Title: Added option that prints the hex value of each transaction when dumping a block

This feature is useful when debugging a program that parses the output of the 'getmemorypool' RPC command, as the feature allows seeing hex values for transactions for an already accepted block (instead of the yet-to-be-submitted block that 'getmemorypool' returns). This allows one to know whether his program parses the hex transaction values correctly (because if that is the case, the Merkle root one calculates will be the same as that of the printed block).
