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.

ac323a7222 build: Switch to llvm buinutils for Android builds (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
The new Long Term Support release of the Android NDK is [available](https://groups.google.com/g/android-ndk-announce/c/MS6Qoub0DKE/m/Zfp5Ys8eAAAJ) since 2021-08-11:
> As r23 is the new LTS, the support windows for r21 and r22 have now ended.
On master (8ae4ba481c), dependency build fails because it expects GNU Binutils are present in the Android NDK. In [fact](https://android.googlesource.com/platform/ndk/+/master/docs/BuildSystemMaintainers.md#binutils):
> GNU Binutils remains available up to and including r22. All binutils tools with the exception of the assembler (GAS) were removed in r23. GAS was removed in r24.
This PR switches our depends build system to llvm binutils. The usage of `llvm-ar` and `llvm-ranlib` tools effectively makes r21 the minimum supported version of NDK.
With this PR:
- building depends against NDK r23 LTS now is possible with `NO_QT=1`
- building the `qt` package in depends against NDK r23 LTS still fails:
```
Creating qmake...
...
ERROR: Cannot detect Android NDK toolchain.
Please use -android-toolchain-version to specify it.
```
The issue with the `qt` package is going to be addressed in another PR.

We need to append-to rather than set CXXFLAGS, otherwise we loose -O2 &
-pipe. Currently this results in zeromq being built without optimizations
at all (or whatever the compiler would default too, essentially always -O0).
Bdb is the same, for the CXX portion of its code. C code has been built
with -O2.
Boost has actually been uneffected because it receives -O3 from it's own
build flags.

If we're cross-compiling for darwin on aarch64 hardware, we need to
use a Clang that will run on that hardware.
