Merge #15584: build: disable BIP70 support by default 
e09913f1c4 doc: specify protobuf as optional in build docs (fanquake)
376f4929f8 build: disable BIP70 support by default (fanquake)

Pull request description:

  Disable BIP70 support in the GUI by default for `0.19.0` (for eventual removal in `0.20.0`?).

  Users who want to compile with BIP70 support enabled can pass `--enable-bip70` to `./configure`.

  I've inverted the current `--disable-bip70` test to instead pass `--enable-bip70`.

  Tested configurations on `macOS` (`protobuf` installed with `brew`).
  Protobuf available and `./configure`:
  ```
  Options used to compile and link:
    with wallet   = yes
    with gui / qt = yes
      with bip70  = no
  ```

  Protobuf available and `./configure --enable-bip70`:
  ```
  Options used to compile and link:
    with wallet   = yes
    with gui / qt = yes
      with bip70  = yes
  ```

  Protobuf not available (i.e `brew unlink protobuf`) and `./configure`:
  ```
  Options used to compile and link:
    with wallet   = yes
    with gui / qt = yes
      with bip70  = no
  ```

  Protobuf not available and `./configure --enable-bip70`:
  ```
  checking whether to build test_bitcoin-qt... yes
  checking whether to build BIP70 support... configure: error: protobuf missing
  ```

  TODO:
  - [x] Remove `protobuf` from other Travis builds
  - [ ] Documentation updates (mention that `protobuf` is now optional)?
  - [ ] Could split release notes into GUI and build

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
