This commit effectively moves the definition of these constants
out of the chainparamsbase to their own file.
Using the ChainType enums provides better type safety compared to
passing around strings.
The commit is part of an ongoing effort to decouple the libbitcoinkernel
library from the ArgsManager and other functionality that should not be
part of the kernel library.
This is an extraction of ArgsManager related functions from util/system
into their own common file.
Config file related functions are moved to common/config.cpp.
The background of this commit is an ongoing effort to decouple the
libbitcoinkernel library from the ArgsManager. The ArgsManager belongs
into the common library, since the kernel library should not depend on
it. See doc/design/libraries.md for more information on this rationale.
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.

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.
