Pull request description:

  Prerequisite for external signer support in #16546. Big picture overview in [this gist](https://gist.github.com/Sjors/29d06728c685e6182828c1ce9b74483d).

  This adds a new dependency [boost process](https://github.com/boostorg/process/tree/boost-1.64.0). This is part of Boost since 1.64 which is part of `depends`. Because the minimum Boost version is 1.47, this functionality is skipped for older versions of Boost.

  Use `./configure --with-boost-process` to opt in, which checks for the presence of Boost::Process.

  We add `UniValue runCommandParseJSON(const std::string& strCommand)` to `system.{h,cpp}` which calls an arbitrary command and processes the JSON returned by it. This is currently only called by the test suite.

  ~For testing purposes this adds a new regtest-only RPC method `runcommand`, as well as `test/mocks/command.py` used by functional tests.~ (this is no longer the case)

  TODO:
  - [ ] review boost process in #15440

    re-ACK 31cf68a3ad, only rebased (verified with `git range-diff`) and removed an unintentional tab character since the [previous](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/15382#pullrequestreview-458371035) review.
  meshcollider:
    Very light utACK 31cf68a3ad, although I am not very confident with build stuff.
  promag:
    Code review ACK 31cf68a3ad, don't mind the nit.
  ryanofsky:
    Code review ACK 31cf68a3ad. I left some comments below that could be ignored or followed up later. The current change is clean and comprehensive.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
