Pull request description:
Document differences in `bitcoind` and `bitcoin-qt` locale handling.
Since this seems to be the root cause to the locale dependency issues we've seen over the years I thought it was worth documenting :)
Note that 1.) `QLocale` (used by Qt), 2.) C locale (used by locale-sensitive C standard library functions/POSIX functions and some parts of the C++ standard library such as `std::to_string`) and 3.) C++ locale (used by the C++ input/output library) are three separate things. This comment is about the perhaps surprising interference with the C locale (2) that takes place as part of the Qt initialization.

54b5eb2b14 tests: Add std::locale::global to list of locale dependent functions in lint-locale-dependence.sh (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
Add `std::locale::global` to list of locale dependent functions in `lint-locale-dependence.sh`.
We currently flag `setlocale(...)` as locale dependent, but prior to this commit we didn't flag
`std::locale::global(...)` as such.
In addition to setting the global C++ locale `std::locale::global(...)` also does the equivalent of `std::setlocale(LC_ALL, ...);`.
Thus the functionality of `std::locale::global(...)` is a superset of `setlocale(...)` :)

Pull request description:
This PR improves `contrib/devtools/copyright_header.py` script and adds copyright headers to the files in `src` and `test` directories with two exceptions:
- [`src/reverse_iterator.h`](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/reverse_iterator.h) (added to exceptions)
- [`src/test/fuzz/FuzzedDataProvider.h`](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/test/fuzz/FuzzedDataProvider.h) (added to exceptions)
On master 5622d8f315:
```
$ ./contrib/devtools/copyright_header.py report . | grep zero
25 with zero copyrights
```
With this PR:
```
$ ./contrib/devtools/copyright_header.py report . | grep zero
2 with zero copyrights

~I am uncertain about our copyright policy with `build_msvc` and `contrib` directories content, so they are out of scope of this PR.~

This commit removes the `boost/algorithm/string/case_conv.hpp` dependency from the project. It replaces the `boost::to_lower` and `boost::to_upper` functions with custom functions that are locale independent and ASCII deterministic.
