libXext was only needed (as a library) by QT when it was using
XLib/libX11 (as a library), now that we're building QT without
XLib/libX11, we can safely remove libXext.
We're no longer building QT with libX11/XLib, however, libX11/XLib
headers are still required for parts of QT. In this commit we add a
minimal configure.ac for libX11/XLib that is headers-only.
This change allows us to remove all of libX11/XLib's dependencies.
Previously, in 683b7d7a3f and
0e752637a2, we accidentally broke QT's
ability to pick up Xlib thru the config.gui.tests.xlib configuration
test, which also means that config.gui.libraries.xcb_xlib wasn't run.
This resulted in a QT build that was implicitly -no-xcb-lib and
-no-feature-xlib.
This is actually a desired behaviour, as it means less required shared
objects for our final bitcoin-qt binary. Specifically, it eliminated the
libX11-xcb.so.1 and libX11.so.6 requirements.
In this commit, we explicitly build without Xlib. We should continue to
track upstream ticket https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-61452 which
talks about adding a -no-xlib (non-hidden) flag instead of the
-no-feature-xlib (hidden) flag.
e10e1e8db0 Restrict lifetime of ReserveDestination to CWallet::CreateTransaction (Gregory Sanders)
d9ff862f2d CreateTransaction calls KeepDestination on ReserveDestination before success (Gregory Sanders)
Pull request description:
The typical usage pattern of `ReserveDestination` is to explicitly `KeepDestination`, or `ReturnDestination` when it's detected it will not be used.
Implementers such as myself may fail to complete this pattern, and could result in key re-use: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/15557#discussion_r271956393
Since ReserveDestination is currently only used directly in the `CreateTransaction`/`CommitTransaction` flow(or fee bumping where it's just used in `CreateTransaction`), I instead make the assumption that if a transaction is returned by `CreateTransaction` it's highly likely that it will be accepted by the caller, and the `ReserveDestination` kept. This simplifies the API as well. There are very few cases where this would not be the case which may result in keys being burned.
Those failure cases appear to be:
`CommitTransaction` failing to get the transaction into the mempool
Belt and suspenders check in `WalletModel::prepareTransaction`

Pull request description:
This is part of the [assumeutxo project](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/projects/11):
Parent PR: #15606
Issue: #15605
Specification: https://github.com/jamesob/assumeutxo-docs/tree/2019-04-proposal/proposal
---
Under an assumeutxo model, we have multiple CChainState instances in use at once in order to support background validation. Currently, each CChainState instance has its own mapBlockIndex, a collection of linked block headers, in addition to a few other data structures that are related to maintenance of the block tree but not necessarily to any given chainstate.
In order to avoid duplicating this data across chainstates, this change moves chainstate-agnostic block metadata (and related behavior) into a class, `BlockManager`. Chainstates are parameterized with a reference to a blockmanager instance and in practice they share the same instance.
Most of this change is conceptually move-only, though the diff is somewhat muddled. The first commit can be reviewed slightly more easily with `--color-moved=dimmed_zebra`. Admittedly, that commit is pretty unwieldy; I tried to split it up after the fact with `git add --patch`, but that was difficult because of git's inability to split hunks past a certain point. Some of the moves also ended up being obscured when done over separate commits.

### Guix Introduction
This PR enables building bitcoin in Guix containers. [Guix](https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Features.html) is a transactional package manager much like Nix, but unlike Nix, it has more of a focus on [bootstrappability](https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Bootstrapping.html) and [reproducibility](https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/blog/tags/reproducible-builds/) which are attractive for security-sensitive projects like bitcoin.
### Guix Build Walkthrough
Please read the `README.md`.

[Old instructions no. 2](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/15277#issuecomment-471658439)
<details>
<summary>Old instructions no. 1</summary>
In this PR, we define a Guix [manifest](https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Invoking-guix-package.html#profile_002dmanifest) in `contrib/guix/manifest.scm`, which declares what packages we want in our environment.
We can then invoke
```
guix environment --manifest=contrib/guix/manifest.scm --container --pure --no-grafts --no-substitutes
```
To have Guix:
1. Build an environment containing the packages we defined in our `contrib/guix/manifest.scm` manifest from the Guix bootstrap binaries (see [bootstrappability](https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Bootstrapping.html) for more details).
2. Start a container with that environment that has no network access, and no access to the host's filesystem except to the `pwd` that it was started in.
3. Drop you into a shell in that container.
> Note: if you don't want to wait hours for Guix to build the entire world from scratch, you can eliminate the `--no-substitutes` option to have Guix download from available binary sources. Note that this convenience doesn't necessarily compromise your security, as you can check that a package was built correctly after the fact using `guix build --check <packagename>`
Therefore, we can perform a build of bitcoin much like in Gitian by invoking the following:
```
make -C depends -j"$(nproc)" download && \
cat contrib/guix/build.sh | guix environment --manifest=contrib/guix/manifest.scm --container --pure --no-grafts --no-substitutes
```
We don't include `make -C depends -j"$(nproc)" download` inside `contrib/guix/build.sh` because `contrib/guix/build.sh` is run inside the container, which has no network access (which is a good thing).
</details>
### Rationale
I believe that this represents a substantial improvement for the "supply chain security" of bitcoin because:
1. We no longer have to rely on Ubuntu for our build environment for our releases ([oh the horror](72bd4ab867/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-linux.yml (L10))), because Guix builds everything about the container, we can perform this on almost any Linux distro/system.
2. It is now much easier to determine what trusted binaries are in our supply chain, and even make a nice visualization! (see [bootstrappability](https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Bootstrapping.html)).
3. There is active effort among Guix folks to minimize the number of trusted binaries even further. OriansJ's [stage0](https://github.com/oriansj/stage0), and janneke's [Mes](https://www.gnu.org/software/mes/) all aim to achieve [reduced binary boostrap](http://joyofsource.com/reduced-binary-seed-bootstrap.html) for Guix. In fact, I believe if OriansJ gets his way, we will end up some day with only a single trusted binary: hex0 (a ~500 byte self-hosting hex assembler).
### Steps to Completion
- [x] Successfully build bitcoin inside the Guix environment
- [x] Make `check-symbols` pass
- [x] Do the above but without nasty hacks
- [x] Solve some of the more innocuous hacks
- [ ] Make it cross-compile (HELP WANTED HERE)
- [x] Linux
- [x] x86_64-linux-gnu
- [x] i686-linux-gnu
- [x] aarch64-linux-gnu
- [x] arm-linux-gnueabihf
- [x] riscv64-linux-gnu
- [ ] OS X
- [ ] x86_64-apple-darwin14
- [ ] Windows
- [ ] x86_64-w64-mingw32
- [ ] Maybe make importer for depends syntax
- [ ] Document build process for future releases
- [ ] Extra: Pin the revision of Guix that we build with with Guix [inferiors](https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Inferiors.html)

As of now, the command described above to perform a build of bitcoin a lot like Gitian works, but fails at the `check-symbols` stage. This is because a few dynamic libraries are linked in that shouldn't be.
Here's what `ldd src/bitcoind` looks like when built in a Guix container:
```
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffcc2d90000)
libdl.so.2 => /gnu/store/h90vnqw0nwd0hhm1l5dgxsdrigddfmq4-glibc-2.28/lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00007fb7eda09000)
librt.so.1 => /gnu/store/h90vnqw0nwd0hhm1l5dgxsdrigddfmq4-glibc-2.28/lib/librt.so.1 (0x00007fb7ed9ff000)

libpthread.so.0 => /gnu/store/h90vnqw0nwd0hhm1l5dgxsdrigddfmq4-glibc-2.28/lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007fb7ed85b000)
libm.so.6 => /gnu/store/h90vnqw0nwd0hhm1l5dgxsdrigddfmq4-glibc-2.28/lib/libm.so.6 (0x00007fb7ed6da000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /gnu/store/4sqps8dczv3g7rwbdibfz6rf5jlk7w90-gcc-5.5.0-lib/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007fb7ed6bf000)
libc.so.6 => /gnu/store/h90vnqw0nwd0hhm1l5dgxsdrigddfmq4-glibc-2.28/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007fb7ed506000)
/gnu/store/h90vnqw0nwd0hhm1l5dgxsdrigddfmq4-glibc-2.28/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 => /usr/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fb7ee3a0000)
```
And here's what it looks in one of our releases:
```
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffff52cd000)
libpthread.so.0 => /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f87726b4000)
librt.so.1 => /usr/lib/librt.so.1 (0x00007f87726aa000)
libm.so.6 => /usr/lib/libm.so.6 (0x00007f8772525000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f877250b000)
libc.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f8772347000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 => /usr/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f8773392000)
```
~~I suspect it is because my script does not apply the gitian-input patches [described in the release process](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/release-process.md#fetch-and-create-inputs-first-time-or-when-dependency-versions-change) but there is no description as to how these patches are applied.~~ It might also be something else entirely.
Edit: It is something else. It appears that the gitian inputs are only used by [`gitian-win-signer.yml`](d6e700e40f/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-win-signer.yml (L14))
</details>
### How to Help
1. Install Guix on your distro either [from source](https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Requirements.html) or perform a [binary installation](https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Binary-Installation.html#Binary-Installation)

Pull request description:
This PR compresses the `CWallet` chain of inheritance from 5 classes to 3 classes. `CBasicKeyStore` is renamed to `FillableSigningProvider` and some parts of it (the watchonly parts) are moved into `CWallet`. `CKeyStore` and `CCrypoKeyStore` are completely removed. `CKeyStore`'s `Have*` functions are moved into `SigningProvider` and the `Add*` moved into `FillableSigningProvider`, thus allowing it to go away entirely. `CCryptoKeyStore`'s functionality is moved into `CWallet`. The new inheritance chain is:
```
SigningProvider -> FillableSigningProvider -> CWallet
```
`SigningProvider` now is the class the provides keys and scripts and indicates whether keys and scripts are present. `FillableSigningProvider` allows keys and scripts to be added to the signing provider via `Add*` functions. `CWallet` handles all of the watchonly stuff (`AddWatchOnly`, `HaveWatchOnly`, `RemoveWatchOnly` which were previously in `CKeyStore`) and key encryption (previously in `CCryptoKeyStore`).

8e7f930828 Add GetNewChangeDestination for getting new change Destinations (Andrew Chow)
33d13edd2b Replace CReserveKey with ReserveDestinatoin (Andrew Chow)
172213be5b Add GetNewDestination to CWallet to fetch new destinations (Andrew Chow)
Pull request description:
The wallet should give out destinations instead of keys. It should be the one that handles the conversion from key to destination and the setting of the label, not the caller. In order to do this, two new member functions are introduced `GetNewDestination()` and `GetNewChangeDestination()`. Additionally, `CReserveKey` is changed to be `ReserveDestination` and represents destinations whose keys can be returned to the keypool.

5c5e32bbe3 rpc: migrate JSONRPCRequest functionality into request.cpp (Karl-Johan Alm)
0ab8ba1ac6 rpc: fix RPC help requirements for getblocktemplate (Karl-Johan Alm)
Pull request description:
Every single RPC call has a helper-section at the start, which throws a help string if the user asks for help or if the user provided too few/many arguments.
```C++
const RPCHelpMan help{...};
if (request.fHelp || !help.IsValidNumArgs(request.params.size())) {
throw std::runtime_error(help.ToString());
}
```
or (older version)
```C++
if (request.fHelp || request.params.size() < min || request.params.size() > max)
throw std::runtime_error(
RPCHelpMan{...}.ToString()
);
```
It seems like an obvious improvement, and less copy-pasting, to make `RPCHelpMan` aware of `JSONRPCRequest`, and to let it handle the checks instead. Both of the above become
```C++
RPCHelpMan{...}.Check(request);
```
which means we save roughly 3 lines per RPC command, and the `RPCHelpMan` instance is never referenced afterwards, so the approach is a tiny fraction cleaner.
This is a complete update, sans a few special case locations that had special rules. 623 lines turn into 284 (which includes the addition to `RPCHelpMan`).

Instead of having the same multiple lines of code everywhere
that new destinations are fetched, introduce GetNewDestination as
a member function of CWallet which does the key fetching, label
setting, script generation, and destination generation.
Moves all of the various SigningProviders out of sign.{cpp,h} and
keystore.{cpp,h}. As such, keystore.{cpp,h} is also removed.
Includes and the Makefile are updated to reflect this. Includes were largely
changed using:
git grep -l "keystore.h" | xargs sed -i -e 's;keystore.h;script/signingprovider.h;g'
64fee48944 qt: Assert QMetaObject::invokeMethod result (João Barbosa)
f27bd96b5f gui: Fix missing qRegisterMetaType(WalletModel*) (João Barbosa)
Pull request description:
Invalid/wrong dynamic calls aren't verified by the compiler. This PR asserts those dynamic calls. Once we bump Qt to at least 5.10 these can be refactored to use the `invokeMethod` overload that allows connecting to lambdas or member pointers, which are compile checked.
For reference, one of the overloaded versions is https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmetaobject.html#invokeMethod-5.
