Pull request description:

  Prerequisite for external signer support in #16546. Big picture overview in [this gist](https://gist.github.com/Sjors/29d06728c685e6182828c1ce9b74483d).

  This adds a new dependency [boost process](https://github.com/boostorg/process/tree/boost-1.64.0). This is part of Boost since 1.64 which is part of `depends`. Because the minimum Boost version is 1.47, this functionality is skipped for older versions of Boost.

  Use `./configure --with-boost-process` to opt in, which checks for the presence of Boost::Process.

  We add `UniValue runCommandParseJSON(const std::string& strCommand)` to `system.{h,cpp}` which calls an arbitrary command and processes the JSON returned by it. This is currently only called by the test suite.

  ~For testing purposes this adds a new regtest-only RPC method `runcommand`, as well as `test/mocks/command.py` used by functional tests.~ (this is no longer the case)

  TODO:
  - [ ] review boost process in #15440

    re-ACK 31cf68a3ad1f0a5537c8419e2912b55fbfb88fa0, only rebased (verified with `git range-diff`) and removed an unintentional tab character since the [previous](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/15382#pullrequestreview-458371035) review.
  meshcollider:
    Very light utACK 31cf68a3ad1f0a5537c8419e2912b55fbfb88fa0, although I am not very confident with build stuff.
  promag:
    Code review ACK 31cf68a3ad1f0a5537c8419e2912b55fbfb88fa0, don't mind the nit.
  ryanofsky:
    Code review ACK 31cf68a3ad1f0a5537c8419e2912b55fbfb88fa0. I left some comments below that could be ignored or followed up later. The current change is clean and comprehensive.

Further information about Dash Core is available in the doc folder.

What is Dash?

Dash is an experimental digital currency that enables instant, private payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Dash uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Dash Core is the name of the open source software which enables the use of this currency.

For more information read the original Dash whitepaper.

License

Dash Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.

Development Process

The master branch is meant to be stable. Development is normally done in separate branches. Tags are created to indicate new official, stable release versions of Dash Core.

The develop branch is regularly built (see doc/build-*.md for instructions) and tested, but is not guaranteed to be completely stable.

The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.

Testing

Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.

Automated Testing

Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run (assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.

There are also regression and integration tests, written in Python. These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py

The Travis CI system makes sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.

Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing

Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.

Translations

Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Dash Core's Transifex page.

Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.

Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
