13782b8ba8 docs: add perf section to developer docs (James O'Beirne)
58180b5fd4 tests: add utility to easily profile node performance with perf (James O'Beirne)
Pull request description:
Adds a context manager to easily (and selectively) profile node performance during functional test execution using `perf`.
While writing some tests, I encountered some odd bitcoind slowness. I wrote up a utility (`TestNode.profile_with_perf`) that generates performance diagnostics for a node by running `perf` during the execution of a particular region of test code.
`perf` usage is detailed in the excellent (and sadly unmerged) https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/12649; all due props to @eklitzke.
### Example
```python
with node.profile_with_perf("large-msgs"):
for i in range(200):
node.p2p.send_message(some_large_msg)
node.p2p.sync_with_ping()
```
This generates a perf data file in the test node's datadir (`/tmp/testtxmpod0y/node0/node-0-TestName-large-msgs.perf.data`).
Running `perf report` generates nice output about where the node spent most of its time while running that part of the test:
```bash
$ perf report -i /tmp/testtxmpod0y/node0/node-0-TestName-large-msgs.perf.data --stdio \
| c++filt \
| less
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.

So that's what I'm doing.
I was regularly seeing crashes on startup before applying this patch and haven't seen a single crash on startup since applying it almost a month ago.

This commit adds a ProcessImportLegacy() function which
currently does nothing. It also unindents a block of
code for a future move-only change.
Reviewer hint: review with -w to ignore whitespace changes.
This commit is move-only and doesn't make any functional changes. It
simply moves code around within ProcessImport() in preparation for
refactors in the next commits.
77777c5624 log: Construct global logger on first use (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
The (de)initialization order is not well defined in C++, so generally it is not safe to use globals as the (de/con)structor of one global could use the (de/con)structor of another global before/after it has been (con/de)structed.
Specifically this fixes:
* `g_logger` might not be initialized on the first use, so do that. (Fixes#15111)
