4446ef0a549d567a88d82b606aa8c47f115673f9 build: remove support for weak linking getauxval() (fanquake)
e56100c5b4daf2285dde9807bf654599aa19bd6b build: remove arm includes from getauxval() check (fanquake)
Pull request description:
It was [pointed out in #23030](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/23030#issuecomment-922893367) that we might be able to get rid of our weak linking of [`getauxval()`](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/getauxval.3.html) (`HAVE_WEAK_GETAUXVAL`) entirely, with only Android being a potential holdout:
> I wonder if it's time to get rid of HAVE_WEAK_GETAUXVAL. I think it's confusing. Either we build against a C library that has this functionality, or not. We don't do this weak linking thing for any other symbols and recently got rid of the other glibc backwards compatibility stuff.
> Unless there is still a current platform that really needs it (Android?), I'd prefer to remove it from the build system, it has caused enough issues.
After looking at Android further, it would seem that given we are moving to using `std::filesystem`, which [requires NDK version 22 and later](https://github.com/android/ndk/wiki/Changelog-r22), and `getauxval` has been available in the since [API version 18](https://developer.android.com/ndk/guides/cpu-features#features_using_libcs_getauxval3), that shouldn't really be an issue. Support for API levels < 19 will be dropped with the NDK 24 release, and according to [one website](https://apilevels.com/), supporting API level 18+ will cover ~99% of devices. Note that in the CI we currently build with NDK version 22 and API level 28.
The other change in this PR is removing the include of headers for ARM intrinsics, from the check for strong `getauxval()` support in configure, as they shouldn't be needed. Including these headers also meant that the check would basically only succeed when building for ARM. This would be an issue if we remove weak linking, as we wouldn't detect `getauxval()` as supported on other platforms. Note that we also use `getauxval()` in our RNG when it's available.
I've checked that with these changes we detect support for strong `getauxval()` on Alpine (muslibc). On Linux, previously we'd be detecting support for weak getauxval(), now we detect strong support. Note that we already require glibc 2.17, and `getauxval()` was introduced in `2.16`.
This is an alternative / supersedes #23030.

0660119ac372c2863d14060ac1bc9bc243771f94 Drop unintended bitcoin-tx dependency on libevent (Russell Yanofsky)
Pull request description:
This fixes compile errors trying to build bitcoin-tx and bitcoin-wallet without libevent, which were reported by Luke Dashjr in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/18465
The fix avoiding `bitcoin-tx` dependency on libevent just adds a conditional build rule. This is implemented in the first commit (more details in commit description).
The fix avoiding `bitcoin-wallet` dependency on libevent requires minor code changes, because `bitcoin-wallet` (unlike `bitcoin-tx`) links against code that calls `urlDecode` / `evhttp_uridecode`. This fix is implemented in the second commit (again details in the commit description).

## Issue being fixed or feature implemented
The order of members in a class/struct definition and the order of their
initialization should match. This ensures that the code is more
error-proof in cases where the order of member initializations is
important, as they may depend on each other.
Instead manual checking of member initialization better let CI handle
it.

6cef3652d143a1dddad1254cab0953561d24c1fa build: fix -Wformat-security check when compiling with GCC (fanquake)
Pull request description:
GCC expects `-Wformat` to be passed with [`-Wformat-security`](https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html), which means
when we test for it in configure it currently fails:
```bash
checking whether C++ compiler accepts -Wformat-security... no
...
configure:15907: checking whether C++ compiler accepts -Wformat-security
configure:15926: g++ -std=c++11 -c -g -O2 -Werror -Wformat-security conftest.cpp >&5
cc1plus: error: '-Wformat-security' ignored without '-Wformat' [-Werror=format-security]
cc1plus: all warnings being treated as errors
```
and never gets added to our CXX flags. Note that Clang does not have this requirement and the check is working correctly there.
The change in this PR is the simple fix, however we might want to consider using something like `-Wformat=2` in future, which in GCC is equivalent to `-Wformat -Wformat-nonliteral -Wformat-security -Wformat-y2k.` and similar [in Clang](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/DiagnosticsReference.html#wformat-2).

5d4999951ee32e333b511245862628e80f83b703 prevector: Avoid unnamed struct, which is a GNU extension (DesWurstes)
Pull request description:
Since we [started using](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/7165) the `ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4` macro we've been passing `[noext]` to indicate that we don't want to use an extended mode, i.e GNU extensions. Speaking to Cory he clarified that the intention was to "require only vanilla c++11 and turn _off_ extension support so they would fail to compile".
However in the codebase we are currently making use of some GNU extensions. We should either remove there usage, or at least amend our CXX compiler checks. I'd prefer the former.
#### anonymous structs
```bash
./prevector.h:153:9: warning: anonymous structs are a GNU extension [-Wgnu-anonymous-struct]
struct {
```
This is fixed in b849212c1e.
#### variadic macros
```bash
./undo.h:57:50: warning: must specify at least one argument for '...' parameter of variadic macro [-Wgnu-zero-variadic-macro-arguments]
::Unserialize(s, VARINT(nVersionDummy));
```
This is taken care of in #18087.
The `LOG_TIME_*` macros introduced in #16805 make use of a [GNU extension](https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Variadic-Macros.html).
```bash
In file included from validation.cpp:22:
./logging/timer.h:99:99: warning: token pasting of ',' and __VA_ARGS__ is a GNU extension [-Wgnu-zero-variadic-macro-arguments]

BCLog::Timer<std::chrono::seconds> PASTE2(logging_timer, __COUNTER__)(__func__, end_msg, ## __VA_ARGS__)
^
6 warnings generated.
```
This is fixed in 081a0ab64eb442bc85c4d4a4d3bc2c8e97ac2a6d and 612e8e138b97fc5ad2f38847300132a8fc423c3f.
#### prevention
To ensure that usage doesn't creep back in we can add [`-Wgnu`](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/DiagnosticsReference.html#wgnu) to our compile time flags, which will make Clang warn whenever it encounters GNU extensions.
This would close#14130.
Also related to #17230, where it's suggested we use a GNU extension, the `gnu::pure` attribute.
