We currently do this sporadically. Not only amongst packages, but across
OS's, i.e sometimes it's done for BSDs/Android, and sometimes not.
Configure with `--with-pic` globally instead. I think this generally
makes more sense, and should not have any downsides.

Compiling C++ code with `-D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600` causes problems on
OpenBSD. If that define is set, the C++ standard header detection
routine in BDB's configure script fails. This results in
`HAVE_CXX_STDHEADERS` not being defined, which then it turn leads to
the inclusion of `<iostream.h>` (rather than `<iostream>`), which
doesn't exist.
According to a mailing list post discussing a similar problem [1],
"OpenBSD provides the POSIX APIs by default", so we don't need this
define anyway and can remove it. This fixes the BDB build problem as
described in issue #28963.
Tested on OpenBSD 7.4 with clang 13.0.0.

Compiling bdb with clang-16 on aarch64 (hardware) currently fails:
```bash
make -C depends/ bdb CC=clang CXX=clang++
...
checking for mutexes... UNIX/fcntl
configure: WARNING: NO SHARED LATCH IMPLEMENTATION FOUND FOR THIS PLATFORM.
configure: error: Unable to find a mutex implementation
```
Looking at config.log we've got:
```bash

Clang-16 changed `-Wimplicit-function-declaration` and `-Wimplicit-int`
warnings into errors, see:

This is causing build failures in some build environments, like NixOS.
I don't think we are going to patch bdb at this point, and this warning
has existed for as long as we've used bdb.
Fixes#25211.
Tested (in Docker) with:
```bash
docker run -it nixos/nix
nix-shell -p gitMinimal gcc12 libtool pkg-config curl gnumake patch autoconf automake
git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin
make -C bitcoin/depends bdb
```

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.
Starting with the Clang shipped with Xcode 12, Apple has enabled
-Werror=implicit-function-declaration by default. This causes bdbs mutex
detection to fail when building on macOS (not cross-compiling):
checking for mutexes... UNIX/fcntl
configure: WARNING: NO SHARED LATCH IMPLEMENTATION FOUND FOR THIS PLATFORM.
configure: error: Unable to find a mutex implementation
as previously emitted warnings are being turned into errors. i.e:
error: implicitly declaring library function 'exit' with type 'void (int) __attribute__((noreturn))' [-Werror,-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
Append -Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration to cflags so that
-Wimplicit-function-declaration returns to being a warning, and the
configure checks will succeed.
Fixes#19411.
Some dependency sources were downloaded via http, even though https (SSL/TLS) options are available.
Even if we potentially check the integrity of the downloaded files via hash comparison, we should make
use of this additional security layer.

miniupnp was switched to official project mirror with SSL support
- create a script to handle split debug. This will also eventually need to check
targets, and use dsymutil for osx.
- update config.guess/config.sub for bdb for aarch64.
- temporarily disable symbol checks for arm/aarch64
- quit renaming to linux32/linux64 and use the host directly
This also adds a hack to work around an Ubuntu bug in the gcc-multilib package:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-defaults-armhf-cross/+bug/1347820
The problem is that gcc-multilib conflicts with the aarch toolchain.
gcc-multilib installs a symlink that points
/usr/include/asm -> /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/asm.
Without this link, gcc -m32 can't find asm/errno.h (and others), since
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu isn't in its default include path. But
/usr/include/i386-linux-gnu is (though it doesn't exist on disk).
So work around the problem by linking
/usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/asm -> /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/asm.
The symlink fix is actually quite reasonable, but echoing the password into
sudo is nasty, and should probably be addressed in gitian itself. It makes more
sense to enable passwordless sudo for the build user by default.
Newer mingw supports the features necessary to enable this api, whereas older
versions didn't. However once enabled (automatically by configure), it triggers
an unrelated build bug.
Since it was not enabled previously anyway, and we don't depend on the
functionality, just disable it across the board.
