This has been around since the introduction of autotools. However at
this point I'm not sure we'd every want to suppress all warnings when
performing a build, and given that CXX FLAGS will have been overriden
when cross-compiling for Windows (using depends), this would rarely,
if-ever be used anyways.
From https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html:
-w
Inhibit all warning messages.
As is, this sanity check doesn't seem to be testing fdelt_chk, because
passing a value of "0" to FD_SET wont cause the compiler to insert any
calls to fdelt_chk().
The documentation is a little misleading. If we actually triggered fdelt_chk
at runtime, bitcoind would abort. I think this check would be better replaced
(if possible) by additional checks in security-check.py.
The compiler may insert a call to fdelt_warn() (aliased with fdelt_chk
in glibc) at compile time if it can determine that an invalid value is
being passed to FD_SET.
These checks are essentially; value < 0 or value >= FD_SETSIZE along
with a check for wether the value is a compile time constant.
If the compiler can determine an invalid value is being passed, a call
to fdelt_warn will be inserted. Passing 0 should never cause a call to
be inserted.
You can check this after compiling:
```bash
objdump -dC bitcoind | grep sanity_fdelt
...
0000000000399d20 <sanity_test_fdelt()>:
399d20: 48 81 ec 98 00 00 00 sub $0x98,%rsp

399d6b: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
```
To test, you could modify this test to pass -1 to FD_SET, and check
that a call to fdelt_warn() is inserted, and that running bitcoind
fails. i.e:
```bash
0000000000399d20 <sanity_test_fdelt()>:
399d20: 48 81 ec 98 00 00 00 sub $0x98,%rsp

a029805f57 build: remove -Qunused-arguments workaround for clang + ccache (fanquake)
Pull request description:
This was added in 386efb7695 to address spammy Clang warnings when building with ccache.
The issue was addressed in [ccache 3.2](https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8118), and from a look at most major distros, it's only Debian Jessie that has a version of ccache older than that ([3.1](https://packages.debian.org/jessie/ccache)).
Therefore I think it's acceptable to drop this workaround, and re-enable warnings for unused driver arguments (when compiling using Clang and ccache).

Stop the build if a warning is emitted due to `-Wgnu` and
`--enable-werror` has been used. As usual - this would help notice such
a warning that is about to be introduced in new code.
This is a followup to

Given that we went through a [gitian build](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18681) to remember why this is the case, we might as well make a note of it in configure.ac.
[From #18681](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18681#issuecomment-615526634):
Looking at the Linux build log, this has failed with:
```bash

`__cxa_thread_atexit_impl` is used for [thread_local variable destruction](https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Destructor%20support%20for%20thread_local%20variables):
> To implement this support, glibc defines __cxa_thread_atexit_impl exclusively for use by libstdc++ (which has the __cxa_thread_atexit to wrap around it), that registers destructors for thread_local variables in a list. Upon thread or process exit, the destructors are called in reverse order in which they were added.
As suggested, this only became available in glibc 2.18. From the [2.18 release notes](https://sourceware.org/legacy-ml/libc-alpha/2013-08/msg00160.html):
> * Add support for calling C++11 thread_local object destructors on thread

Pull request description:
This fixes compile errors trying to build bitcoin-tx and bitcoin-wallet without libevent, which were reported by Luke Dashjr in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/18465
The fix avoiding `bitcoin-tx` dependency on libevent just adds a conditional build rule. This is implemented in the first commit (more details in commit description).
The fix avoiding `bitcoin-wallet` dependency on libevent requires minor code changes, because `bitcoin-wallet` (unlike `bitcoin-tx`) links against code that calls `urlDecode` / `evhttp_uridecode`. This fix is implemented in the second commit (again details in the commit description).

autotools and automake changes to support multiprocess execution.
This adds a new --enable-multiprocess flag, and build configuration code to
detect libraries needed for multiprocess support. The --enable-multiprocess
flag builds new bitcoin-node and bitcoin-gui executables, which are updated in
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10102 to communicate across processes.
But for now they are functionally equivalent to existing bitcoind and
bitcoin-qt executables.
Don't include util/url.cpp to libbitcoin_util.a when libevent isn't available.

sysctl() on *BSD takes a "const int *name", whereas sysctl() on macOS
it takes an "int *name". So our configure check and sysctl() detection on
macOS currently fails:
```bash
/usr/include/sys/sysctl.h:759:9: note: candidate function not viable:
no known conversion from 'const int [2]' to 'int *' for 1st argument
int sysctl(int *, u_int, void *, size_t *, void *, size_t);
```
This change removes the name argument from the sysctl() detection check,
meaning we will detect correctly on macOS and *BSD.
For consistency we also switch to using the more generic, non-const
version of the name parameter in the rest of our usage.
This change adds to the BITCOIN_QT_CONFIGURE script ability to use
pkg-config for MinGW. All of the non-pkg-config paths are removed as
needless.
If depends is built with DEBUG=1 the configure script fails to pickup

- for Windows host (regression)

Pull request description:
This updates leveldb to currently newest upstream commit 0c40829872:
- CRC32C hardware acceleration is now an external library [crc32c](https://github.com/google/crc32c). This adds acceleration on ARM, and should be faster on x86 because of using prefetch. It also makes it easy to support similar instruction sets on other platforms in the future.
- Thread handling uses C++11, instead of platform specific code.
- Native windows environment was added. No need to maintain our own hacky one, anymore.
- Upstream now builds using CMake. This doesn't mean we need to use that (phew), but internal configuration changed to a a series of checks, instead of OS profiles. This means the blanket error "Cannot build leveldb for $host. Please file a bug report' is removed.
All changes: a53934a3ae...0c40829872
Pretty much all our changes have been subsumed by upstream, so we figured it was cleaner to start over with a new branch from upstream with the still-relevant patches applied: https://github.com/bitcoin-core/leveldb/tree/bitcoin-fork-new
There's quite some testing to be done (see below). See https://github.com/bitcoin-core/leveldb/issues/25 and https://github.com/bitcoin-core/leveldb/pull/26 for more history and context.
TODO:
- [x] Subtree `crc32c`
- [x] Make linters happy about crc32 subtree
- [x] Integrate `crc32c` library into build system
- [x] MSVC build system

This flag was used when building 32-bit Windows executables, which we no-longer
do, and is not accepted by the linker for any of the hosts we currently build
for. i.e:
```bash
checking whether the linker accepts -Wl,--large-address-aware... no
```
--large-address-aware
If given, the appropriate bit in the "Characteristics" field of the COFF
header is set to indicate that this executable supports virtual addresses
greater than 2 gigabytes. This should be used in conjunction with the /3GB
or /USERVA=value megabytes switch in the "[operating systems]" section of
the BOOT .INI. Otherwise, this bit has no effect. [This option is specific
to PE targeted ports of the linker]
You can check that the appropriate bit in the COFF header of our current
Windows binaries is still be set using dumpbin. i.e:
```powershell
dumpbin /headers .\bitcoind.exe
FILE HEADER VALUES
<snip>
26 characteristics
Executable
Line numbers stripped
Application can handle large (>2GB) addresses
