This commit attempts to clarify and correct the `-blocksdir` argument
description and default value. `-blocksdir` does not refer to the full
path to the actual `blocks` directory, but rather the root/parent
directory which contains the `blocks` directory. Accordingly, the
default value is `<datadir>` and not `<datadir>/blocks`. It also
attempts to clarify that only the `.dat` files containing block data are
impacted by `-blocksdir`, not the index files.
e4a0c3547e Improve blocksdir functional test. (Hennadii Stepanov)
c3f1821ac7 Make blockdir always net specific (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
The blocks directory is net specific by definition.
Also this prevents the side effect of calling `GetBlocksDir(false)` in the non-mainnet environment.
Currently a new node creates an unused `blocks\` directory in the root of the data directory when `-testnet` or `-regtest` is specified.

645e905c32 doc: Add release notes for unloadwallet change to synchronous call (João Barbosa)
c37851de57 rpc: Make unloadwallet wait for complete wallet unload (João Barbosa)
Pull request description:
Currently the `unloadwallet` RPC is asynchronous, it only signals the intent to unload the wallet and then returns the response to the client. The actual unload can happen later and the client has no way to be notified of that.
This PR makes the `unloadwallet` RPC synchronous, meaning that it blocks until the wallet is fully unloaded.
Replaces #14919, fixes#14917.

cb53b825c2 scripted-diff: Replace boost::bind with std::bind (Chun Kuan Lee)
2196c51821 refactor: Use boost::scoped_connection in signal/slot, also prefer range-based loop instead of std::transform (Chun Kuan Lee)
Pull request description:
Replace boost::bind with std::bind
- In `src/rpc/server.cpp`, replace `std::transform` with simple loop.
- In `src/validation.cpp`, store the `boost::signals2::connection` object and use it to disconnect.
- In `src/validationinterface.cpp`, use 2 map to store the `boost::signals2::scoped_connection` object.

dcb70b1522 Indicate -rpcauth option password hashing alg (Carl Dong)
Pull request description:
By indicating the password hashing algorithm, users of bitcoin distributions without the script in `share/rpcauth` and users who don't want to rely on said script can use alternative means to generate the password hash.
Question for reviewers: perhaps we should also indicate that it is specifically a HMAC-SHA-256 of the _**UTF-8**_ encoding of their password?

48b37db50 make peertimeout a debug argument, remove error message translation (Zain Iqbal Allarakhia)
8042bbfbf p2p: allow p2ptimeout to be configurable, speed up slow test (Zain Iqbal Allarakhia)
Pull request description:
**Summary:**
1. _Primary_: Adds a `debug_only=true` flag for peertimeout, defaults to 60 sec., the current hard-coded setting.
2. _Secondary_: Drastically speeds up `p2p_timeout.py` test.
3. _Secondary_: Tests that the correct code path is being tested by adding log assertions to the test.
**Rationale:**
- P2P timeout was hard-coded: make it explicitly specified and configurable, instead of a magic number.
- Addresses #13518; `p2p_timeout.py` takes 4 sec. to run instead of 61 sec.
- Makes `p2p_timeout.py` more explicit. Previously, we relied on a comment to inform us of the timeout amount being tested. Now it is specified directly in the test via passing in the new arg; `-peertimeout=3`.
- Opens us up to testing more P2P scenarios; oftentimes slow tests are the reason we don't test.

In the config file, sections are specified by square bracket pair "[]"$,
or included in the option name itself which separated by a period"(.)".
Typicaly, [testnet] is not a correct section name and specified options
in that section are ignored but user cannot recognize what is happen.
So, add some log/stderr-warning messages if unrecognized section names
are present in the config file after checking section only args.
Route calls during node initialization and shutdown that would happen between a
node process and wallet processes through the serializable `Chain::Client`
interface, rather than `WalletInitInterface` which is now simpler and only
deals with early initialization and parameter interaction.
This commit mostly does not change behavior. The only change is that the
"Wallet disabled!" and "No wallet support compiled in!" messages are now logged
earlier during startup.
This commit does not change behavior. All it does is pass new function
parameters.
It is easiest to review this change with:

3ccfa34b32 convert C-style (void) parameter lists to C++ style () (Arvid Norberg)
Pull request description:
In C, an empty parameter list, `()`, means the function takes any arguments, and `(void)` means the function does not take any parameters.
In C++, an empty parameter list means the function does not take any parameters.
So, C++ still supports `(void)` parameter lists with the same semantics, why change to `()`?
1. removing the redundant `void` improves signal-to-noise ratio of the code
2. using `(void)` exposes a rare inconsistency in that a template taking a template `(T)` parameter list, cannot be instantiated with `T=void`
