A new AssertLockHeld(cs_wallet) call was added in commit a58370e
"Dedup nTimeFirstKey update logic" (part of PR #9108).
The lock held assertion will fail when loading prexisting wallets files from
before the #9108 merge that have watch-only keys.
When importing a watch-only address over importmulti with a specific timestamp,
the wallet's nTimeFirstKey is currently set to 1. After this change, the
provided timestamp will be used and stored as metadata associated with
watch-only key. This can improve wallet performance because it can avoid the
need to scan the entire blockchain for watch only addresses when timestamps are
provided.
Also adds timestamp to validateaddress return value (needed for tests).
Fixes#9034.

Due to include ordering, defining in one place was not enough to ensure correct
usage. Use global defines so that we don't have to worry abou this ordering.
Also add a comment in configure about the test.

This is ugly, but temporary. boost::filesystem will likely be dropped soon
after c++11 is enabled. Otherwise, we could simply roll our own copy_file. I've
fixed this at the buildsystem level for now in order to avoid mixing in
functional changes.
Explanation:
If boost (prior to 1.57) was built without c++11, it emulated scoped enums
using c++98 constructs. Unfortunately, this implementation detail leaked into
the abi. This was fixed in 1.57.
When building against that installed version using c++11, the headers pick up
on the native c++11 scoped enum support and enable it, however it will fail to
link. This can be worked around by disabling c++11 scoped enums if linking will
fail.
Add an autoconf test to determine incompatibility. At build-time, if native
enums are being used (a c++11 build), and force-disabling them causes a
successful link, we can be sure that there's an incompatibility and enable the
work-around.
Assume that when a wallet transaction has a valid block hash and transaction position
in it, the transaction is actually there. We're already trusting wallet data in a
much more fundamental way anyway.
To prevent backward compatibility issues, a new record is used for storing the
block locator in the wallet. Old wallets will see a wallet file synchronized up
to the genesis block, and rescan automatically.
