529b866 Test datadir in conf file exists (MeshCollider)
Pull request description:
Provoked by Nick ODell's discovery here: https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/64189/when-running-bitcoind-i-keep-getting-boostfilesystemspace-operation-not-p/64210#64210
If a custom data directory is specified using `-datadir` argument, its existence is checked before the conf file is loaded. But if the conf file then specifies a different non-existent `datadir`, that isn't tested, and results in esoteric errors like:
EXCEPTION: N5boost10filesystem16filesystem_errorE
boost::filesystem::space: Operation not permitted
This just adds a check for the datadir existence at the end of `ReadConfigFile()`

Pull request description:
[Reviewer hint: use [?w=1](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10275/files?w=1) to avoid seeing a bunch of indentation changes.]
Presuming a user knows the block hash of the block containing a given transaction, this PR allows them to fetch the raw transaction, even without `-txindex`. It also enables support for getting transactions that are in orphaned blocks.
Note that supplying a block hash will override mempool and txindex support in `GetTransaction`. The rationale behind this is that a transaction may be in multiple places (orphaned blocks) and if the user supplies an explicit block hash it should be adhered to.
```Bash
$ # a41.. is a tx inside an orphan block ..3c6f.. -- first try getting it normally
$ ./bitcoin-cli getrawtransaction a41e66ee1341aa9fb9475b98cfdc1fe1261faa56c0a49254f33065ec90f7cd79 1
error code: -5
error message:
No such mempool transaction. Use -txindex to enable blockchain transaction queries. Use gettransaction for wallet transactions.

cf5f432 Add `-debuglogfile` option (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
Pull request description:
This patch adds an option to configure the name and/or directory of the debug log file.
The user can specify either a relative path, in which case the path is relative to the (network specific) data directory. They can also specify an absolute path to put the log anywhere else in the file system.
Alternative to #11741 that gets rid of the concept of a "log directory" by specifying the path for the specific kind of log, the debug log. Which happens to be the only kind of log we have at this point*, but a hypothetical new kind of log (say, an audit log) would get a new option. This has more flexibility than specifying a directory which has to contain all of them.
\* excluding `db.log` which is internally generated by the wallet database library, but that one moves along with `-walletdir`.

b4058ed Fix code constness in CBlockIndex::GetAncestor() overloads (Dan Raviv)
Pull request description:
Make the non-const overload of `CBlockIndex::GetAncestor()` reuse the const overload implementation instead of the other way around. This way, the constness of the const overload implementation is guaranteed. The other way around, it was possible to implement the non-const overload in a way which mutates the object, and since that implementation would be called even for const objects (due to the reuse), we would get undefined behavior.

9b80fc1 Prefix leveldb debug logging (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
Pull request description:
Add leveldb: prefix to leveldb debug logging lines.
leveldb debug messages come in various scary flavors such as:
2017-11-30 08:26:31 leveldb: Recovering log #26
2017-11-30 08:26:31 leveldb: Level-0 table #28: started
2017-11-30 08:26:31 leveldb: Level-0 table #28: 597 bytes OK
2017-11-30 08:26:31 leveldb: Delete type=0 #26
2017-11-30 08:26:31 leveldb: Delete type=3 #24
so it's reasonably important to mark them as coming from leveldb internals and not from consensus validation wallet or such.
This is consistent with the `libevent:` prefix for libevent messages.
(this only affects `-debug=leveldb` or `-debug=1` otherwise you won't see them in the first place)

2. Add a descrption about the evaluation order of `<include>` and

3. Add a description about the available logging category `"all"`
which is not explained.
4. Add `"optional"` to the help text of `<include>` and `<exclude>`.
5. Add missing new lines before `"Argument:"`.
6. `"0"`,`"1"` are allowed in both array of `<include>` and `<exclude>`.
`"0"` is **ignored** and `"1"` is treated **same as** `"all"`.
It is confusing, so forbid them.
7. It always returns all logging categories with status.
Fix the help text to match this behavior.

blockchain.cpp has low unit test coverage. This commit is intended
to start improving its code coverage to reasonable levels. One or more
follow up commits will complete the task that this commit is starting
(though the usefulness of this commit is not dependent upon later
commits).
Note that these tests were not written based upon a specification of how
GetDifficulty *should* work, but rather how it actually *does* work. As
a result, if there are any bugs in the current GetDifficulty
implementation, these unit tests serve to lock them in rather than
expose them.
-- Why has blockchain.cpp been modified if this is a unit testing change?
Since the existing GetDifficulty function relies on a global variable,
chainActive, it was not suitable for unit testing purposes. Both the
existing GetDifficulty function and the unit tests now call through to
a new, more modular version of GetDifficulty that can work on any chain,
not just chainActive.
-- Why does blockchain_tests.cpp directly include blockchain.cpp instead
of blockchain.h?
While the new GetDifficulty function's signature is arguably better than
the old one's, it still isn't great, and doesn't seem to warrant inclusion
as part of the blockchain.h API, especially since only test code is
directly using it. If a better way of exposing the new GetDifficulty
function to unit tests exists, please mention it and the commit will be
updated accordingly.
-- Why is the test fixture named blockchain_difficulty_tests rather than
blockchain_tests?
The Bitcoin Core policy for naming unit test files is to match the the
file under test ("blockchain" becomes "blockchain_tests"). While this
commit complies with that, blockchain.cpp is a massive file, such that
having all of the unit tests in one file will tend towards disorder.
Since there will be a lot more tests added to this file, the intention
is to divide up different types of tests into different test fixtures
within the same file.

ConnectBlock() relies on validation that happens in ContextualCheckBlock() and
ContextualCheckBlockHeader(). This has implications for implementing consensus
changes and handling software upgrade to ensure that nodes upgrading their
software end up enforcing all the consensus rules.
A) The changes in behavior are as follows:
1. Introduce logging category "none" as alias of "0" for
both RPC-logging and bitcoind "-debug" parameter.
2. Same as "0" is given to argument of "-debug",
if "none" or "0" is given to <include>, all other given logging
categories are ignored. The same is true for <exclude>.
(Before this PR, "0" was accepted but just be ignored itself.)
B) The changes in the help text are as follows:
1. Add a descrption about the evaluation order of <include> and
<exclude> to clarify how debug loggig categories to be set.
2. Delete text that describe restriction about libevent because
it's already allowed libevent logging to be updated during runtime.
3. Add a description for category "all", "1", "none" and "0".
4. Add "optional" to the help text of <include> and <exclude>.
5. Add missing new lines before "Argument:".
6. This RPC always returns all logging categories with status.
Fix the help text to match this behavior.
