5ce7cb9 [net] De-duplicate connection eviction logic (Thomas Snider)
Pull request description:
While reviewing the safeguards against deliberate node isolation on the network by malicious actors, I found a good de-duplication candidate.
I think this form is much more legible (the type of `cutoffs` notwithstanding). ReverseCompareNodeTimeConnected is not included in the list since the cutoff size is a function of the remaining number of nodes in the candidate eviction set.

24a0bdd bench: prefer a steady clock if the resolution is no worse (Cory Fields)
c515d26 bench: switch to std::chrono for time measurements (Cory Fields)
Pull request description:
gettimeofday has portability issues, see for example #11558.
Regardless of large-scale clock refactors in the future, I think it's fine for bench to just use std::chrono itself.
Note that this may slightly improve bench accuracy and changes the display from tiny floats to nanosecond counts instead.

std::chrono removes portability issues.
Rather than storing doubles, store the untouched time_points. Then
convert to nanoseconds for display. This allows for maximum precision, while
keeping results comparable between differing hardware/operating systems.
Also, display full nanosecond counts rather than sub-second floats.

18e071841 [consensus] Pin P2SH activation to block 173805 on mainnet (John Newbery)
526023aa7 Improve handling of BIP9Deployment limits (Anthony Towns)
Pull request description:
Most tests shouldn't have to deal with the now-historical SegWit activation transition (and other deployments, but SegWit is certainly the hardest one to accomodate).
This PR makes a versionbits starttime of -1 equal to "always active", and enables it by default for SegWit on regtest. Individual tests can override this by using the existing `-vbparams` option.
A few unit tests and functional tests are adapted to indeed override vbparams, as they specifically test the transition.
This is in preparation for wallet SegWit support, but I thought having earlier eyes on it would be useful.

ff35de8 [ui] Add toggle for unblinding password fields (Thomas Snider)
Pull request description:
Proposed change for adding the ability to toggle password visibility in the password dialog. This is similar to functionality in most password managers and is specifically added with the use case of password managers in mind - the password in that case is likely pasted twice into both the new password and confirm password fields.
If this is a welcome change, I am open to suggestions on rearranging the layout.

As pointed out in #10828, failing with "lcov not found" when we've been passed --disable-lcov doesn't make sense. Master currently behaves like this (where lcov isn't available):
```
./configure --disable-lcov
checking for pkg-config... /usr/local/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
configure: error: "lcov testing requested but lcov not found"

This is an alternative approach to #11534. Rather than disconnect an outbound peer when our tip looks stale, instead try to connect to an additional outbound peer.
Periodically, check to see if we have more outbound peers than we target (ie if any extra peers are in use), and if so, disconnect the one that least recently announced a new block (breaking ties by choosing the newest peer that we connected to).

720d9e8fa [Wallet] always show help-line of wallet encryption calls (Jonas Schnelli)
Pull request description:
We do currently show/hide the wallet encryption RPC calls from the help if the current wallet.
In case of an encrypted wallet, `encryptwallet` is hidden and `walletpassphrasechange`, `walletpassphrasechange` and `walletlock` do appear in the help.
This is no longer ideal in case of multiwallet due to the fact that one may want help infos in order to target a specific wallet.
IMO its preferable to have a static help screen (show everything always). The currently show/hidden calls do handle the possible invalid encryption-state fine.

If our tip hasn't updated in a while, that may be because our peers are
not relaying blocks to us that we would consider valid. Allow connection
to an additional outbound peer in that circumstance.
Also, periodically check to see if we are exceeding our target number of
outbound peers, and disconnect the one which has least recently
announced a new block to us (choosing the newest such peer in the case
of tie).

Pull request description:
@sdaftuar pointed out that the version in #11487 was somewhat DoS-able as someone could feed you a valid chain that forked off the the last checkpoint block and force you to do lots of work just walking backwards across blocks for each new block they gave you. We came up with a few proposals but settled on the one implemented here as likely the simplest without obvious DoS issues. It uses our existing on-load mapBlockIndex walk to make sure everything that descends from an invalid block is marked as such, and then simply caches blocks which we attempted to connect but which were found to be invalid. To avoid DoS issues during IBD, this will need to depend on #11458.
Includes tests from #11487.

b296bf1 Init: Remove redundant exit(EXIT_FAILURE) instances and replace with return false (donaloconnor)
Pull request description:
While reviewing the bitcoin code I noticed that there are a few exit(EXIT_FAILURE) at various places in the AppInit function.
This function returns to main() which will return/exit with EXIT_FAILURE so returning false instead of an explicit exit(EXIT_FAILURE) seems to be cleaner.
This PR attempts to make things a bit more consistent.
There is a subtle difference between exit() and return from main in that the exit() will not clean up any local vars but I don't think this makes a difference in this case. Using exit() might even lead to bugs in the future where the dtor of local objects are expected to be called.
