jholdstock 1e66b6ff59 Downgrade dcrwallet dep to v3.
This downgrade changes StakePoolTicketFee back to the version which does
not consider DCP-0012 activation.

This resolves an issue where Decrediton sometimes fails to pay VSP fees,
caused by Decrediton and vspd independently calculating the fee amount
using different versions of the algorithm.

Releasing the new algorithm will need to be more carefully coordinated,
potentially requiring both client and server sides to be updated in
sync.
