Run Docker Image

# if you previously have synced data, recommend following ways to set up
docker cp [previous container ID]:/code/pyquarkchain/quarkchain/cluster/data [/path/to/hold/data/tmp]
# then mount migrated data by adding -v flag
docker run ... -v [/path/to/hold/data/tmp]:/code/pyquarkchain/quarkchain/cluster/data [image ID]

Change of Mining

Starting from this release external_miner_manager.sh will NOT mine root chain. Also removed -t flag which defaults to 1.
