Most bitcoin.conf options apply to all three networks,
however some apply only to mainnet unless specified in a section.
As stands, conf file has no indication that sections are now in use
or are in some circumstances mandatory (eg, changing rpcport for testnet.)
Proposed change notifies the reader early which options are affected,
specifically adds those options affected but not already in the example,
adds brief explanation as to what's going on and provides a skeleton template for the sections themselves.
Previously, when iterating over bytes of the generated salt to construct
a hex string, only one character would be outputted when the byte is
less than 0x10. Meaning that for a 16 byte salt, the hex string might be
less than 32 characters and collisions would occur.

8563341714 Bugfix: NSIS: Exclude Makefile* from docs (Luke Dashjr)
Pull request description:
Otherwise, the generated Makefile is included in the NSIS-installed documentation, which can lead to non-determinism (eg, if gawk is installed on some build VMs, but others only have mawk)
(gawk is part of the standard Ubuntu bionic server install, but for some reason missing on many other developers' build VMs.)
(Branch is safe to merge cleanly into 0.14-0.17 branches also)
Testing requested. I have a separate `fix_nsis_makefile` branch directly on the `v0.17.0rc1` tag, which produces for me (with gawk installed):

Pull request description:
~~Make sure `LC_ALL=C` is set when using `grep` range expressions.~~
Make sure `LC_ALL=C` is set in all shell scripts.
From the `grep(1)` documentation:
> Within a bracket expression, a range expression consists of two characters separated by a hyphen. It matches any single character that sorts between the two characters, inclusive, using the locale's collating sequence and character set. For example, in the default C locale, `[a-d]` is equivalent to `[abcd]`. Many locales sort characters in dictionary order, and in these locales `[a-d]` is typically not equivalent to `[abcd]`; it might be equivalent to `[aBbCcDd]`, for example. To obtain the traditional interpretation of bracket expressions, you can use the C locale by setting the `LC_ALL` environment variable to the value C.

7d8a8cc Avoid launching as admin when NSIS installer ends. (JeremyRand)
Pull request description:
The Bitcoin Core NSIS script runs with elevated privileges. Unfortunately, this means that it launches Bitcoin Core itself with elevated privileges when the user chooses to launch Bitcoin Core at the end of the installation procedure. This PR works around the issue by having `explorer.exe` launch Bitcoin Core. Seems to be a similar approach to what http://nsis.sourceforge.net/ShellExecAsUser_plug-in does, but without a plugin.
I've tested this with Sysinternals Process Explorer on Windows 10 32-bit. I wouldn't expect any differences in behavior on other Windows releases, but if anyone would like to test on other Windows releases, feel free.
