2a87b1b07c Add systemd service for bitcoind
Adding systemd service for bitcoind, to provide for a simpler
out-of-the-box experience.

Configuration file is /etc/bitcoin/bitcoin.conf. This file is a
copy of the sample configuration file.

The service user 'bitcoin' is added during install. Its homedir
is in '/var/lib/bitcoin'.

bitcoind.service is disabled by default to allow the user to
configure it, before starting it the first time.

On package purge, the 'bitcoin' user as well as its homedir is
left intact, to not accidentally remove a wallet or something of
equal importance. Instead the user is presented with information
on how to perform the cleanup manually, after making sure all
important data has been backed up.

997021986e Update contrib/debian to latest Ubuntu PPA upload.
This:
 * Partially reverts 9f68ed6 (which fixed spelling in a changelog,
   though generally changelogs should be append-only).
 * Disables UPnP support (PPA has not had it for a while, and I
   still don't trust miniupnpc, plus it seems uneccessary - its
   been a while since we needed to care about Bitcoin-Qt home users
   getting their inbound ports auto-mapped).
 * Enables ZMQ.
 * Forces GUI to Qt4 to fix various issues people have been seeing
   on Ubuntu and elsewhere with Qt5.
 * Reverts 70899d70b (Bitcoin does not enable "instant payments",
   not is transaction management "carried out collectively by the
   network", for whatever "transaction management" means, finally
   Bitcoin Core is not the only way to use the Bitcoin currency,
   as seemingly implied in the description).

b0beae8b82 Drop "with minimal dependencies" from description
Five boost libs plus libcrypto are needed; I don't think that quite passes for minimal.

8f6111bb9c Update contrib/debian.
* Updates package description to note that blockchain now takes
  2+ GB instead of 150+ MB.

* Stop creating DB_CONFIG with DB_LOG_AUTO_REMOVE as that is set
  in Bitcoin itself now.

* Update changelog with 0.6.2 and the current updates.

65c82be021 Remove mentions on anonymity in debian folder.
These should never have been there, bitcoin isnt anonymous without
a ton of work that virtually no users will ever be willing and
capable of doing.
