8e55981ef834490c438436719f95cbaf888c4914 refactor: replace Boost shared_mutex with std shared_mutex in cuckoocache tests (fanquake)
Pull request description:
This replaces `boost::shared_mutex` and `boost::unique_lock` with [`std::shared_mutex`](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/thread/shared_mutex) & [`std::unique_lock`](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/thread/unique_lock).
Even though [some concerns were raised](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16684#issuecomment-726214696) in #16684 with regard to `std::shared_mutex` being unsafe to use across some glibc versions, I still think this change is an improvement. As I mentioned in #21022, I also think trying to restrict standard library feature usage based on bugs in glibc is not only hard to do, but it's not currently clear exactly how we do that in practice (does it also extend to patching out use in our dependencies, should we be implementing more runtime checks for features we are using, when do we consider an affected glibc "old enough" not to worry about? etc). If you take a look through the [glibc bug tracker](https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/describecomponents.cgi?product=glibc) you'll no doubt find plenty of (active) bug reports for standard library code we already using. Obviously not to say we shouldn't try and avoid buggy code where possible.
Two other points:
[Cory mentioned in #21022](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21022#issuecomment-769274179):
> It also seems reasonable to me to worry that boost hits the same underlying glibc bug, and we've just not happened to trigger the right conditions yet.
Moving away from Boost to the standard library also removes the potential for differences related to Boosts configuration. Boost has multiple versions of `shared_mutex`, and what you end up using, and what it's backed by depends on:
* The version of Boost.
* The platform you're building for.
* Which version of `BOOST_THREAD_VERSION` is defined: (2,3,4 or 5) default=2. (see [here](https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_70_0/doc/html/thread/build.html#thread.build.configuration) for some of the differences).
* Is `BOOST_THREAD_V2_SHARED_MUTEX` defined? (not by default). If so, you might get the ["less performant, but more robust"](https://github.com/boostorg/thread/issues/230#issuecomment-475937761) version of `shared_mutex`.
A lot of these factors are eliminated by our use of depends, but users will have varying configurations. It's also not inconceivable to think that a distro, or some package manager might start defining something like `BOOST_THREAD_VERSION=3`. Boost tried to change the default from 2 to 3 at one point.
With this change, we no longer use Boost Thread, so this PR also removes it from depends, the build system, CI etc.

747cd17404832604c50d03d58e11ba816bb229f7 build: no-longer fail default configure if BDB isn't available (fanquake)
Pull request description:
Inline with moving to descriptor (sqlite) wallets by default for 0.23,
this adapts the build system so that a default `./configure` invocation
no-longer fails if BDB isn't present. Currently, if configure is run
with no options, and no BDB is present, we'll fail with:
```bash
checking for Berkeley DB C++ headers... no
configure: error: libdb_cxx headers missing, Bitcoin Core requires this library for BDB wallet support (--without-bdb to disable BDB wallet support)
```
If descriptor wallets are to be the default, this behaviour no longer
makes sense, as a builder should be able to configure and build, to use
a wallet, without BDB installed, and without passing additional
arguments, i.e `--without-bdb` or `--with-incompatible-bdb`, to
configure.
With this change, running configure will no-longer fail, but will
instead print:
```bash
checking for Berkeley DB C++ headers... no
configure: WARNING: libdb_cxx headers missing
configure: WARNING: Bitcoin Core requires this library for BDB (legacy) wallet support
configure: WARNING: Passing --without-bdb will suppress this warning
checking for sqlite3 >= 3.7.17... yes
checking whether to build wallet with support for sqlite... yes

Although there is an existing `test/lint/lint-whitespace.sh` linter, it only prevents new errors from being introduced. This commit removes all existing whitespace errors from Core markdown files (skips `src/crypto/ctaes/`, `leveldb/`, and `doc/release-notes/`), `bitcoin.conf`, and `Info.plist.in`.
Further formatting could be done on the markdown documents, but seeing as there several coexisting styles that break a few `markdownlint` rules, a first step would be to define and add a linter to Travis. For now, the small fix is made.

cf0681133ae7301ead7091eaee55c945da5cdfcc build: disable D-Bus on Android by default (Igor Cota)
Pull request description:
I've been trying to build for Android on different OSes/Gitian with varying success. Build system is quite the beast and sometimes it doesn't get it right. To make sure it does these three little tweaks make the Android build more robust:
- disable D-Bus (Android doesn't support it and has its own way to trigger notifications)
- don't flag `-lpthread` when linking Boost, [Bionic has built-in support](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30801752/android-ndk-and-pthread)
- ~~add `-static-libstdc++` to linker flags. This avoids having to bundle `libc++_shared` with CLI apps, still necessary with `bitcoin-qt` though (thanks Sjors)~~
I think these are small and fairly straightforward so I put them all into this one PR.

This PR makes `bitcoin_qt.m4` to use `pkg-config` for all hosts and removes non-pkg-config paths from it. This is a step towards the idea which was clear [stated](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8314#issue-76644643) by Cory Fields:
> I believe the consensus is to treat Windows like the others and require pkg-config across the board. We can drop all of the non-pkg-config paths, and simply AC_REQUIRE(PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG)
There are two unsolved problems with this PR. If depends is built with `DEBUG=1` the `configure` script fails to pickup Qt:
- for macOS host (similar to, but not the same as #16391)
- for Windows host (regression)
The fix is ~on its way~ submitted in #18298 (as a followup).
Also this PR picks some small improvements from #17820.

Pull request description:
Implements #8263.
Qt4.x has been EOL since 2015, and at least Gentoo has, or is going to drop support for it. I wouldn't be surprised if other Linux distributions follow.
This removes Qt4 detection from the build system, as well as removes all Qt4 fallbacks from the code. Turns out there's more than I expected: this is going to make maintenance of the GUI code, as well as adding new features significantly easier.
(I know there's still some references left to qt4 in RPM and Debian build script, but I don't have the knowledge how to fix them)
