bd3f5a90ec build: remove mingw linker workaround from win gitian descriptor (fanquake)
Pull request description:
This workaround was added as part of the switch to gitian building using Ubuntu 14.04 (#6900).
However, it should no longer be required, as we have switched to Bionic (#13171) and that
has a far newer version of binutils.

Pull request description:
It would seem that our `gitian-win.yml` has not been keeping up with `gitian-linux.yml`, this PR:
1. Minimizes the diff size between `gitian-{win,linux}.yml`
2. Eliminates the `rename` dependency

Linux:
The README was originally added in 8550f1fb2, but included the README
under the docs directory, which has a bunch of internal links that won't
make sense in a release tarball. In this patch, we include the root
level README instead, which makes more sense.
Windows:
.md files are inconvenient to open on windows and the line endings
differ, so we use README_windows.txt instead.
7fb7acfc20 Set init stop timeout to 10 min (setpill)
Pull request description:
`bitcoind` can take a long time to flush its db cache to disk upon
shutdown. Systemd sends a `SIGKILL` after a timeout, causing unclean
shutdowns and triggering a long "Rolling forward" at the next startup.
Disabling the timeout should prevent this from happening, and does not
break systemd's `restart` logic.
Addresses #13736.

3284e6c09a scripts: search for next position of magic bytes rather than fail (Tim Akinbo)
Pull request description:
When using the `linearize-data.py` contrib script to export block data, there are edge cases where the script fails with an `Invalid magic: 00000000` error. This error occurs due to the presence of padding bytes that occasionally appears between consecutive blocks in the block data file.
There's an ongoing conversation about this in #14986. sipa also admitted that it is a bug in #5028. Fortunately, this is not an issue in bitcoin core as it handles this type of situation gracefully and so no fix in bitcoin core is required.
This PR is an improvement on how the script handles these "invalid magic bytes". Rather than failing, this patch allows the script to search for the next occurrence of the magic bytes and then starts reading the block from there.

Debug splitting was first introduced in 7e7eb2724, then gitian-linux.yml
changed to using split-debug.sh in 9d2536208. Here we change
gitian-win.yml to use split-debug.sh as well.
- Change regular expression to cover recent versions, as well as
subversions with custom uacomment, and improve readability.
- Vary uptime requirements per network (onions are allowed to have less
uptime, to make sure we get enough of them)
- Add deduplication step (to allow simple concatentation of multiple seeds files).
- Log of number of nodes (per network) after every step.
This workaround was added as part of the switch to gitian building using Ubuntu 14.04 (#6900).
However, it should no longer be required, as we have switched to Bionic (#13171), and that
has a far newer version of binutils.

bc6d8a3662 gui: Refactor OpenWalletActivity (João Barbosa)
Pull request description:
This PR adds a menu option to create a new wallet. When clicked, a `CreateWalletDialog` will be created and prompt the user to name the wallet and choose whether to disable private keys, make a blank wallet, and encrypt the wallet. If the wallet is encrypted, the wallet will be born encrypted with the wallet first created blank, then encrypted, and then a new HD seed generated and set.
To allow the newly created wallets to be encrypted, some changes to how encrypting a wallet works. Instead of encrypting and locking the wallet, the wallet will be encrypted and then unlocked. This is also an extra belt-and-suspenders check to make sure that encryption worked.

ACK 613de61a04 - re-reviewed on macOS. I'm going to merge this now. It's had a stack of review, and as mentioned multiple times above, lets get this into `master` so it can get more testing pre `v0.19.0`.

`bitcoind` can take a long time to flush its db cache to disk upon
shutdown. Most init files send a `SIGKILL` after a timeout of 1 minute,
causing unclean shutdowns and triggering a long "Rolling forward" at the
next startup. Increasing this timeout to 10 minutes should reduce how
often this occurs, especially during IBD.
fixup! Set ProtectHome in systemd service file
- store_path() previously only worked for cross compilation packages, we
remove this assumption here
- Add CROSS_GCC_LIB variable which points to where gcc libs/headers are
located
- Add gcc libs/headers to our CROSS_*_PATH environment variables
- Check that all directories in CROSS_*_PATH are sane

Rather than making the config dir world-readable, which potentially
leaks RPC credentials, the group of the directory is changed to the one
the service is executed as.
The phrasing seemed to indicate that the options specified in
ExecStart= could not be specified in the config file, necessitating
their inclusion in the service file. However, the options in the
config file simply get overridden by any specified in ExecStart=.
- Clearer and more accurate prose
- Pin `guix pull' to commit rather than branch
- Just use `use-module' instead of `define-module'
- Use `bash-minimal' instead of `bash'
- Remove unneeded `tcsh' from manifest
- Explicitly use `python-3.7'
- Add comments about how {native,cross}-toolchains are produced and
why
