cf5f432 Add `-debuglogfile` option (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
Pull request description:
This patch adds an option to configure the name and/or directory of the debug log file.
The user can specify either a relative path, in which case the path is relative to the (network specific) data directory. They can also specify an absolute path to put the log anywhere else in the file system.
Alternative to #11741 that gets rid of the concept of a "log directory" by specifying the path for the specific kind of log, the debug log. Which happens to be the only kind of log we have at this point*, but a hypothetical new kind of log (say, an audit log) would get a new option. This has more flexibility than specifying a directory which has to contain all of them.
\* excluding `db.log` which is internally generated by the wallet database library, but that one moves along with `-walletdir`.

b4058ed Fix code constness in CBlockIndex::GetAncestor() overloads (Dan Raviv)
Pull request description:
Make the non-const overload of `CBlockIndex::GetAncestor()` reuse the const overload implementation instead of the other way around. This way, the constness of the const overload implementation is guaranteed. The other way around, it was possible to implement the non-const overload in a way which mutates the object, and since that implementation would be called even for const objects (due to the reuse), we would get undefined behavior.

9b80fc1 Prefix leveldb debug logging (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
Pull request description:
Add leveldb: prefix to leveldb debug logging lines.
leveldb debug messages come in various scary flavors such as:
2017-11-30 08:26:31 leveldb: Recovering log #26
2017-11-30 08:26:31 leveldb: Level-0 table #28: started
2017-11-30 08:26:31 leveldb: Level-0 table #28: 597 bytes OK
2017-11-30 08:26:31 leveldb: Delete type=0 #26
2017-11-30 08:26:31 leveldb: Delete type=3 #24
so it's reasonably important to mark them as coming from leveldb internals and not from consensus validation wallet or such.
This is consistent with the `libevent:` prefix for libevent messages.
(this only affects `-debug=leveldb` or `-debug=1` otherwise you won't see them in the first place)

d31e5c1 Fix shutdown in case of errors during initialization (Wladimir J. van der Laan)

PR #10286 introduced a few steps which are not robust to early shutdown in initialization.

2. Add a descrption about the evaluation order of `<include>` and

3. Add a description about the available logging category `"all"`
which is not explained.
4. Add `"optional"` to the help text of `<include>` and `<exclude>`.
5. Add missing new lines before `"Argument:"`.
6. `"0"`,`"1"` are allowed in both array of `<include>` and `<exclude>`.
`"0"` is **ignored** and `"1"` is treated **same as** `"all"`.

7. It always returns all logging categories with status.

ConnectBlock() relies on validation that happens in ContextualCheckBlock() and
ContextualCheckBlockHeader(). This has implications for implementing consensus
changes and handling software upgrade to ensure that nodes upgrading their
software end up enforcing all the consensus rules.
A) The changes in behavior are as follows:
1. Introduce logging category "none" as alias of "0" for
both RPC-logging and bitcoind "-debug" parameter.
2. Same as "0" is given to argument of "-debug",
if "none" or "0" is given to <include>, all other given logging
categories are ignored. The same is true for <exclude>.
(Before this PR, "0" was accepted but just be ignored itself.)
B) The changes in the help text are as follows:
1. Add a descrption about the evaluation order of <include> and
<exclude> to clarify how debug loggig categories to be set.
2. Delete text that describe restriction about libevent because
it's already allowed libevent logging to be updated during runtime.
3. Add a description for category "all", "1", "none" and "0".
4. Add "optional" to the help text of <include> and <exclude>.
5. Add missing new lines before "Argument:".
6. This RPC always returns all logging categories with status.

c3055bb Add help-console command to Qt debug console (Luke Mlsna)
Pull request description:
This PR would close issue #9195 by adding documentation for the debug console features (mainly nested commands) which were added in [PR #7783](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/7783).
The following changes were made to QT debug console code:
- Added a line to the initial message text at the top of the debug console:
> For more information on using this console type **help-console**.
- Added a pseudo-command `help-console` which is hooked after parsing the request, but before actually executing the RPC thread. It prints the following text to the console as if it were a valid RPC response.
> This console accepts RPC commands using the standard syntax.
> example: getblockhash 8
> This console can also accept RPC commands using bracketed syntax.
> example: getblockhash(8)
> A space or a comma can be used to separate arguments for either syntax.
> example: sendtoaddress \<address\> \<amount\>
> sendtoaddress,\<address\>,\<amount\>
> Commands may be nested when specified with the bracketed syntax.
> example: getblockinfo(getblockhash(0),true).
> Result values can be queried with a non-quoted string in brackets.
> example: getblock(getblockhash(0) true)[height]
This seemed like a reasonably sane way to introduce a fake RPC help command, but

Pull request description:
Closes#11348
Adds a `-walletdir` parameter which specifies a directory to use for wallets, allowing them to be stored separately from the 'main' data directory. Creates a new `wallets/` directory in datadir if this is the first time running, and defaults to using it if it exists.
Includes tests and release notes. Things which might need to be considered more:
- there is no 'lock' on the wallets directory, which might be needed?
- because this uses a new wallets/ directory by default, downgrading to an earlier version won't see the wallets in that directory (not a big deal though, users can just copy them up to the main dir)
- jnewbery suggested putting each wallet in its own directory, which is a good idea, but out of scope for this PR IMO. EDIT: this is being done in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11687
- doc/files.md needs updating (will do soon)
I also considered including a cleanup by removing caching of data directory paths and instead just initialise them once on startup (c.f. #3073), but decided it wasn't super relevant here will just complicate review.

- Added `help-console` to the list of autocompletion strings
- Implemented requested changes to help message:
- Added an example that uses access-by-index `getblock(getblockhash(0) true)[tx][0]`
- Replace "bracketed syntax" to "parenthesized syntax" where applicable
- Replace "separate" with "delimit"
- Removed `<br>` and `<b>help/help-console</b>` from translation strings, since these parts don't change between languages
- Changed examples to be based off `getblock 0` so they will work even with pruned/no blockchain and `disablewallet` if copied and pasted
- Clarified syntax for queries of named/unnamed result objects.
