This is required so that we can test for control flow in our ELF
security checks. Otherwise test_bitcoin will fail, as it has a main that
is provided by Boost, and wont have been built with
-fcf-protection=full.
While here simplify to using -fcf-protection for all x86_64 builds.
The sys/sdt.h header is required to build Bitcoin Core with Userspace
Statically Defined Tracing support. Systemtap version 4.5 (May 2021)
is used as the most recent version 4.6 (Nov 2021) fails to build.
See e.g. https://sourceware.org/git/?p=systemtap.git;a=commit;h=1d3653936fc1fd13135a723a27e6c7e959793ad0
As Systemtap itself is not needed, the build steps (configure and
make) are skipped. We require fewer build dependecies and don't
waste time building depends we don't end up using. However, the
configure step would normally processes sys/sdt-config.h.in. The
resulting sdt-config.h defines _SDT_ASM_SECTION_AUTOGROUP_SUPPORT
(either 0 or 1 to indicate whether the assembler supports "?" in
.pushsection directives). For now, we assume all currently used
assemblers supports this feature and remove the check from the
sys/sdt.h header file in a patch.

d3b0f82a43 build: Fix regression introduced in PR23603 (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
It appears 7629efcc2c from bitcoin/bitcoin#23603 introduced a regression in build tool flag evaluation.
On macOS system:
- pre-PR23603 master (ae017b8160):
```
% make -C depends print-darwin_CXXFLAGS
darwin_CXXFLAGS=-pipe
% make -C depends print-host_CXXFLAGS
host_CXXFLAGS=-pipe
```
- the current master (369978686e):
```
% make -C depends print-darwin_CXXFLAGS
darwin_CXXFLAGS=-pipe
% make -C depends print-host_CXXFLAGS
host_CXXFLAGS=-arch x86_64
```
It's obvious a flag being set in `depends/hosts/darwin.mk`, i.e., `-pipe`, is lost.
With this PR:
```
% make -C depends print-darwin_CXXFLAGS
darwin_CXXFLAGS=-pipe
% make -C depends print-host_CXXFLAGS
host_CXXFLAGS=-pipe -arch x86_64
```

11736dbe3d build, qt: Hardcode last modified timestamp in Qt RCC (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
Our Guix build system sets the [`SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH`](https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/) and propagates it to the depends build subsystem. Its [default value](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/contrib/guix/README.md#recognized-environment-variables) is the top commit timestamp.
After bumping Qt version up to 5.15.2, due to [this](1ffcca4cc2) change, every time they are going to make new Guix builds for another branch/commit they must ensure that the `qt` package will be rebuilt from scratch. Otherwise, Bitcoin Core GUI binaries will be non-deterministic.
Such behavior makes working with Guix builds suboptimal.
This PR fixes the described issue by patching Qt RCC and hardcoding last modified timestamps with `1`.
It's worth to mention that this change is compatible with a possible future [improvement](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21995) which makes each dependency package reproducible.
A drawback of such an approach is not currently applied to our project, as it effectively makes [QML cache files](https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-57182) useless. I can't say it's a problem for the https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui-qml project.
---
**A note for thinkers:** For now this change is enough as only Qt source contains `SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH`. But in general we should re-think about treating the `SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH` variable in the depends build subsystem. For instance, its default value could be the output of `git log --format=%at -1 -- depends`.

8494dcae0e Replace $(AT) with .SILENCE. (Dmitry Goncharov)
Pull request description:
This reduces the amount of syntax noise in the makefiles.
Setting V=1 still enables verbose logging.
The only noticeable difference in behavior is that, unless V=1 is specified, make won't print its own messages like
make: Nothing to be done for 'all', make: 'all' is up to date, or touch <file>, if -t is specified.

19f3896c9a build: Fix x86_64 <-> arm64 cross-compiling for macOS (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
Currently, on master (111c3e06b3), dependencies are built for the build system architecture, not the provided host.

On M1-based macOS Monterey 12.0.1 (21A559) the `boost` package building fails with multiple errors like that:
```

...
error: option 'cf-protection=return' cannot be specified on this target
error: option 'cf-protection=branch' cannot be specified on this target

ACK 19f3896c9a - this is definitely cleaner than the approach in #22506. I've tested the x86_64 -> arm64 and arm64 -> x86_64 cross-compiles. Going to go-ahead and merge this given it's scoped to building for darwin targets, on darwin. Not sure if this is something we'll actually see used very often.

6575d354c8 build: Bump Fonconfig version up to 2.12.6 (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
This PR gets rid of `remove_char_width_usage.patch`.
Some additional observations:
1. Newer Fontconfig versions (2.13.0 and 2.13.1) introduce a new dependency, `uuid`, in the [`7b48fd3dd406b926f0e5240b211f72197ed538a9`](7b48fd3dd4) commit
2. In Fonconfig 2.13.1 (the current stable) excludes the `fcobjshash.h` from the distributive archive (see [`31269e3589e0e6432d12f55db316f4c720a090b5`](31269e3589)), that makes our `gperf_header_regen.patch` unusable, and requires `gperf` as a dependency.

ACK 6575d354c8 - from the best I can determine this doesn't have any versioning / ABI implications. The ABI difference between 2.12.1 and 2.12.6 is two symbol additions, neither of which are used by Qt. Fontconfig seems to be better at maintaining backwards compatibility compared to a library like Freetype.

2f356a0ca8 scripted-diff: Drop Darwin version for better maintainability (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
After this PR, any macOS tools version bumping in the future will touch fewer files in the repo.
Pointing a Darwin version for the `--host` system does not matter for the following reasons:
- in terms of the resulted binaries, we should only care about the minimum supported macOS version which is a separated parameter in our build system.
- in terms of the build system itself, the usage of the `$(host)` variable is self-consistent enough. Btw `$(host_os)` value already has the version dropped:
```
$ make -C depends --no-print-directory print-host_os HOST=x86_64-apple-darwin19
host_os=darwin
```

Very old shells suffered from bugs which meant that prefixing variables
with an "x" to ensure that the lefthand side of a comparison always
started with an alphanumeric character was needed. Modern shells don't
suffer from this issue (i.e Bash was fixed in 1996).
In any case, we've already got unprefixed checks used in our codebase,
i.e https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/configure.ac#L292,
and have dependencies (in depends) that also use unprefixed comparisons.
I think it's time that we can consolidate on not using the x-prefix
workaround. At best it's mostly just confusing.
