1bf3f33b46 node: Removed unused wallet-related methods from the Node interface. (Thomas Snider)
b38200459f benchmark: Removed bench/perf.cpp (Thomas Snider)
Pull request description:
Not sure if these should be separate PRs.
First is removal of a platform abstraction for getting cycle counters where possible. Since the benchmarking switch to counting number of iterations over a fixed window instead of counting cycles per iteration, these are unused.
Second is removal of a few methods from the Node interface that seem vestigial from when the concepts of wallet/node were not as clearly separated.

Pull request description:
This implements the compact block filter construction in [BIP 158](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0158.mediawiki). The code is not used anywhere in the Bitcoin Core code base yet. The next step towards [BIP 157](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0157.mediawiki) support would be to create an indexing module similar to `TxIndex` that constructs the basic and extended filters for each validated block.
### Filter Sizes
[Here](https://gateway.ipfs.io/ipfs/QmRqaAAQZ5ZX5eqxP7J2R1MzFrc2WDdKSWJEKtQzyawqog) is a CSV of filter sizes for blocks in the main chain.
As you can see below, the ratio of filter size to block size drops after the first ~150,000 blocks:
The reason for the relatively large filter sizes is that Golomb-coded sets only achieve good compression with a sufficient number of elements. Empirically, the average element size with 100 elements is 14% larger than with 10,000 elements.
The ratio of filter size to block size is computed without witness data for basic filters. Here is a summary table of filter size ratios *for blocks after height 150,000*:
| Stat | Filter Type |
|-------|--------------|
| Weighted Size Ratio Mean | 0.0198 |
| Size Ratio Mean | 0.0224 |
| Size Ratio Std Deviation | 0.0202 |
| Mean Element Size (bits) | 21.145 |
| Approx Theoretical Min Element Size (bits) | 21.025 |

fa013664ae23d0682a195b9bded85bc19c99536e util: Add type safe GetTime (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
There are basically two ways to get the time in Bitcoin Core:
* get the system time (via `GetSystemTimeInSeconds` or `GetTime{Millis,Micros}`)
* get the mockable time (via `GetTime`)
Both return the same type (a plain int). This can lead to (test-only) bugs such as 99464bc38e.
Fix that by deprecating `GetTime` and adding a `GetTime<>` that returns the mockable time in a non-int type. The new util function is currently unused, but new code should it where possible.

5aad635 Use memset() to optimize prevector::resize() (Evan Klitzke)
e46be25 Reduce redundant code of prevector and speed it up (Akio Nakamura)
f0e7aa7 Add new prevector benchmarks. (Evan Klitzke)
Pull request description:
This branch optimizes various `prevector` operations, especially resizing vectors. While profiling the `loadblk` thread I noticed that a lot of time was being spent in `prevector::resize()` which led to this work. I have some data here indicating that it takes up **37%** of the time in `ReadBlockFromDisk()`: https://monad.io/readblockfromdisk.svg
This branch improves things significantly. For trivial types, the new results for the prevector benchmark are:
* `PrevectorClearTrivial` which tests `prevector::clear()` becomes 24.6x faster
* `PrevectorDestructorTrivial` which tests `prevector::~prevector()` becomes 20.5x faster
* `PrevectorResizeTrivial` which tests `prevector::resize()` becomes 20.3x faster
Note that in practice it looks like the prevector is only used to contain `unsigned char` types, which is a trivial type. The benchmarks are testing a bit of an extreme case, but the changes here are motivated by the profiling data for `ReadBlockFromDisk()` I linked to above.
The pull request here consists of a series of three commits:
* The first adds new benchmarks but does not change the prevector code.
* The second is from @AkioNak , and merges some prevector optimizations he submitted in #11988
* The third optimizes `prevector::resize()` to use `memset()` when the prevector contains trivially constructible types

Pull request description:
This introduces a framework for specialized double-SHA256 with 64 byte inputs. 4 different implementations are provided:
* Generic C++ (reusing the normal SHA256 code)
* Specialized C++ for 64-byte inputs, but no special instructions
* 4-way using SSE4.1 intrinsics
* 8-way using AVX2 intrinsics
On my own system (AVX2 capable), I get these benchmarks for computing the Merkle root of 9001 leaves (supported lengths / special instructions / parallellism):
* 7.2 ms with varsize/naive/1way (master, non-SSE4 hardware)
* 5.8 ms with size64/naive/1way (this PR, non-SSE4 capable systems)
* 4.8 ms with varsize/SSE4/1way (master, SSE4 hardware)
* 2.9 ms with size64/SSE4/4way (this PR, SSE4 hardware)
* 1.1 ms with size64/AVX2/8way (this PR, AVX2 hardware)

* Add libbacktrace to depends
This is currently only useful to extract symbols. It fails to gather
stacktraces when compiled with MinGW, so we can only use it to get symbol
information from a stack trace which we gathered outside of libbacktrace.
* Add -mbig-obj to CXXFLAGS for MinGW builds
* Implement stacktraces for C++ exceptions
This is a hack and should only be used for debugging. It works by wrapping
the C++ ABI __wrap___cxa_allocate_exception. The wrapper records a backtrace
and stores it in a global map. Later the stacktrace can be retrieved with
GetExceptionStacktraceStr.
This commit also adds handlers to pretty print uncaught exceptions and
signals.
* Use GetPrettyExceptionStr for all unhandled exceptions
* Use --enable-stacktraces in CI for linux32/linux64
* Register exception translators to pretty print exceptions in unit tests
* Catch and print python exceptions when stopping nodes
Otherwise the code at the bottom is never executed when nodes crash,
leading to no output of debug.log files on Travis.
* Remove now unneeded/unused TestCrash methods
* Use Dash block for DeserializeAndCheckBlockTest
Replaced Bitcoin block with the largest Dash block I could find on mainnet.
* Store hashDevnetGenesisBlock in Consensus::Params
Remove the need for chainparams to be available when the devnetGenesis hash
is needed. Fixes a crash in CheckBlockHeader() when called from benchmarking
code, which does not initialize the Params() function.

Avoid calling gettimeofday every time through the benchmarking loop, by keeping
track of how long each loop takes and doubling the number of iterations done
between time checks when they take less than 1/16'th of the total elapsed time.
Benchmarking framework, loosely based on google's micro-benchmarking
library (https://github.com/google/benchmark)
Wny not use the Google Benchmark framework? Because adding Even More Dependencies
isn't worth it. If we get a dozen or three benchmarks and need nanosecond-accurate
timings of threaded code then switching to the full-blown Google Benchmark library
should be considered.
The benchmark framework is hard-coded to run each benchmark for one wall-clock second,
and then spits out .csv-format timing information to stdout. It is left as an
exercise for later (or maybe never) to add command-line arguments to specify which
benchmark(s) to run, how long to run them for, how to format results, etc etc etc.
Again, see the Google Benchmark framework for where that might end up.
See src/bench/MilliSleep.cpp for a sanity-test benchmark that just benchmarks
'sleep 100 milliseconds.'
To compile and run benchmarks:
cd src; make bench
Sample output:
Benchmark,count,min,max,average
Sleep100ms,10,0.101854,0.105059,0.103881
