bbcba09cd5 build: remove check for __declspec(dllexport) (fanquake)
37c9abdc43 build: remove check for __attribute__((visibility.. (fanquake)
Pull request description:
These are unused (since libbitcoinconsensus / #29648), and the current CMake port doesn't quite match behaviour, such that there's no real point in doing the check. So rather than port anything, just remove it. If these are needed again in future (i.e for kernel or similar), they can be revisted, and it might be the case that build-system level checks will not be wanted.

d440f13db0 crypto: Guard code with `ENABLE_SSE41` macro (Hennadii Stepanov)
6ec1ca7c85 build: Fix test for SSE4.1 intrinsics (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
1. Fix the test for SSE4.1 intrinsics during build system configuration, which currently can be false positive, for example, when `CXXFLAGS="-mno-sse4.1"` provided.
This PR fixes the test by adding the `_mm_blend_epi16` SSE4.1 function used in our codebase.
2. Guard `sha_x86_shani.cpp` code with `ENABLE_SSE41` macro as it uses the `_mm_blend_epi16` function from
the SSE4.1 instruction set.
It is possible that SHA-NI is enabled even when SSE4.1 is disabled, which causes compile errors in the master branch.
Closes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/28864.

Pull request description:
This reduces the size of the binary by ~1% when building with `--enable-reduce-exports`.
> -no_exported_symbols
> Useful for main executable that don't have plugins and thus need no symbol exports.
Can be tested with `dyld_info -exports src/bitcoind`. The only exported symbol should be `__mh_execute_header`.

c0b5ea5901 build: Drop redundant `sys/sysctl.h` header check (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
The `AC_CHECK_HEADERS` macro defines `HAVE_SYS_SYSCTL_H` if the `sys/sysctl.h` header is found. However, in the source code, this header is guarded by `HAVE_SYSCTL` and `HAVE_SYSCTL_ARND` macros, which have their own checks. Since `HAVE_SYS_SYSCTL_H` is not used, we can skip the `AC_CHECK_HEADERS(... sys/sysctl.h ...)` check.

Without this change there are errors from boost like:

There do not seem to be errors from capnproto currently, but add a suppression
for it, too, to be consistent with other libraries.
fa780e1c25 build: Remove --enable-gprof (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
It is unclear what benefit this option has, given that:
* `gprof` requires re-compilation (`perf` and other tools can instead be used on existing executables)
* `gprof` requires hardening to be disabled
* `gprof` doesn't work with `clang`
* `perf` is documented in the dev-notes, and test notes, and embedded into the functional test framework; `gprof` isn't
* Anyone really wanting to use it could pass the required flags to `./configure`
* I couldn't find any mention of the use of `gprof` in the discussions in this repo, apart from the initial pull request adding it (cfaac2a60f)
* Keeping it means that it needs to be maintained and ported to CMake
Fix all issues by removing it.

Belt-and suspenders after #30234. Self-assignment should be safe _and_
discouraged.
We used to opt out of this warning because something deep in our
serialization/byteswapping code could self-assign, but that doesn't appear to
be the case anymore.
This supports lcov 2.x in the sense that we are no-longer hardcoding
version specific options, and instead will use the `LCOV_OPTS` variable
(which is the more correct/flexible thing to do in any case). It's also
quite likely that devs are already having to pass extra options to lcov
2.x, given it's more stringent in terms of coverage generation and error
checking. See this thread for an example:
https://github.com/linux-test-project/lcov/issues/238.
Added an example to the developer notes.
Tested on one machine (LCOV 2.0, gcc 13.2) with:
```bash
./autogen.sh

5deb0b024e build, test, doc: Temporarily remove Android-related stuff (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
Previously, our Android builds were geared towards generating APKs, which relied on Qt. However, after migrating to C++20, compiling for Android became unfeasible due to Qt 5.15's compatibility limitations with NDK only up to r25, which includes an outdated embedded libc++ (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/29360).
All removed stuff will be reinstated after migrating the build system to CMake and upgrading Qt to version 6.x.
This PR makes possible a clean migration to the CMake-based build system as it removes code, which is not used at this moment.

ca3d945dc6 Squashed 'src/secp256k1/' changes from d8311688bd..06bff6dec8 (fanquake)
Pull request description:
This includes changes from the 0.5.0 release: https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/releases/tag/v0.5.0
> New function secp256k1_ec_pubkey_sort that sorts public keys using lexicographic (of compressed serialization) order.
> The implementation of the point multiplication algorithm used for signing and public key generation was changed, resulting in improved performance for those operations.
> The related configure option --ecmult-gen-precision was replaced with --ecmult-gen-kb (ECMULT_GEN_KB for CMake).
> This changes the supported precomputed table sizes for these operations. The new supported sizes are 2 KiB, 22 KiB, or 86 KiB (while the old supported sizes were 32 KiB, 64 KiB, or 512 KiB).

Store the thread name in a `thread_local` variable of type `char[]`
instead of `std::string`. This avoids calling the destructor when
the thread exits. This is a workaround for
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=278701
For type-safety, return `std::string` from
`util::ThreadGetInternalName()` instead of `char[]`.
As a side effect of this change, we no longer store a reference
to a `thread_local` variable in `CLockLocation`. This was
dangerous because if the thread quits while the reference still
exists (in the global variable `lock_data`, see inside `GetLockData()`)
then the reference will become dangling.
Similar to libtool, (llvm-)otool only exists with a version suffix
on some systems (Ubuntu), which makes it annoying to use/find. Avoid
this, by switching to objdump. Which is a drop-in replacement.
This is related to #21778, and the switchover to using vanilla LLVM for
macOS.
Previously, our Android builds were geared towards generating APKs,
which relied on Qt. However, after migrating to C++20, compiling for

All removed stuff will be reinstated after migrating the build system to
CMake and upgrading Qt to version 6.x."
Now that CXXFLAGS are back in user control, I don't think there's a
reason to no-longer use our warning flags when CXXFLAGS has been
overriden (this includes when building from depends).
Anyone can suppress warnings from third-party code by
passing the relevant `-Wno-` options in CXXFLAGS.
Fixes: #18092.

Fixes#29654 (as a side-effect)
Removing dependencies is a general goal of the project and the xz backdoor has been an additional wake up call recently. Libevent shows many of the same symptoms, few maintainers and slow releases. While libevent can not be removed completely over night we should start removing it’s usage where it's possible, ideally with the end goal to removing it completely.
This is a pretty easy win in that direction. The [`evhttp_uridecode` function from libevent](e0a4574ba2/http.c (L3542)) we were using in `urlDecode` could be easily emulated in fewer LOC. This also ports the [applicable test vectors over from libevent](https://github.com/libevent/libevent/blob/master/test/regress_http.c#L3430).

The `subprocess.hpp` header has been sourced from the [upstream repo](https://github.com/arun11299/cpp-subprocess) with the only modification being the removal of convenience functions, which are not utilized in our codebase.
