Pull request description:
Fixes#11777. Reverts #11006. Replaces #13501.
With this change the HTTP server will exit gracefully, meaning that all requests will finish processing and sending the response, even if this means to wait more than 2 seconds (current time allowed to exit the event loop).
Another small change is that connections are accepted even when the server is stopping, but HTTP requests are rejected. This can be improved later, especially if chunked replies are implemented.
Briefly, before this PR, this is the order or events when a request arrives (RPC `stop`):
1. `bufferevent_disable(..., EV_READ)`
2. `StartShutdown()`
3. `evhttp_del_accept_socket(...)`
4. `ThreadHTTP` terminates (event loop exits) because there are no active or pending events thanks to 1. and 3.
5. client doesn't get the response thanks to 4.
This can be verified by applying
```diff
// Event loop will exit after current HTTP requests have been handled, so
// this reply will get back to the client.
StartShutdown();
+ MilliSleep(2000);
return "Bitcoin server stopping";
}
```
and checking the log output:
```
Received a POST request for / from 127.0.0.1:62443
ThreadRPCServer method=stop user=__cookie__

```
For this reason point 3. is moved right after all HTTP workers quit. In that moment HTTP replies are queued in the event loop which keeps spinning util all connections are closed. In order to trigger the server side close with keep alive connections (implicit in HTTP/1.1) the header `Connection: close` is sent if shutdown was requested. This can be tested by
```
bitcoind -regtest
nc localhost 18443
POST / HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Basic ...
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: 44
{"jsonrpc": "2.0","method":"stop","id":123}
```
Summing up, this PR:
- removes explicit event loop exit — event loop exits once there are no active or pending events
- changes the moment the listening sockets are removed — explained above
- sends header `Connection: close` on active requests when shutdown was requested which is relevant when it's a persistent connection (default in HTTP 1.1) — libevent is aware of this header and closes the connection gracefully
- removes event loop explicit break after 2 seconds timeout

maximum memory use increase.
This requires a small changes to a few tests, but means that

If a node has not announced a tx at all, then it should respond to
getdata messages for that tx with notfound, to avoid leaking tx
origination privacy.
Adds a generate() method to the TestNode class in the test framework.
This method intercepts calls to generate, imports a dewterministic
private key to the node and then calls generatetoaddress to generate the
block to that address.
Note that repeated calls to importprivkey for the same private keys are
no-ops, so it's fine to call the generate() method many times.

- The wallet_multiwallet.py fail is unrelated to the test framework, it's a bug related to c++ code or maybe dependencies. `bitcoind` would exit with 0xC0000005(Access violation) during shutdown occasionally. Disable this for now.
- Not using `--failfast` because this is still in experimental. We should track if there is any other error.
- Disable ZMQ tests because the python zmq library could cause access violation sometimes.
- Disable `feature_notifications` because Bitcoin Core handles the command in different thread, whicha can cause a race condition.

Pull request description:
This is the replacement for #11678 which implements @ryanofsky's [suggestion](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11678#pullrequestreview-76464511).
Shutting down the software was to prevent the BDB environment from writing unencrypted private keys to disk in the database log files, as was noted [here](https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=51474.msg616068#msg616068). This PR replaces the shutdown behavior with a CDBEnv flush, close, and reopen which achieves the same effect: everything is cleanly flushed and closed, the log files are removed, and then the environment reopened to continue normal operation.
To ensure that no unencrypted private keys are in the log files after encrypting the wallet, I wrote [this script](https://gist.github.com/achow101/7f7143e6c3d3fdc034d3470e72823e9d) to pull private keys from the original wallet file and searches for these keys in the log files (note that you will have to change your file paths to make it work on your own machine).
As for concerns about private keys being written to slack space or being kept in memory, these behaviors no longer exist after the original wallet encryption PR and the shutting down solution from 2011.

Pull request description:
Currently the functional tests require the wallet module to be compiled into the Bitcoin Core executable. For example the premine (or datadir cache) to speed up tests when run in parallel would mine a bunch of blocks and store the private keys to sign the coinbase tx outputs in a wallet. There is no need to have the overhead of the whole wallet module by using keys that are deterministic for all runs.
Note that this change most likely requires the `./test/cache/` to be cleared.

Enable automatic detection of undefined names in Python tests scripts. Remove wildcard imports.
Wildcard imports make it unclear which names are present in the namespace, confusing both readers and many automated tools.

Pull request description:
### qa: Close stdout and stderr file when node stops
Since these files are potentially deleted by the test framework for cleanup, they should be closed first. Otherwise this will lead to errors on Windows when the tests finish successfully.
Side note: After the patch, it is no longer possible to reopen the file on Windows (see https://docs.python.org/3/library/tempfile.html#tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile)
### qa: Run gen_rpcauth with sys.executable
Similar to `test_runner.py`, the `sys.executable` needs to be passed down into subprocesses to pass on native Windows. (Should have no effect on Linux)
### qa: Use files for stdout/stderr to support Windows
It seems that using PIPE is not supported on Windows. Also, it is easier to just use the files that capture the stdout and stderr within the test node class.

fa67505e1e qa: Quote wallet name for rpc path (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
When using external multiwallets they are specified by their full path which might contain non-ascii characters (e.g. umlauts or emojis).
Fix this by url-quoting the path.

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/13715 introduced a new check
for _transport.is_closing() in mininode's P2PConnection's. This function
is only available from Python 3.4.4, though, while Bitcoin is supposed
to support all Python 3.4 versions.
In this change, we make the check conditional on is_closing() being
available. If it is not, then we revert to the behaviour before the
check was introduced; this means that
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/13579 is not fixed for old
systems, but at least the tests work as they used to do before.
This includes a small refactoring from a one-line lambda to an
inline function, because this makes the code easier to read with more
and more conditions being added.
Fixes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/13745.

Pull request description:
This mode ('createwallet {"disableprivatekeys": true}') is intended for a sane pure watch-only mode, ideal for a use-case where one likes to use Bitcoin-Core in conjunction with a hardware-wallet or another solutions for cold-storage.
Since we have support for custom change addresses in `fundrawtransaction`, pure watch-only wallets including coin-selection are possible and do make sense for some use cases.
This new mode disables all forms of private key generation and ensure that no mix between hot and cold keys are possible.

d280617bf5 [qa] Add a test for merkle proof malleation (Suhas Daftuar)
ed82f17000 have verifytxoutproof check the number of txns in proof structure (Gregory Sanders)
Pull request description:
Recent publication of a weakness in Bitcoin's merkle tree construction demonstrates many SPV applications vulnerable to an expensive to pull off yet still plausible attack: https://bitslog.wordpress.com/2018/06/09/leaf-node-weakness-in-bitcoin-merkle-tree-design/
This change would at least allow `verifytxoutproof` to properly validate that the proof matches a known block, with known number of transactions any time after the full block is processed. This should neuter the attack entirely.
The negative is that a header-only processed block/future syncing mode would cause this to fail until the node has imported the data required.

`importprunedfunds` needs this check as well. Can expand it to cover this if people like the idea.
