a9e898a4ad docs: Link to python style guidelines from developer notes (Mason Simon)

Pull request description:

  Initially I moved the python style guidelines from the functional test README, but some of the python rules are test-specific, and most of the developer notes doc is C++ centric, so just dropping a link seemed better.

Pull request description:

  - Update broken links
  - Improve command to generate list of authors for a release

  ---

  I also note that it asks to ping **wumpus** on IRC, to assist in generating a list of merged pulls and sort them into categories based on labels. I tried to turn this into a simple one-liner as well (something like ``git log --merges --format="- \`%h\` %s (%an)" v0.16.0..v0.16.1``), but it didn't seem to capture everything I needed.

  Would it be worthwhile **wumpus** open-sourcing his code into `contrib/devtools` so there is no single point of failure (even if it can manually be worked around).

caac39b0ac Make ZMQ notification interface instance global. (Daniel Kraft)

Pull request description:

  This adds a new RPC method `getzmqnotifications`, which returns information about all active ZMQ notification endpoints.  This is useful for software that layers on top of bitcoind, so it can verify that ZeroMQ is enabled and also figure out where it should listen.

  See #13526.

bad068ad9f build: Build system changes to support only Qt5 (Wladimir J. van der Laan)

Pull request description:

  Implements #8263.

  Qt4.x has been EOL since 2015, and at least Gentoo has, or is going to drop support for it. I wouldn't be surprised if other Linux distributions follow.

  This removes Qt4 detection from the build system, as well as removes all Qt4 fallbacks from the code. Turns out there's more than I expected: this is going to make maintenance of the GUI code, as well as adding new features significantly easier.

  (I know there's still some references left to qt4 in RPM and Debian build script, but I don't have the knowledge how to fix them)

Pull request description:

  When analysing includes in the project it is often assumed that the preferred bracket include syntax (`#include <foo.h>`) mentioned in `developer-docs.md` is used consistently. @sipa:s excellent circular dependencies script [`circular-dependencies.py`](50c69b7801/contrib/devtools/circular-dependencies.py) (#13228) is an example of a script making this reasonable assumption.

  This PR enables automatic Travis checking of the include syntax making sure that the bracket syntax includes (`#include <foo.h>`) is used consistently.

cbede7dbfd [qt] OptionsDialog: add prune setting (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  The default suggested value is 2 GB. Minimum is 1 GB (550 MB rounded up).

  When the user toggles this setting, a strong warning appears that undoing requires re-downloading the chain:

  <img width="478" alt="schermafbeelding 2018-05-15 om 12 35 24" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10217/40051858-7939cc20-583c-11e8-9120-327a75376732.png">

  Tooltip points out that actual disk usage can be higher. It's a bit vague on the "advanced features", because I'm assuming anyone who needs to use `-rescan` and `-txindex` will read the documentation, and a more detailed text would needlessly confuse everyone else.

  <img width="450" alt="schermafbeelding 2018-05-15 om 12 33 51" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10217/40051791-49d6156a-583c-11e8-97b9-7de6dfd8c481.png">

  The UI uses gigabytes for readability and easy of use. There is also no manual pruning UI (`prune=1`). The user will have to use `bitcoin.conf` for those things.

  Fixes #6461. When combined with #13029 the user, after pruning their node, can safely reset settings and/or use bitcoind without having to edit `bitcoin.conf`. However I don't think that's an essential prerequisite.
