7cb1a1401d Explain that unused mempool memory is added to -dbcache (Sjors Provoost)
Pull request description:
Since `-maxmempool` is 450 MB by default it's quite possible for a user to accidentally OOM a low
memory device if they increase `-dbcache` beyond the default.

Fixed by this PR.
UPDATE (inspired by @laanwj's [comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/15278#discussion_r252641810)):
Not being able to create the PID file is fatal now.

**Notes for reviewers**
1. `CreatePidFile()` has been moved from `util/system.cpp` to `init.cpp` for the following reasons:
- to get the ability to use `InitError()`
- now `init.cpp` contains code of both creating PID file and removing it
2. Regarding 0.18 release process: this PR modifies 1 string and introduces 2 new ones.

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)

6f6514a080 Correct units for "-dbcache" and "-prune" (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
Actually, all `dbcache`-related values in the code are measured in MiB (not in megabytes, MB) or in bytes (e.g., `nTotalCache`).
See: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/txdb.hba8c8b2227/src/init.cpp (L1405-L1424)
Also, "-prune" is fixed:
1. The GUI values in GB are translated to the node values in MiB correctly.
2. The maximum of the "prune" `QSpinBox` is not limited by default value of 99 (GB).
Fix: #15106

Pull request description:
The blocks directory is net specific by definition.
Also this prevents the side effect of calling `GetBlocksDir(false)` in the non-mainnet environment.
Currently a new node creates an unused `blocks\` directory in the root of the data directory when `-testnet` or `-regtest` is specified.

645e905c32 doc: Add release notes for unloadwallet change to synchronous call (João Barbosa)
c37851de57 rpc: Make unloadwallet wait for complete wallet unload (João Barbosa)
Pull request description:
Currently the `unloadwallet` RPC is asynchronous, it only signals the intent to unload the wallet and then returns the response to the client. The actual unload can happen later and the client has no way to be notified of that.
This PR makes the `unloadwallet` RPC synchronous, meaning that it blocks until the wallet is fully unloaded.
Replaces #14919, fixes#14917.

By indicating the password hashing algorithm, users of bitcoin distributions without the script in `share/rpcauth` and users who don't want to rely on said script can use alternative means to generate the password hash.
Question for reviewers: perhaps we should also indicate that it is specifically a HMAC-SHA-256 of the _**UTF-8**_ encoding of their password?

48b37db50 make peertimeout a debug argument, remove error message translation (Zain Iqbal Allarakhia)
8042bbfbf p2p: allow p2ptimeout to be configurable, speed up slow test (Zain Iqbal Allarakhia)
Pull request description:
**Summary:**
1. _Primary_: Adds a `debug_only=true` flag for peertimeout, defaults to 60 sec., the current hard-coded setting.
2. _Secondary_: Drastically speeds up `p2p_timeout.py` test.
3. _Secondary_: Tests that the correct code path is being tested by adding log assertions to the test.
**Rationale:**
- P2P timeout was hard-coded: make it explicitly specified and configurable, instead of a magic number.
- Addresses #13518; `p2p_timeout.py` takes 4 sec. to run instead of 61 sec.
- Makes `p2p_timeout.py` more explicit. Previously, we relied on a comment to inform us of the timeout amount being tested. Now it is specified directly in the test via passing in the new arg; `-peertimeout=3`.
- Opens us up to testing more P2P scenarios; oftentimes slow tests are the reason we don't test.

In the config file, sections are specified by square bracket pair "[]"$,
or included in the option name itself which separated by a period"(.)".
Typicaly, [testnet] is not a correct section name and specified options
in that section are ignored but user cannot recognize what is happen.
So, add some log/stderr-warning messages if unrecognized section names
are present in the config file after checking section only args.
Route calls during node initialization and shutdown that would happen between a
node process and wallet processes through the serializable `Chain::Client`
interface, rather than `WalletInitInterface` which is now simpler and only
deals with early initialization and parameter interaction.
This commit mostly does not change behavior. The only change is that the
"Wallet disabled!" and "No wallet support compiled in!" messages are now logged
earlier during startup.
This commit does not change behavior. All it does is pass new function
parameters.
It is easiest to review this change with:

3ccfa34b32 convert C-style (void) parameter lists to C++ style () (Arvid Norberg)
Pull request description:
In C, an empty parameter list, `()`, means the function takes any arguments, and `(void)` means the function does not take any parameters.
In C++, an empty parameter list means the function does not take any parameters.
So, C++ still supports `(void)` parameter lists with the same semantics, why change to `()`?
1. removing the redundant `void` improves signal-to-noise ratio of the code
2. using `(void)` exposes a rare inconsistency in that a template taking a template `(T)` parameter list, cannot be instantiated with `T=void`
