Merge #16802: scripts: In linearize, search for next position of magic bytes rather than fail 
3284e6c09a84e9557ec72723ad636053d3ef7122 scripts: search for next position of magic bytes rather than fail (Tim Akinbo)

Pull request description:

  When using the `linearize-data.py` contrib script to export block data, there are edge cases where the script fails with an `Invalid magic: 00000000` error. This error occurs due to the presence of padding bytes that occasionally appears between consecutive blocks in the block data file.

  There's an ongoing conversation about this in #14986. sipa also admitted that it is a bug in #5028. Fortunately, this is not an issue in bitcoin core as it handles this type of situation gracefully and so no fix in bitcoin core is required.

  This PR is an improvement on how the script handles these "invalid magic bytes". Rather than failing, this patch allows the script to search for the next occurrence of the magic bytes and then starts reading the block from there.

Specific tools for developers working on this repository. Contains the script github-merge.py for merging GitHub pull requests securely and signing them using GPG.

Verify-Commits

Tool to verify that every merge commit was signed by a developer using the above github-merge.py script.

Linearize

Construct a linear, no-fork, best version of the blockchain.

Qos

A Linux bash script that will set up traffic control (tc) to limit the outgoing bandwidth for connections to the Dash network. This means one can have an always-on dashd instance running, and another local dashd/dash-qt instance which connects to this node and receives blocks from it.

Seeds

Utility to generate the pnSeed[] array that is compiled into the client.

Build Tools and Keys

Debian

Contains files used to package dashd/dash-qt for Debian-based Linux systems. If you compile dashd/dash-qt yourself, there are some useful files here.
