[bisq-network/bisq] Support for Bitcoin Bech32 SegWit addresses (#1139)

[Manfred Karrer]

@nopara73 
We have now a BitcoinJ developer but there are other high prio tasks we need to work on over the next months. Segwit support in BitcoinJ is in development from Andreas Schildbach, I am not sure how far it is and how much is missing. 

> Does "lack of dev resources" mean lack of funding for a developer to work on it or it's rather lack of right people for the job?

I would say both, beside @oscarguindzberg I am not aware of any available BitcoinJ developer (who knows the library really well) and we cannot afford atm to fund for a second dev in that area. Though as soon the DAO is out and BSQ is successful we might try to find a second dev in that area to speed up development.
