For all spelling lints, either fix them in place, or add them to the
ignore list.
I don't understand how these have gotten in here without ever
triggering the linter until now. I'm not sure if it's something about
my test environment or what. But fixing them can't hurt.
Consolidate to outputting the licensing info when we pass -version to a binary,
i.e bitcoind -version:

This adds a `-daemonwait` flag that does the same as `-daemon` except
it, from a user perspective, backgrounds the process only after
initialization is complete.
This can be useful when the process launching bitcoind wants to
guarantee that either the RPC server is running, or that initialization
failed, before continuing. The exit code indicates the initialization
result.
This replaces the use of the libc function `daemon()` by a custom
implementation which is inspired by the glibc implementation, but also
creates a pipe from the child to the parent process for communication.
An additional advantage of having our own `daemon()` implementation is
that no MACOS-specific pragmas are needed anymore to silence a
deprecation warning.
Replace the 200ms polling loop with a faster and more efficient waiting
operation.
This was tried a few times before, but given up every time because
solutions use a condition variable which is not safe for use in signals
as they need to be reentrant.
On UNIX-ish OSes, use a safe way: a pipe. When shutdown is requested
write a dummy byte to the pipe. Waiting for shutdown is a matter of a
blocking read from the pipe.
On Windows, there are no signals so using a condition variable is safe.
Adjusted version flag behavior in bitcoin-tx, bitcoin-wallet, and
bitcoind to match. Added functionality in gen-manpages.sh to warning when
attempting to generate man pages for binaries built from a dirty
branch.
This resulted in double-initializing the asset directory (and from multiple
places), so I added a `ClearGlobalAssetDir` method and called it from the
qt test setup.
