Qt's configure grabs the path to xkb's data root during configure, but the
build changes in 5.8 apparently broke the handling for cross builds. As a
result, the string embedded in the binary depends on whether or not some files
are present in the builder's filesystem.
The "-xkb-config-root" configure setting is intended to allow manual overriding
but it is also broken. See: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-60005
This has since been fixed upstream, so just hard-code the path for now. We can
drop this patch when we bump to a fixed Qt.
Also, fix the "-qt-xkbcommon-x11" config param which was renamed. This does not
appear to affect build results, presumably because auto-detection is working,
but it does not hurt to be explicit.
6b5506a286 Fix Qt's rcc determinism for depends/gitian (Fuzzbawls)
Pull request description:
With the update to Qt 5.9 having been merged, Qt's `rcc` tool now embeds a file's last modified time in it's output. Since the build system generates temporary files for all locale translations (`*.qm` files) at build time, the resulting `qrc_bitcoin_locale.cpp` file was always being generated in a non-deterministic way.
This is a backport of https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-62511, which is included in Qt versions 5.11+, that allows for an environment variable (`QT_RCC_SOURCE_DATE_OVERRIDE`) to override the behavior described above. This environment variable is in turn set in the gitian descriptors, as that is where determinism is vital for release purposes.
Prior to this, the `qt_libbitcoinqt_a-qrc_bitcoin_locale.o` object file (included into `libbitcoinqt.a`) was returning a different `sha256sum` for each and every build, regardless of file contents change, thus breaking determinism in the resulting binaries.
This should fix#13731

Pull request description:
This adds support for riscv32 and riscv64 builds to the depends system.
The change consists of documentation and build system changes. The most significant change is an update of `config.sub` and `config.guess` inside zeromq patch, as the current version does not recognize the `riscv*` host tuples (there's no new version of ZeroMQ yet with newer ones).
Good thing: RISC-V 64-bit toolchain packages can be installed out of the box on Ubuntu 18.04+.
I would also like to add RISC-V 64-bit executables to gitian, but this will not be possible until #12511 .

The patch Bitcoin Core has been maintaining for mac_alias was pulled by the mac_alias maintainer in commit 4f31cb084c1c6a8626128b0b00842020b6db9037. Delete the patch and remove the patch from the depends system.
Note that this PR won't be complete until a new version of mac_alias containing the path has been released, and the depends system is updated to reflect the new version.
This is broken for a number of reasons, including:
- g++ understands "-static-libstdc++ -lstdc++" to mean "link against whatever
libstdc++ exists, probably shared", which in itself is buggy.
- another stdlib (libc++ for example) may be in use
ld64 is threaded, and uses a worker for each CPU to parse input files. But
there's a bug in the parser causing dependencies to be calculated differently
based on which files have already been parsed.
As a result, builders with more CPUs are more likely to see non-determinism.
This looks to have been fixed in a newer version of ld64, so just disable
threading for now. There's no noticible slowdown.
This contains a few hacks very specific to Qt's buildsystem. These can be
reverted once we split the build between native and target builds.
Qt's build contains a circular dependency when not using a system zlib.
By far the easiest fix is to switch to a system zlib, rather than Qt's own.
However, that confuses Qt's cross build which assumes that when using a system
zlib, it should also find a system (native) zlib for native tools. The build
breaks if that zlib is not present.
To solve this:
1. Always use a system zlib rather than the one provided by qt
2. Set force_bootstrap, which instructs the build tools to be built as though
we're cross-compiling (build != target)
3. For build tools, use qt's internal zlib so that a native zlib is not
required.
Step 3 means that if any zlib headers are found by the native build, it will
confuse Qt's internal zlib build. So we also need to make sure that the target
headers/libs aren't found. To do so, specify that our
cflags/cxxflags/cppflags/ldflags only apply for non-host builds.
qt5.7 changed the location of some of its symbols, creating a circular
dependency in Qt5Core. Rather than trying to fix that up, build our own zlib
rather than having it built for us.
Their buildsystem insists on using the installed ltranslate, but gets confused
about how to find it. Since we manually control the build order, just drop the
dependency.
Add a patch that seems to be necessary for compatibilty of libevent
2.0.22 with recent mingw-w64 gcc versions (at least GCC 5.3.1 from Ubuntu
16.04).
Without this patch the Content-Length in the HTTP header ends up as
`Content-Length: zu`, causing communication between the RPC
client and server to break down. See discussion in #8653.

Thanks to @sstone for the suggestion.
- 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.
