- introduce DEFAULT_SCRIPTCHECK_THREADS in main.h
- only show values from -"MAX_HW_THREADS" up to 16 for -par, as it
  makes no sense to try to leave more "cores free" than the system
  supports anyway
- use the new constant in optionsdialog and remove defaults from
  .ui file

Currently only the name of the option is shown for GUI options
overridden by command line (or configuration file). This commit
adds the value of the options as well, which is useful for
troubleshooting.

A shift overflow was happening when using these to check against in init.cpp.
Fixes #3702.

- adds nDefaultDbCache, nMaxDbCache and nMinDbCache in txdb.h

- Add a wallet tab to options dialog
- Move fee setting to wallet tab
- Add new setting to set -nospendzeroconfchange from UI

contrib/devtools/fix-copyright-headers.py script to be able to perform this maintenance task with ease during the rest of the year, every year. Modifications to contrib/devtools/README.md to document what fix-copyright-headers.py does.

- as a proxy set via GUI can be overridden via -proxy, directly query the
  core to get active proxy
- give a warning, if active proxy is not SOCKS5 (needs to be SOCKS5 for
  the Qt networking code to work)
- also remove an obsolete connect() call from optionsdialog.cpp and a
  reference to Bitcoin-Qt (now just GUI)

There is not much in the GUI to be done without wallet,
though it's possible to change options, watch the sync process,
and use the debug console.

So embed the debug console in the main window.

- add new options for database cache and script verification threads
- add label which displays options that are overridden by command-line
  parameters
- proxy settings are not applied on-the-fly anymore and require a client
  restart (ApplyProxySettings() was removed and was not working very well
  anyway)
- re-work options reset and require a client shutdown (as it is much
  easier to do it this way without having to mess with what can be changed
  on-the-fly and what needs a restart anyway)
- options reset now writes default values for every single option
- when changing an option which requires a client restart display a 10
  second warning message in statusLabel (via a QTimer)
- when applying the changes via ok change that to a persistent message,
  which is displayed even after closing optionsdialog and re-open it, when
  no client restart was made
- remove dialog boxes used when changing language or proxy settings
- add setRestartRequired() and isRestartRequired() to OptionsModel and
  use the set function when updating options to signal OptionsDialog
  when a restart is needed
- resize optionsdialog a little and add some min sizes for certain GUI
  elements
- remove apply button from optionsdialog
- save and restore optionsdialog window position
- update nTransactionFee in QSettings with a set -paytxfee value when
  opening optionsdialog (I'm not sure about this yet, perhaps revert to
  not updating QSettings and just display current -paytxfee value in
  optionsdialog.)

Transaction fee is only used by the wallet.
No need for it to be in main.cpp.

- add missing license headers
- make compatible with Qt5
- enforce header cleanup style
- small code style cleanups
- rename Coin Control dialog into Coin Control Address Selection
- use default font for the windows labels (no monospace)

Use misc methods of avoiding unnecesary header includes.
Replace int typedefs with int##_t from stdint.h.
Replace PRI64[xdu] with PRI[xdu]64 from inttypes.h.
Normalize QT_VERSION ifs where possible.
Resolve some indirect dependencies as direct ones.
Remove extern declarations from .cpp files.

Closes #839

This required some code movement (what was CWalletTx::AcceptToMemoryPool
doing in main?), and adding a few explicit includes that used to be
implicit through init.h.

Add support for a Payment Protocol to Bitcoin-Qt.

Payment messages are protocol-buffer encoded and communicated over
http(s), so this adds a dependency on the Google protocol buffer
library, and requires Qt with OpenSSL support.

use std::string instead of psz for WalletFile

only allow wallets within $DATADIR

Use strWalletFile in salvage/recover

fix: remove unused variable pszWalletFile

move strWalletFile to init.h/init.cpp

avoid conversion of strWalletfile to c-string

- try to enforce the same style to all Qt related files
- remove unneeded includes from the files
- add missing Q_OBJECT, QT_BEGIN_NAMESPACE / QT_END_NAMESPACE
- prepares for a pull-req to include Qt5 compatibility

- a click on "Reset Options" sets all options to the default values by
  removing all stored settings (QSettings), loading the defaults and
  saving them as the new settings
- before the reset is executed the user is presented a confirmation dialog
- special casing was needed for StartAtStartup

As the only BDB database left is the wallet, and it is always
detached.

Also remove IsChainFile() predicate and related chainfile-specific
logic.

- don't rely on the QSettings for cases ProxyUse and ProxySocksVersion and
  query the real values via the GetProxy() call
- add a missing "succesful =" for case ProxyUse in ::setData()

- fix #1560 by properly locking proxy related data-structures
- update GetProxy() and introduce GetNameProxy() to be able to use a
  thread-safe local copy from proxyInfo and nameproxyInfo
- update usage of GetProxy() all over the source to match the new
  behaviour, as it now fills a full proxyType object
- rename GetNameProxy() into HaveNameProxy() to be more clear

- is more consistent and saves quite some lines of code

- cleanup optionsmodel before adding new proxy options
- place SOCKS version stuff below proxy port (IP, Port, SOCKS version)
- simplyfy some parts of the code (e.g. don't check IP and port, as this
  is done in optionsdialog anyway, remove unneeded {} in switch/case)
- small cosmetic changes in the header for better readability

- extend network options with a SOCKS version selection
- changing "Unit to show amounts in:" now also updates the unit used in the transaction fee box
- string updates
- link Apply button and OK button when enabling or disabling them
- use LookupNumeric() from netbase to verify proxy address (via an EventFilter)
- change proxy address field to QValidatedLineEdit and add visual feedback
- add a status label used for displaying a message for invalid proxy addresses
- allow usage of IPv6 address as proxy address
- added warning message when enabling / disabling SOCKS proxy

change strings to Bitcoin (uppercase), where it is used as a noun and update strings to use "Qt" (and not qt or QT) / update initialisation of notificator to use qApp->applicationName() instead of a static string

Add an option -detachdb (and entry in OptionDialog), without which no
lsn_reset is called on addr.dat and blkindex.dat. That means these
files cannot be moved to a new environment, but shutdown can be
significantly faster. The wallet file is always lsn_reset'ed.

-detachdb corresponds to the old behaviour, though it is off by
default now to speed up shutdowns.
