21:40:14  rpc {"error":{"code":0,"data":null,"message":"Unknown account."},"id":14,"jsonrpc":"2.0"}
2018-08-01 21:40:14  rpc {"error":{"code":-32602,"message":"INVALID_PARAMS: Invalid method parameters (invalid name and/or type) recognised"},"id":1533174014721,"jsonrpc":"2.0"}

Worked around the "Unknown account" issue (see ethereum/aleth#5160). aleth is kinda sorta working with truffle for vanilla solc, on to trying to get it working with an Ewasm contract.

Is your work on this already available somewhere or could you make it available?

For a solc compiler testing framework (SOLTIX), I'd like to add an option to use aleth instead of ganache-cli as a truffle blockchain backend. Ideally I'd like to have a self-contained shell script that starts an aleth instance which plays well with truffle for simple contract deployments, transactions, and listing emited events. A kinda sorta working setup for vanilla solc would be a great starting point.

Thanks!
