Returns information about a block by block number.
Parameters
Params - a string array containing (required):
QUANTITY|TAG(hex string|string, required) - integer of a block number, or the string "earliest", "latest" or "pending", as in the default block parameter.
Boolean(boolean, required) - if true it returns the full transaction objects, if false only the hashes of the transactions.
Returns
Object - A block object, or null when no block was found:

gasLimit(hex string). QUANTITY - the maximum gas allowed in this block.
gasUsed(hex string). QUANTITY - the total used gas by all transactions in this block.
timestamp(hex string). QUANTITY - the unix timestamp for when the block was collated.
