There are no changes to behavior. Changes in this commit are all additions, and
are easiest to review using "git diff -U0 --word-diff-regex=." options.
Motivation for this change is to keep util functions with really generic names
like "Split" and "Join" out of the global namespace so it is easier to see
where these functions are defined, and so they don't interfere with function
overloading, especially since the util library is a dependency of the kernel
library and intended to be used with external code.
During shutdown, already queue events dispatched from the backend such
'numConnectionsChanged' and 'networkActiveChanged' could try to access
the clientModel object, which might not exist because we manually delete
it inside 'BitcoinApplication::requestShutdown()'.
Use interfaces::Node object instead.
There is a minor change in behavior in this commit, because the new code calls
InterruptRPC() and StopRPC() when previous code did not do this. But this
should be a good thing since it makes sense to interrupt RPC when the system is
shutting down, and it is better for the GUI shut down in a consistent way
regardless of how the shutdown is triggered.
51e4dc49f5 gui: Show error if unrecognized command line args are present (John Moffett)
Pull request description:
Fixes https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui/issues/741
Starting bitcoin-qt with non-hyphen ("-") arguments causes it to silently ignore any later valid options. For instance, invoking `bitcoin-qt -server=1 foo -regtest` on a fresh install will run `mainnet` instead of `regtest`.
This change makes the client exit with an error message if any such "loose" arguments are encountered. This mirrors how `bitcoind` handles it:
c6287faae4/src/bitcoind.cpp (L127-L132)
However, BIP-21 `bitcoin:` payment URIs are still allowed, but only if they're not followed by any additional options.

Starting bitcoin-qt with non-dash ("-") arguments causes it to
silently ignore any later valid options. This change makes the
client exit with an error message if any such "loose" arguments
are encountered.
However, allow BIP-21 'bitcoin:' URIs only if no other options
follow.
