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.

ACK 33796a964a - While this sort of string matching is fragile, I think the risk of this causing any actual issues is low.

66a20a54a2 build, qt: Drop support for `i686-linux-android` host (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
There are no reasons to keep support for `i686-linux-android` host, which is actually broken in master (50c502f54a), and this fact has been unnoticed for months :)

the Qt build system internally.

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.

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.
