Release v0.100.0-rc4

[doitian]

This is an RC version to preview the changes in the next release.

The version v0.100.0 will bring hard fork upgrades to CKB. These features will be enabled when starting a new dev chain, but they are disabled when running testnet and mainnet so it is still compatible with the current mainnet (Lina) and testnet (Aggron). However, it will introduce many breaking changes:

• The field uncles_hash in header will be renamed to extra_hash for all JSON RPC methods.
• The field hash_type has a new allowed value "data1" but it is only valid after hard fork activation.
• The default value of the parameter OutputsValidator in the JSON RPC send_transaction is well_known_scripts_only now. See feat: change default OutputsValidator to well_known_scripts_only #2821 for details.

See nervosnetwork/rfcs#242 for an overview of all the hard fork features.
