d0b1cee1fe doc: -help-debug implies -help
I don't understand why `-help-debug` would be useful without requesting
the help, and I've made this particular mistake one time too many.

(ok, so apparently the original reason that -help-debug is an option is
to show debug options in the GUI option overview? that seems very
unlikely to ever be used, if someone wants to add a way to show debug
options in the GUI it'd be better to have a check box)

Merge #14057: [Logging] Only log "Using config file PATH_TO_bitcoin.conf" message on startup if conf file exists
946107a68f Only log "Using PATH_TO_bitcoin.conf" message on startup if conf file exists. (Alexander Leishman)

Pull request description:

  Currently we log a message indicating that a bitcoin.conf file is being used even if one does not exist. This PR changes the logic to:

  **If config file does not exist and no -conf flag passed, log:**
  `Config file: FILE_PATH (not found, skipping)`. Where `FILE_PATH` is the default or the path passed in with the `-conf` flag.

  **If config file does not exist and -conf flag passed with incorrect path, log warning:**
  `Warning: The specified config file FILE_PATH does not exist`

  **If config file exists, log**:
  `Config file: FILE_PATH`

  Note: This is a (modified) subset of changes introduced in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/13761 which creates a default example config file. I think it makes sense to extract this small bit out into a separate PR.

e9a78e9b3b doc: Change documentation for =0 for non-boolean options
PR #12713 changed the interpretation for negation of non-boolean options
(e.g. -noconnect) to no longer set the option to 0, but to remove it
from the options.

I think this is better because it gets rid of the special meaning of
'0'.

However it needs to be documented. I attempt to do so in this PR.
Addreses #14064.

Pull request description:

  Following #10825, regtest ports for p2p connections and JSON-RPC connections have been remapped from 18333 and 18332 to 18444 and 18443.

190bf62be1 scripted-diff: Small locking rename
Call sync.h primitives "locks" and "mutexes" instead of "blocks" and "waitable
critical sections" to match current coding conventions and c++11 standard
names.

This PR does not rename the "CCriticalSection" class (though this could be done
as a followup) because it is used everywhere and would swamp the other changes
in this PR. Plain mutexes should mostly be preferred instead of recursive
mutexes in new code anyway.

Merge #13634: ui: Compile boost::signals2 only once
fa5ce27385 ui: Compile boost:signals2 only once (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  ui is one of the modules that poison other modules with `boost/signals2` headers. This moves the include to the cpp file and uses a forward declaration in the header.

  Locally this speeds up the incremental build (building everything that uses the ui module) with gcc by ~5% for me. Gcc uses ~5% less memory.

  Would be nice if someone could verify the numbers roughly.

  I presume the improvements will be more pronounced if the other models would stop exposing the boost header as well.

1d4df02b7e [move-only] Move things only referenced in net_processing out of header file (Jesse Cohen)
02bbc05310 Rescope g_enable_bip61 to net_processing (Jesse Cohen)

Pull request description:

  As part of a larger effort to decouple net_processing and validation a bit, these are a bunch of simple scope cleanups. I've moved things out of the header file that are only referenced in net_processing and added static (or anonymous namespace) modifiers to everything possible in net_processing.

  There are a handful of functions which could be static except that they are exposed for the sake of unit testing - these are explicitly commented. There has been some discussion of a compile time annotation, but no conclusion has been reached on that yet.

  This is somewhat related to other prs #12934 #13413 #13407 and will be followed by prs that reduce reliance on cs_main to synchronize data structures which are translation unit local to net_processing

Fix command line help for -printtoconsole and -debuglogfile
#13004 changed the default behavior for printtoconsole but this has not been reflected in the command line help.

This fixes the description of -printtoconsole to reflect this change, and also provides the user with missing information on how to explicitly disable logging to debug.log.

At present I have made the latter update to two separate places (-printtoconsole and -debuglogfile) because a user looking for information on how to disable logging is probably going to look in the "Debugging/Testing Options" section. Moving -debuglogfile from the "General" options category to the "Debugging/Testing" section could potentially remove the need for this redundancy but may be out of the scope of this PR.

Merge #13577: logging: avoid nStart may be used uninitialized in AppInitMain warning
2dcd7b4ec logging: avoid nStart may be used uninitialized in AppInitMain warning (mruddy)

Pull request description:

  Was getting the following compiler warning:

  ```
  init.cpp: In function ‘bool AppInitMain()’:
  init.cpp:1616:60: warning: ‘nStart’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
           LogPrintf(" block index %15dms\n", GetTimeMillis() - nStart);
  ```

  It's ok without this PR, but this PR renames `nStart` to `load_block_index_start_time`, makes it `const`, and also reduces the scope of the variable.

  The logging line is moved such that the the time spent will be logged even if a shutdown is requested while the index is being loaded.

  Having the log message output even when a shutdown is requested may be how this was intended to work before anyways. That could explain the leading space, as such a log message now looks like:
  ```

Most includers just wanted to react to pending shutdown.

This isolates access to `fRequestShutdown` and limits access to the shutdown

This change also triggered a build error in bench. Fixing it required moving LIBBITCOIN_SERVER after LIBBITCOIN_WALLET in bench_bench_bitcoin_LDADD To make

Merge #13241: scripted-diff: Avoid temporary copies when looping over std::map
9b72c988a0 scripted-diff: Avoid temporary copies when looping over std::map (Ben Woosley)

Pull request description:

  The ::value_type of the std::map/std::multimap/std::unordered_map containers is
  std::pair<const Key, T>. Dropping the const results in an unnecessary copy,
  for example in C++11 range-based loops.

  For this I started with a more general scripted diff, then narrowed it down
  based on the inspection showing that all actual map/multimap/unordered_map
  variables used in loops start with m or have map in the name.

c2dfbb4a97 Add unavailable options to hidden options category
Options that are not available (but known in the source code) will
cause an error if they are specified.
Make these options "available" by adding them to the hidden options
category to prevent conf files from failing when shared between binaries
that have different options available.

3d4fa83587 Stop translating command line options
Many options are extremely technical, and refer internals, making it
difficult to translate usefully. This came up in discussion of e.g.
 #10949. If a message is not understood by translators (which are
typically end-users, not developers) they'll either translate it
literally, making it harder to understand instead of easier, with the
added drawback of the user no longer being able to google it.

Also the translation was only working for bitcoin-qt as with
the console programs, there is no translation backend. So it was
injecting never-used translation messages for bitcoin-cli, -tx.

For these reasons, stop translating options help completely. This should
not affect the output **in any way** except for bitcoin-qt when a
non-English language is configured in the locale.

This implements #10962.

fe16dd8226 net: Add option -enablebip61 to configure sending of BIP61 notifications
This commit adds a boolean option `-enablebip61`, defaulting to `1`, that
can be used to disable the sending of BIP61 `reject` messages. This
functionality has been requested for various reasons:

- security (DoS): reject messages can reveal internal state that can be
  used to target certain resources such as the mempool more easily.

- bandwidth: a typical node sends lots of reject messages; this counts
  against upstream bandwidth. Also the reject messages tend to be larger
  than the message that was rejected.

On the other hand, reject messages can be useful while developing client
software (I found them indispensable while creating bitcoin-submittx),
as well as for our own test cases, so whatever the default becomes on the
long run, IMO the functionality should be retained as option. But that's
a discussion for later.

Merge #10267: New -includeconf argument for including external configuration files
25b7ab9 doc: Add release notes for -includeconf (Karl-Johan Alm)
0f0badd test: Test includeconf parameter. (Karl-Johan Alm)
629ff8c -includeconf=<path> support in config handler, for including external configuration files (Karl-Johan Alm)

Pull request description:

  Fixes: #10071.

  Done:
  - adds `-includeconf=<path>`, where `<path>` is relative to `datadir` or to the path of the file being read, if in a file
  - protects against circular includes
  - updates help docs

  ~~~Thoughts:~~~
  - ~~~I am not sure how to test this in a neat manner. Feedback on this would be nice. Will dig/think though.~~~
