as some of these tests are designed to be heavily contested to trigger race
conditions or other issues. This created very large log files when run with
DEBUG_LOCKCONTENTION defined (up to v22) or with lock logging enabled by default
in current master.
Examples running the following command:
./src/test/test_bitcoin -t checkqueue_tests/test_CheckQueue_Correct_Random -- DEBUG_LOG_OUT > testlog.txt

Includes a memory leak in the checkqueue unit test (but not in
the actual code). WE really need to switch our checkqueue to use
std::unique_pointer rather than bare pointers. But this would be
invasive enough that I want to do it in a followup PR.
Also pretty-much disable the validation_flush_cache unit test.
This is a stupid and irritating test which tries to unit-test
exact memory usage of std containers. It already has at least
one "remove wrong assumptions" update upstream and after many
tries I was unable to change all the magic numbers in a way
that'd consistently pass CI for Elements.
Also adds a couple ubsan suppressions about perfectly-legitimate
conversions of integer types.

Pull request description:
This PR:
- gets rid of `boost::thread_group` in the `CCheckQueue` class
- allows thread safety annotation usage in the `CCheckQueue` class
- is alternative to #14464 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18710#issuecomment-616618525, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18710#issuecomment-617291612)
Also, with this PR (I hope) it could be easier to resurrect a bunch of brilliant ideas from #9938.
