9952242c03 build: improve builtin_clz* detection (fanquake)
Pull request description:
Fixes#19402.
The way we currently test for `__builtin_clz*` support with `AC_CHECK_DECLS` does not work with Clang:
```bash
configure:21492: clang++-10 -std=c++11 -c -g -O2 -DHAVE_BUILD_INFO -D__STDC_FORMAT_MACROS conftest.cpp >&5
conftest.cpp💯10: error: builtin functions must be directly called
(void) __builtin_clz;
^
1 error generated.
```
This also removes the `__builtin_clz()` check, as we don't actually use it anywhere, and it's trvial to re-add detection if we do start using it at some point. If this is controversial then I'll add a test for it as well.

Pull request description:
Tx-inv messages are ignored during IBD, so it would be nice if we told peers to not send them in the first place. Do that by sending two `feefilter` messages: One when the connection is made (and the node is in IBD), and another one when the node leaves IBD.

8578c6fccd build: Fix search for brew-installed BDB 4 on OS X (Glenn Willen)
Pull request description:
~~NOTE: This PR contains one important fix that I need (to make Bitcoin Core build cleanly on my system without shenanigans), plus some related general cleanup that is not really necessary, and could be annoying. (I am prepared to defend my argument that BDB_CFLAGS is wrong here, and BDB_CPPFLAGS is right, but this could bite anybody who has gotten in the habit of -- or scripted -- setting the former.)~~
Ok, I have been convinced that I was too clever with the refactor and I have removed it. Now it's just the tiny change to fix the build on my local machine.
---
On OS X, when searching Homebrew keg-only packages for BDB 4.8, if we find it,
use BDB_CPPFLAGS and BDB_LIBS instead of CFLAGS and LIBS for the result. This
is (1) more correct, and (2) necessary in order to give this location
priority over other directories in the include search path, which may include
system include directories with other versions of BDB.

0ac09c9793 qt: Do not truncate node flag strings in debugwindow.ui peers details tab. (saibato)
Pull request description:
Fix: When fiddling around with new node flags other than the usual.
I saw that not all possible node flag strings i.e. the UNKNOWN[..] where
visible in peers details tab.
Since v18.2 fixed size was set to 300 and sliding is thereby limited.
A fix on my old linux cruft and small screen was to set minimumSize width to -1 or 0.
Qt will then autosize the slider to the max string length.
Thereby i had full display of all flags inclusive sliding without to fullscreen the window.
Not sure if this is even an issue for those who can afford big screens or high res macs?
Feedback welcome.
BTW: nice side effect now again easy to scroll trough long version names of the node.
can't wait to see strings like /Satoshi:0.23.99/NOX2NOX4NOX32 or what ever fits in the version string.

1087807b2b tests: Provide main(...) function in fuzzer (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
Provide `main(...)` function in fuzzer. Allow building uninstrumented harnesses with only `--enable-fuzz`.
This PR restores the behaviour to how things worked prior to #18008. #18008 worked around an macOS specific issue but did it in a way which unnecessarily affected platforms not in need of the workaround :)
Before this patch:
```
# Build uninstrumented fuzzing harness (no libFuzzer/AFL/other-fuzzer-instrumentation)
$ ./configure --enable-fuzz
$ make
CXXLD test/fuzz/span
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/7/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/Scrt1.o: In function `_start':
(.text+0x20): undefined reference to `main'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:7244: recipe for target 'test/fuzz/span' failed
make[2]: *** [test/fuzz/span] Error 1
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
$
```
After this patch:
```
# Build uninstrumented fuzzing harness (no libFuzzer/AFL/other-fuzzer-instrumentation)
$ ./configure --enable-fuzz
$ make
$ echo foo | src/test/fuzz/span
$
```
The examples above show the change in non-macOS functionality. macOS functionality is unaffected by this patch.

37ae687f95 Add tests for CPubKey serialization/unserialization (Elichai Turkel)
9b8907fade Check size after Unserializing CPubKey (Elichai Turkel)
Pull request description:
Found by practicalswift, closes#19235
Currently all the public API(except the pointer-like API) in CPubKey that sets/constructs a pubkey goes through `CPubKey::Set` which checks if that the length and size match and if not invalidates the key.
This adds the same check to `CPubKey::Unserialize`, sadly I don't see an easy way to just push this to the existing checks in `CPubKey::Set` but it's only a simple condition.
The problem with not invalidating is that if you write a pubkey like: `{0x02,0x00}` it will think the actual length is 33(because of `size()`) and will access uninitialized memory if you call any of the functions on CPubKey.

Pull request description:
This PR achieves 3 main things:
1. It simplifies the macOS SDK generation by putting the logic inside a (semi-)portable python3 script `gen-sdk`
2. It transitions us to using `libc++` headers extracted from the `Xcode.app`, which is more correct as those headers better match the `.tbd` library stubs we use from the `MacOSX.sdk` (located under the same `Xcode.app`). Previously, we used `libc++` headers copied from our downloaded, pinned clang (see `native_cctools.mk`).
3. It bumps the macOS toolchain in a way that fulfills all of the following constraints:
1. The new SDK should support compiling with C++17 (our current one doesn't)
2. The new toolchain should not change our minimum supported macOS version (`-mmacosx-version-min`)
3. The new toolchain should expect to use a version of `cctools` that is supported by https://github.com/tpoechtrager/cctools-port
For the constraints in (3), you can reference [this chart](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode#Xcode_7.0_-_11.x_(since_Free_On-Device_Development)) to see that the newest toolchain we can use with our `cctools-port` is `11.3.1`, and the rest of the constraints were tested with local builds.
#### But [the other Wikipedia chart](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode#Xcode_11.x_(since_SwiftUI_framework)) says that the "min macOS to run" for Xcode 11.3.1 is 10.14.4, doesn't that violate constraint (ii)?
This confused me at first too, but the "min macOS to run" is for the Xcode.app App itself. The SDK still supports 10.12, as evident in a few plist files and as proven through local builds.
#### Why bundle all of this together in a single PR?
We need (1) and (2) together, because if we don't, manually adding the `libc++` headers and writing that out in a `README.md` is going to result in a lot of user error, so it's great to have these together to be more correct and also make it easier on the user at the same time.
We need (3) together with everything else because bumping (or in the case of (1), renaming) the SDK requires some human coordination and may break some builds. And since it's not that complicated a change, it makes sense to do it together with the rest.

f1d21ef1c3 doc: add C++17 release note for 0.21.0 (fanquake)
Pull request description:
TLDR: Mention that the codebase is now compatible with C++17, and that the
intention is to require C++17 starting with 0.22.0.
Following some discussion with Cory/Carl, and in #16684, I think this is the next step in the C++17 migration.
While #16684 mentions a gitian/Guix release with C++17, it's not yet clear how that would be done. Are we just going to pass `--enable-c++17` in gitian/Guix?. Are we changing our default in configure.ac?
According to the [last comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16684#issuecomment-643778757) in #16684, we wouldn't be changing anything in depends:
> No, everything (including depends) will stay at C++11.
However I don't think we want to be mixing C++11 built dependencies, with a C++17 built bitcoind, if there is any potential for compatibility issues.
Instead, I'd suggest we build the 0.21.0 release as C++11, and do a complete switch to C++17 for 0.22.0. Also, if we actually wanted to use C++17 in depends for 0.21.0, we couldn't without breaking C++11 compat (Qt). See below.
Here is a potential timeline/TODOs for the migration:
Potential Timeline
* 17 / 6 / 2020 - Today
* Some time prior to split-off:
* Confirm that compiling with C++17 works.
* Confirm that C++11 compatibility has not been broken.
* 1 / 11 / 2020
* [0.21.0 split off happens](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/18947).
* 2 / 11 / 2020
* Merge an "incompatible with C++11" change into master.
* Switch configure to use C++17 mode by default.
* Update minimum compiler requirements. At least:
* Clang 5: https://clang.llvm.org/cxx_status.html#cxx17
* GCC 7: https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx-status.html#cxx17
* While GCC has some support from 5, it seems a more complete support landed in GCC 7.
* https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-7/changes.html#cxx
* Switch depends packages to use C++17 where applicable.
* Bump Qt from 5.9.x (no c++17 mode) to, likely, 5.15.x (LTS).
* Drop support for macOS < 10.14.x
* The c++ dylib shipped with macOS [doesn't support c++17, prior to macOS 10.14](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16684#issuecomment-643722538).
* Building Qt 5.12 or 5.15 in C++17 mode will also require a minimum macOS deployment target of 10.14. https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/283832.
* Begin merging PRs like #19183 and #19245.
* I've left some comments in #19183 if the macOS runtime issue interests anyone.
* 3 / 12 / 2020
* 0.21.0 released.
* Built as C++11.
* Contains warning in release notes that compiling 0.22.0 will require C++17.
* 3 / 6 / 2021
* 0.22.0 released.
* Full of C++17 code.
One thing worth noting, is that we cannot bump our Qt to a newer LTS for 0.21.0, without breaking C++11 compatibility. Qt 5.12 is not compilable in C++11 mode, as the project has started using C++14 features throughout at least the macOS portions of it's codebase, and seemingly "forgotten" that the release is meant to be C++11 compatible.
Upstream bug here: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-77310.
> Building Qt requires C+11, at a minimum, but in practice we use later features, usually under a feature define, or with a fallback of some kind. On platforms that support > C11, we've (apparently) not considered the fallback necessary, under the assumption C+14 is always available.

20b6e95944 test: refactor functional tests to use restart_node (Christopher Coverdale)
Pull request description:
fixes#19345
This PR replaces consecutive calls to `stop_node()` and `start_node()` with `restart_node()` where appropriate in the functional tests.
The commit messages are repetitive but focused on each file changed with the intention of squashing if applicable.
