ab1ea29ba1 refactor: make GetRand a template, remove GetRandInt (pasta)
Pull request description:
makes GetRand a template for which any integral type can be used, where the default behavior is to return a random integral up to the max of the integral unless a max is provided.
This simplifies a lot of code from GetRand(std::numeric_limits<uint64_t>::max() -> GetRand<uint64_t>()

This distribution is used for more than just the next inv send, so make
the name more generic.
Also rename to "exponential" to avoid the confusion that this is a
poisson distribution.

Pull request description:
This PR introduces mempool tracking of unbroadcast transactions and periodic reattempts at initial broadcast. This is a part of the rebroadcast project, and a standalone privacy win.
The current rebroadcast logic is terrible for privacy because 1. only the source wallet rebroadcasts transactions and 2. it does so quite frequently. In the current system, if a user submits a transaction that does not immediately get broadcast to the network (eg. they are offline), this "rebroadcast" behavior is the safety net that can actually serve as the initial broadcast. So, keeping the attempts frequent is important for initial delivery within a reasonable timespan.
This PR aims to improve # 2 by reducing the wallet rebroadcast frequency to ~1/day from ~1/15 min. It achieves this by separating the notion of initial broadcast from rebroadcasts. With these changes, the mempool tracks locally submitted transactions & periodically reattempts initial broadcast. Transactions submitted via the wallet or RPC are added to an "unbroadcast" set & are removed when a peer sends a `getdata` request, or the transaction is removed from the mempool. Every 10-15 minutes, the node reattempts an initial broadcast. This enables reducing the wallet rebroadcast frequency while ensuring the transactions will be propagated to the network.
For privacy improvements around # 1, please see #16698.
Thank you to gmaxwell for the idea of how to break out this subset of functionality (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16698#issuecomment-571399346)

55b2cb199c random: mark RandAddPeriodic and SeedPeriodic as noexcept (fanquake)
461e547877 doc: correct random.h docs after #17270 (fanquake)
Pull request description:
The usage of `MilliSleep()` in SeedPeriodic (previously SeedSleep) was
[removed](d61f2bb076) in #17270, meaning it, and its users can now be marked `noexcept`.
This also corrects the docs in random.h for some of the changes in #17270.

On the ::SLOW path we would use OpenSSL as an additional source of
random bytes. This commit removes that functionality. Note that this was
always only an additional source, and that we never checked the return
value
RAND_bytes(): https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/man3/RAND_bytes.html
RAND_bytes() puts num cryptographically strong pseudo-random bytes into buf.
* Instead of calling RandAddSeedSleep anytime the scheduler goes
idle, call its replacement (RandAddSeedPeriodic) just once per
minute. This has better guarantees of actually being run, and
helps limit how frequently the dynamic env data is gathered.
* Since this code runs once per minute regardless now, we no
longer need to keep track of the last time strengthening was
run; just do it always.
* Make strengthening time context dependent (100 ms at startup,
10 ms once per minute afterwards).

1d207bc46f Add hash strengthening to the RNG (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
This patch improves the built-in RNG using hash strengthening.
At startup, and once every minute, 32 bytes of entropy are produced from the RNG, repeatedly hashed using SHA512 for 10ms, and then fed back into the RNG, together with high-precision timestamps obtained every 1000 iterations.

This introduces support for autodetecting and using the RdSeed instruction.
In addition:
* In SeedFast, only 64 bits of entropy are generated through RdRand (256 was relatively slow).
* In SeedStartup, 256 bits of entropy are generated, using RdSeed (preferably) or RdRand (otherwise).
It includes the following policy changes:
* All GetRand* functions seed the stack pointer and rdrand result
(in addition to the performance counter)
* The periodic entropy added by the idle scheduler now seeds stack pointer,
rdrand and perfmon data (once every 10 minutes) in addition to
just a sleep timing.
* The entropy added when calling GetStrongRandBytes no longer includes
the once-per-10-minutes perfmon data on windows (it is moved to the
idle scheduler instead, where latency matters less).
Other changes:
* OpenSSL is no longer seeded directly anywhere. Instead, any generated
randomness through our own RNG is fed back to OpenSSL (after an
additional hashing step to prevent leaking our RNG state).
* Seeding that was previously done directly in RandAddSeedSleep is now
moved to SeedSleep(), which is indirectly invoked through ProcRand
from RandAddSeedSleep.
* Seeding that was previously done directly in GetStrongRandBytes()
is now moved to SeedSlow(), which is indirectly invoked through
ProcRand from GetStrongRandBytes().

fbf327b Minimal code changes to allow msvc compilation. (Aaron Clauson)
Pull request description:
These changes are required to allow the Bitcoin source to build with Microsoft's C++ compiler (#11562 is also required).
I looked around for a better place for the typedef of ssize_t which is in random.h. The best candidate looks like src/compat.h but I figured including that header in random.h is a bigger change than the typedef. Note that the same typedef is in at least two other places including the OpenSSL and Berkeley DB headers so some of the Bitcoin code already picks it up.

Move the OS random test to a sanity check function that is called every
time bitcoind is initialized.
Keep `src/test/random_tests.cpp` for the case that later random tests
are added, and keep a rudimentary test that just calls the sanity check.
