da6011826a Fix macOS launch-at-startup memory issue (Jonas Schnelli)
516437a1b7 Qt: remove macOS launch-at-startup option when compiled with > macOS 10.11 (Jonas Schnelli)
Pull request description:
The launch-at-startup API Bitcoin Core uses on macOS where removed in macOS 10.11 leading to a segmentation-fault due to the weak-linking when not actively compiled against SDK 10.11 (`-mmacosx-version-min=10.11`)
This PR removes the launch-at-startup feature on macOS when compiled with macOS min version > 10.11 (the default is always the macOS version you compile on).
**The depends built binaries (Gitian) are not affected since we are building with min macOS 10.10.**
Users self compiling on macOS > 10.11 can re-enable the feature by compiling with min version <= 10.11 (`CXXFLAGS="-mmacosx-version-min=10.11" CFLAGS="-mmacosx-version-min=10.11" ./configure`)
**Isn't there a new API from Apple?**
Yes, [there is](https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPSystemStartup/Chapters/CreatingLoginItems.html).
It will require to create a helper application which needs to be embedded in the .app folder (needs code signing as well). Developers willing to go down that rabbit hole are welcome.
Fixes#15142

Contains Designer UI files. They are created with Qt Creator, but can be edited using any text editor.
locale
Contains translations. They are periodically updated. The process is described here.
res
Resources such as the icon.
test
Tests.
bitcoingui.(h/cpp)
Represents the main window of the Bitcoin UI.
*model.(h/cpp)
The model. When it has a corresponding controller, it generally inherits from QAbstractTableModel. Models that are used by controllers as helpers inherit from other Qt classes like QValidator.
ClientModel is used by the main application bitcoingui and several models like peertablemodel.
*page.(h/cpp)
A controller. :NAMEpage.cpp generally includes :NAMEmodel.h and forms/:NAME.page.ui with a similar :NAME.
*dialog.(h/cpp)
Various dialogs, e.g. to open a URL. Inherit from QDialog.
paymentserver.(h/cpp)
Used to process BIP21 and BIP70 (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11622) payment URI / requests. Also handles URI based application switching (e.g. when following a bitcoin:... link from a browser).
walletview.(h/cpp)
Represents the view to a single wallet.
Other .h/cpp files
UI elements like BitcoinAmountField, which inherit from QWidget.
bitcoinstrings.cpp: automatically generated
bitcoinunits.(h/cpp): BTC / mBTC / etc handling
callback.h
guiconstants.h: UI colors, app name, etc
guiutil.h: several helper functions
macdockiconhandler.(h/mm): macOS dock icon handler
macnotificationhandler.(h/mm): display notifications in macOS
