The thread does not only load blocks, it loads the mempool and,
in a future commit, will start the indexes as well.
Also, renamed the 'ThreadImport' function to 'ImportBlocks'
And the 'm_load_block' class member to 'm_thread_load'.

da347de530 doc: update broken links (pablomartin4btc)
Pull request description:
References to `utilstrencodings` and `lint-locale-dependence.sh` where incorrect, updating them accordingly.
Also, adding another reference to util function [`LocaleIndependentAtoi`](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/util/strencodings.h#L108-L118), which is related with the updated section of the guide:
```
// LocaleIndependentAtoi is provided for backwards compatibility reasons.
//
// New code should use ToIntegral or the ParseInt* functions
// which provide parse error feedback.
//
// The goal of LocaleIndependentAtoi is to replicate the defined behaviour of
// std::atoi as it behaves under the "C" locale, and remove some undefined
// behavior. If the parsed value is bigger than the integer type's maximum
// value, or smaller than the integer type's minimum value, std::atoi has
// undefined behavior, while this function returns the maximum or minimum
// values, respectively.

75347236f2 docs: document c-style cast prohibition (Pasta)
Pull request description:
In the words of practicalswift:
```
A C-style cast is equivalent to try casting in the following order:
const_cast(...)
static_cast(...)
const_cast(static_cast(...))
reinterpret_cast(...)
const_cast(reinterpret_cast(...))
By using static_cast<T>(...) explicitly we avoid the possibility of an unintentional and
dangerous reinterpret_cast. Furthermore static_cast<T>(...) allows for easier grepping of casts.
For a more thorough discussion, see "ES.49: If you must use a cast, use a named cast"
in the C++ Core Guidelines (Stroustrup & Sutter).
```
Modern tooling, specifically `-Wold-style-cast` can enable us to enforce never using C-style casts. I believe this is especially important due to the number of C-style casts the codebase is currently being used as a reinterpret_cast. reinterpret_casts are especially dangerous, and should never be done via C-style casts.
Update the docs to suggest the use of named cast or functional casts.

Mostly changes to remove src/univalue exceptions from the various linters,
and the required code changes to make them happy. As well as minor doc
changes.

Pull request description:
This changes `LOCK(mutex)` for non-global, non-recursive mutexes to be annotated with the negative capability for the mutex it refers to, to prevent . clang applies negative capabilities recursively, so this helps avoid forgetting to annotate functions.
This can't reasonably be used for globals, because clang would require every function to be annotated with `EXCLUSIVE_LOCKS_REQUIRED(!g_mutex)` for each global mutex; so this introduces a trivial `GlobalMutex` subclass of `Mutex`, and reduces the annotations for both `GlobalMutex` to `LOCKS_EXCLUDED` which only catches trivial errors (eg (`LOCK(x); LOCK(x);`).

05f9770c1f doc: Clarify developer notes about constant naming (Russell Yanofsky)
Pull request description:
I'm pretty sure developer notes were intended to say constants should be upper case and variables should be lower case, but right now they are ambiguous about whether to write:
```c++
extern const int SYMBOL;
```
or:
```c++
extern const int g_symbol;
```
First convention above is better than the second convention because it tells you without having to look anything up that the value of `SYMBOL` won't change at runtime. Also I haven't seen other c++ projects using the second convention.
