47776a958b Add linter: Make sure all shell scripts opt out of locale dependence using "export LC_ALL=C" (practicalswift)
3352da8da1 Add "export LC_ALL=C" to all shell scripts (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
~~Make sure `LC_ALL=C` is set when using `grep` range expressions.~~
Make sure `LC_ALL=C` is set in all shell scripts.
From the `grep(1)` documentation:
> Within a bracket expression, a range expression consists of two characters separated by a hyphen. It matches any single character that sorts between the two characters, inclusive, using the locale's collating sequence and character set. For example, in the default C locale, `[a-d]` is equivalent to `[abcd]`. Many locales sort characters in dictionary order, and in these locales `[a-d]` is typically not equivalent to `[abcd]`; it might be equivalent to `[aBbCcDd]`, for example. To obtain the traditional interpretation of bracket expressions, you can use the C locale by setting the `LC_ALL` environment variable to the value C.

fa7a6cf1b3 policy: Treat segwit as always active (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Now that segwit is active for a long time, there is no need to reject transactions with the reason that segwit hasn't activated.
Strictly speaking, this is a bug fix, because with the release of 0.16, we create segwit transactions in our wallet by default without checking if they are allowed by local policy.
More broadly, this simplifies the code as if "premature witness" was always set to true with the corresponding command line args.

906bee8e5f Use bracket syntax includes ("#include <foo.h>") (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
When analysing includes in the project it is often assumed that the preferred bracket include syntax (`#include <foo.h>`) mentioned in `developer-docs.md` is used consistently. @sipa:s excellent circular dependencies script [`circular-dependencies.py`](50c69b7801/contrib/devtools/circular-dependencies.py) (#13228) is an example of a script making this reasonable assumption.
This PR enables automatic Travis checking of the include syntax making sure that the bracket syntax includes (`#include <foo.h>`) is used consistently.

0a4ea2f458 build: Add linter for checking accidental locale dependence (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
This linter will check for code accidentally introducing locale dependencies.
Unnecessary locale dependence can cause bugs that are very tricky to isolate and fix. We should avoid using locale dependent functions if possible.
Context: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/12881#issuecomment-378564722
Example output:
```
$ contrib/devtools/lint-locale-dependence.sh
The locale dependent function tolower(...) appears to be used:
src/init.cpp: if (s[0] == '0' && std::tolower(s[1]) == 'x') {
Unnecessary locale dependence can cause bugs that are very
tricky to isolate and fix. Please avoid using locale dependent
functions if possible.
Advice not applicable in this specific case? Add an exception
by updating the ignore list in contrib/devtools/lint-locale-dependence.sh
```
**Note to reviewers:** What is the most appropriate `LOCALE_DEPENDENT_FUNCTIONS` function list? What should be added or removed?
