This is the first part of a huge effort to rework the handling of dependencies.
To start, this change allows all supported platforms to build against a static
Qt. 5.2.1 and 5.3 have been successfully tested against osx64, win32, win64,
linux32, and linux64.
It also makes a small change to the windows config, to allow linking against
qt builds with or without built-in libjpeg/libpng/libpcre/libz.
The actual build processes to take advantage of these changes (for gitian and
pull-tester) are coming soon. Until then, this should be a no-op.
- the call to CloseSocket() is placed after the WSAGetLastError(), because
a CloseSocket() can trigger an error also, which we don't want for the
logging in this two cases
Simpler alternative to #4348.
The current setup with closesocket() is strange. It poses
as a compatibility wrapper but adds functionality.
Rename it and make it a documented utility function in netbase.
Code movement only, zero effect on the functionality.

96ff9d6 Can't log to debug log before chain params initialized (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
Block 295,000 seems to meet the criteria of a reasonable timestamp and
no strange transactions. 295,000 is the current block height in the
bootstrap.dat torrent provided by jgarzik.
Start the core thread only when needed for initialization
or shutdown.
Avoids a bit of overhead, and also avoids spamming two
log messages before logging is properly initialized.
Add a function `AreBaseParamsConfigured` and use this to check
before writing to the debug log. This avoids assertions when the
application happens to log too early, which happens in the GUI.
Messages logged before the base parameters are configured can be
shown using `-printtoconsole`.
The option is only effective for either wallet-less builds or if
-disablewallet is specified as well.

The regtest framework is local, so often there is no need to
discover our external IP. Setting -discover=0 in util.py works
around shutdown hang caused by GetExternalIP waiting in recv().
