Migration to web3 format (create account)

[skywinder]

With web3js v1.0.0 you can create accounts with web3.eth.accounts.create(); and access the public address and private key with newWallet.address and newWallet.privateKey.

We have to implement the same thing in web3j (@ligi) and web3swift

Here an usage example:

newWallet = web3.eth.accounts.create() 
// access the public address 
newWallet.address
//private key:
newWallet.privateKey
