fa9112aac0 Remove utxo db upgrade code (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
It is not possible to upgrade Bitcoin Core pre-segwit (pre-0.13.1) to a recent version without a full IBD from scratch after commit 19a56d1519 (released in version 22.0).
Any Bitcoin Core version with the new database format after commit 1088b02f0c (released in version 0.15), can upgrade to any version that is supported as of today.
This leaves the versions 0.13.1-0.14.x. Even though those versions are unsupported, some users with an existing datadir may want to upgrade to a recent version. However, it seems reasonable to simply ask them to `-reindex` to run a full IBD from scratch. This allows us to remove the utxo db upgrade code.

This change is a prerequisite for the following bumping Qt minimum
version to 5.11.3. It is required as bionic has Qt 5.9.5.
Effectively, this also changes:
- gcc from 8.4.0 to 8.3.0
- python from 3.6.5 to 3.7.3
Our minimum required GCC is GCC 8, and this change in required for
changes like #23839 which take advantage of flags introduced in that
version of GCC.
This should have been included as part of
182de7ba10.

Pull request description:
Disabling the new consensus code at runtime is fine, but potentially fragile and incomplete. Fix that by giving the option to run with a version that has been compiled without any taproot code.

An earlier version of #16546 used both --with-boost-process and --enable-external-signer, which was simplified to only use the latter. However I forgot to update CI, so the external signer tests were not run.
This fixes issue #19388. The changes are as follows:
- Add a new flag to configure, --enable-fuzz-binary, which allows building test/fuzz/fuzz regardless of whether we are building to do actual fuzzing
- Set -DPROVIDE_MAIN_FUNCTION whenever --enable-fuzz is no
- Add the following libraries to FUZZ_SUITE_LD_COMMON:
- LIBBITCOIN_WALLET
- SQLLITE_LIBS
- BDB_LIBS
- if necessary, some or all of:
- NATPMP_LIBS
- MINIUPNPC_LIBS
- LIBBITCOIN_ZMQ / ZMQ_LIBS
