Pull request description:
This does not remove OpenSSL, but makes our own PRNG the 'main' one; for GetStrongRandBytes, the OpenSSL RNG is still used (indirectly, by feeding its output into our PRNG state).
It includes a few policy changes (regarding what entropy is seeded when).
Before this PR:
* GetRand*:
* OpenSSL
* GetStrongRand*:
* CPU cycle counter
* Perfmon data (on Windows, once 10 min)
* /dev/urandom (or equivalent)
* rdrand (if available)
* From scheduler when idle:
* CPU cycle counter before and after 1ms sleep
* At startup:
* CPU cycle counter before and after 1ms sleep
After this PR:
* GetRand*:
* Stack pointer (which indirectly identifies thread and some call stack information)
* rdrand (if available)
* CPU cycle counter
* GetStrongRand*:
* Stack pointer (which indirectly identifies thread and some call stack information)
* rdrand (if available)
* CPU cycle counter
* /dev/urandom (or equivalent)
* OpenSSL
* CPU cycle counter again
* From scheduler when idle:
* Stack pointer (which indirectly identifies thread and some call stack information)
* rdrand (if available)
* CPU cycle counter before and after 1ms sleep
* Perfmon data (on Windows, once every 10 min)
* At startup:
* Stack pointer (which indirectly identifies thread and some call stack information)
* rdrand (if available)
* CPU cycle counter
* /dev/urandom (or equivalent)
* OpenSSL
* CPU cycle counter again
* Perfmon data (on Windows, once every 10 min)
The interface of random.h is also simplified, and documentation is added.
This implements most of #14623.

This guarantees that OpenSSL is initialized properly whenever randomness
is used, even when that randomness is invoked from global constructors.
Note that this patch uses Mutex directly, rather than CCriticalSection.
This is because the lock-detection code is not necessarily initialized
during global constructors.
89282379ba threads: fix unitialized members in sched_param (Cory Fields)
Pull request description:
Rebased theuni's #14342.
Building with gcc 8.2 against musl libc, which apparently has more attributes available in its sched_param. The following warnings were produced:
warning: missing initializer for member 'sched_param::sched_ss_low_priority' [-Wmissing-field-initializers]
warning: missing initializer for member 'sched_param::sched_ss_repl_period' [-Wmissing-field-initializers]
warning: missing initializer for member 'sched_param::sched_ss_init_budget' [-Wmissing-field-initializers]
warning: missing initializer for member 'sched_param::sched_ss_max_repl' [-Wmissing-field-initializers]
Since the current thread may have interesting non-zero values for these fields, we want to be sure to only change the intended one. Query and modify the current sched_param rather than starting from a zeroed one.

e4a0c3547e Improve blocksdir functional test. (Hennadii Stepanov)
c3f1821ac7 Make blockdir always net specific (Hennadii Stepanov)
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.

we want to be sure to only change the intended one. Query and modify the
current sched_param rather than starting from a zeroed one.
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.
