Pull request description:
After the merge of #18331, the packaged source tarball is created by `git archive`, but the binaries are built from another one which is made by `make dist`.
With this PR the only source tarball, created by `git archive`, is used both for binaries building and for packaging to users.
Close#16588.
Close#18547.
As a good side-effect, #18349 becomes redundant.
**Change in behavior**
The following variables 1b151e3ffc/configure.ac (L2-L6)
are no longer used for naming of directories and tarballs.
Instead of them the gitian descriptors use a git tag (if available) or a commit hash.

Pull request description:
This pull request attempts to resolve the `checkpoints -> validation -> checkpoints` circular dependency.
The circular dependency is resolved by moving the `CheckPoints::GetLastCheckpoint(const CCheckpointData& data)` function to `validation.cpp` where it used exclusively by the private function `ContextualCheckBlockHeader(const CBlockHeader& block, CValidationState& state, const CChainParams& params, const CBlockIndex* pindexPrev, int64_t nAdjustedTime)`.

Pull request description:
This is a second go at #15221, fixing new lints in:
W504 line break after binary operator
W605 invalid escape sequence
F841 local variable 'e' is assigned to but never used
This time around:
* One commit per rule, for easier review
* I went with the PEP-8 style of breaking before binary operators
* I looked into the raw regex newline issue, and found that raw strings with newlines embedded do work appropriately. E.g. run `re.match(r" \n ", " \n ")` to check this for yourself. `re.MULTILINE` exists to modify `^` and `$` in multiline scenarios, but all of these searches are per-line.

3f8776a1391c3978ed66144df15fd9bcb9edd35d Re-add dead code detection (flack)
Pull request description:
This re-adds unreachable code detection for Python based on `vulture`.
Effectively, this reverts f4beb4996d27f2cdaf4f0a63e7dc044bf17decce. The difference to the previous version is that this runs with the `--min-confidence 100` setting. From https://pypi.org/project/vulture/:
> Use `--min-confidence 100` to only report code that is guaranteed to be unused within the analyzed files.
So this should avoid the previous issues where static analysis had wrong positives due to the dynamic nature of Python code by only reporting things that are unambiguous (such as code after a `return` statement). As such, there is not suppressions list.
My motivation was mainly #21081 which would have been caught by this (as can be seen by the CI run failing). This is still marked as draft because #21081 is needed to get the linter to pass. Also, there is a second problem that this found (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/19509/files#r571454691). From what I can tell, this is a spurious type comment that could just be removed (or if that line has no side effects it could also be deleted altogether?). I could add a commit here to fix it, but I wanted to see if there is interest in having this linter again in the first place

f4beb4996d27f2cdaf4f0a63e7dc044bf17decce test: Remove python dead code linter (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
Pull request description:
Primarily I'd like to remove this because it is very imprecise, due to Python's dynamic nature, giving it a large list of false positives that need to be listed as exceptions. See for example #16906.
It's also a frequent source of complaints. I'm doubtful of the usefulness of checking for dead code in a linter in the first place.
Having some dead code in the test framework for a while is not a
disaster.

Pull request description:
Replacing boost functionality with C++11 stuff.
Motivated by #18227, but should stand alone. Changing from `boost::condition_var` to `std::condition_var` means `threadGroup.interrupt_all` isn't enough to interrupt `serviceQueue` anymore, so that means calling `stop()` before `join_all()` is needed. And the existing reverselock.h code doesn't work with sync.h's DebugLock code (because the reversed lock won't be removed from `g_lockstack` which then leads to incorrect potential deadlock warnings), so I've replaced that with a dedicated class and macro that's aware of our debug lock behaviour.

Pull request description:
* Use `ToLower(...)` instead of `std::tolower`. `std::tolower` is locale dependent.
* Use `IsDigit(...)` instead of `std::isdigit`. Some implementations (e.g. Microsoft in 1252 codepage) may classify single-byte characters other than `[0-9]` as digits.
* Update `KNOWN_VIOLATIONS`: Remove fixed violations.
* ~~Replace use of locale dependent Boost trim (`boost::trim`) with locale independent `TrimString`.~~
* Use` IsSpace(...)` instead of `boost::is_space`

Pull request description:
Digging into #15240 the lack of the proper logging has been discovered.
Fixed by this PR.
UPDATE (inspired by @laanwj's [comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/15278#discussion_r252641810)):
Not being able to create the PID file is fatal now.

**Notes for reviewers**
1. `CreatePidFile()` has been moved from `util/system.cpp` to `init.cpp` for the following reasons:
- to get the ability to use `InitError()`
- now `init.cpp` contains code of both creating PID file and removing it
2. Regarding 0.18 release process: this PR modifies 1 string and introduces 2 new ones.

Pull request description:
The following rpc features were deprecated in V0.17:
- `validateaddress` returning wallet information about an address
- `signrawtransaction`
This PR fully removes those features. It can be merged once V0.17 has been branched from master.

13782b8ba8 docs: add perf section to developer docs (James O'Beirne)
58180b5fd4 tests: add utility to easily profile node performance with perf (James O'Beirne)
Pull request description:
Adds a context manager to easily (and selectively) profile node performance during functional test execution using `perf`.
While writing some tests, I encountered some odd bitcoind slowness. I wrote up a utility (`TestNode.profile_with_perf`) that generates performance diagnostics for a node by running `perf` during the execution of a particular region of test code.
`perf` usage is detailed in the excellent (and sadly unmerged) https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/12649; all due props to @eklitzke.
### Example
```python
with node.profile_with_perf("large-msgs"):
for i in range(200):
node.p2p.send_message(some_large_msg)
node.p2p.sync_with_ping()
```
This generates a perf data file in the test node's datadir (`/tmp/testtxmpod0y/node0/node-0-TestName-large-msgs.perf.data`).
Running `perf report` generates nice output about where the node spent most of its time while running that part of the test:
```bash
$ perf report -i /tmp/testtxmpod0y/node0/node-0-TestName-large-msgs.perf.data --stdio \
| c++filt \
| less
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
