Merge #780: Change elements mode to activating BIP9 signaling based on height

6fc3fe0 Change elements mode to activating BIP9 signaling based on height (Gregory Sanders)

Pull request description:

  When based on block time, it's really hard to engineer principled tests for activation of consensus changes.

  resolves #779
