Some uses of non-threadsafe `strerror` have snuck into the code since
they were removed in #4152. Add a wrapper `SysErrorString` for
thread-safe strerror alternatives and replace all uses of `strerror`
with this.

This adds a `-daemonwait` flag that does the same as `-daemon` except
it, from a user perspective, backgrounds the process only after
initialization is complete.
This can be useful when the process launching bitcoind wants to
guarantee that either the RPC server is running, or that initialization
failed, before continuing. The exit code indicates the initialization
result.
This replaces the use of the libc function `daemon()` by a custom
implementation which is inspired by the glibc implementation, but also
creates a pipe from the child to the parent process for communication.
An additional advantage of having our own `daemon()` implementation is
that no MACOS-specific pragmas are needed anymore to silence a
deprecation warning.
Replace the 200ms polling loop with a faster and more efficient waiting
operation.
This was tried a few times before, but given up every time because
solutions use a condition variable which is not safe for use in signals
as they need to be reentrant.
On UNIX-ish OSes, use a safe way: a pipe. When shutdown is requested
write a dummy byte to the pipe. Waiting for shutdown is a matter of a
blocking read from the pipe.
On Windows, there are no signals so using a condition variable is safe.
Adjusted version flag behavior in bitcoin-tx, bitcoin-wallet, and
bitcoind to match. Added functionality in gen-manpages.sh to warning when
attempting to generate man pages for binaries built from a dirty
branch.
Add AppInitInterfaces function so wallet chain and chain client interfaces are
created earlier during initialization. This is needed in the next commit to
allow the gui splash screen to be able to register for wallet events through a
dedicated WalletClient interface instead managing wallets indirectly through
the Node interface. This only works if the wallet client interface is created
before the splash screen needs to use it.
Persistent settings are used in followup PRs #15936 to unify gui settings
between bitcoin-qt and bitcoind, and #15937 to add a load_on_startup flag to
the loadwallet RPC and maintain a dynamic list of wallets that should be loaded
on startup that also can be shared between bitcoind and bitcoin-qt.
Don't require urlDecode function in wallet code since urlDecode implementation
currently uses libevent. Just call urlDecode indirectly though URL_DECODE
function pointer constant if available.
In bitcoind and bitcoin-qt, URL_DECODE is implemented and used to interpret RPC
wallet requests. In bitcoin-wallet, URL_DECODE is null to avoid depending on
libevent.
This is safe because MilliSleep is never executed in a boost::thread,
the only type of thread that is interruptible.
* The RPC server uses std::thread
* The wallet is either executed in an RPC thread or the main thread
* bitcoin-cli, benchmarks and tests are only one thread (the main thread)

Pull request description:
This change is mainly a naming / organization change intended to simplify #10102. It:
- Renames struct InitInterfaces to struct NodeContext and moves it from
src/init.h to src/node/context.h. This is a cosmetic change intended to make
the point of the struct more obvious.
- Gets rid of BanMan and ConnMan globals making them NodeContext members
instead. Getting rid of these globals has been talked about in past as a way
to implement testing and simulations. Making them NodeContext members is a
way of keeping them accessible without the globals.
- Splits g_rpc_interfaces global into g_rpc_node and g_rpc_chain globals. This
better separates node and wallet rpc methods. Node RPC methods should have
access NodeContext, while wallet RPC methods should only have indirect access
to node functionality via interfaces::Chain.
- Adds NodeContext& references to interfaces::Chain class and the
interfaces::MakeChain() function. This is needed to access ConnMan and BanMan
instances without the globals.
- Gets rid of redundant Node and Chain instances in Qt tests. This is
needed due to the previous MakeChain change, and also makes test setup a
little more straightforward. More cleanup could be done in the future, but it
will require deduplication of bitcoind, bitcoin-qt, and TestingSetup init
code.

Separated from #8994 as suggested by MarcoFalke and Sjors in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8994#issuecomment-522555390
You can't really test the qt changes on their own, so to test them, use #8994 .

Fix#15240, see: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/15240#issuecomment-487353760Fix#15745
Fix broken `feature_config_args.py` tests (disabled by MarcoFalke@fabe28a0cdcfa13e0e595a0905e3642a960d3077). All test are enabled now.
This PR is alternative to #13621.
User's `$HOME` directory is not touched unnecessarily now.
~To make reviewing easier only `bitcoind` code is modified (neither `bitcoin-cli` nor `bitcoin-qt`).~

Harmonize the user-facing output of the `bitcoind -daemon`, `bitcoin-cli help stop`, `bitcoin-cli stop`, and `bitcoind -version` commands to be consistent with each other as well as with the "Bitcoin Core is probably already running" messages, e.g. `git grep 'probably already running.")'`.
This prevents premature tries to access or create the default datadir.
This is useful when the -datadir option is specified and the default
datadir is unreachable.
This work is prerequisite to attaching thread names to log lines and deadlock
debug utilities. This code allows setting of an "internal" threadname per
thread on platforms where thread_local is available.
This commit also moves RenameThread() out of a more general module and adds a
numeric suffix to disambiguate between threads with the same name. It
explicitly names a few main threads using the new util::ThreadRename().
This commit does not change behavior. All it does is pass new function
parameters.
