Mempool persistence was added in
3f78562df5, and is always on. This commit
introduces a command-line parameter -persistmempool, which defaults to
true. When set to false:
- mempool.dat is not loaded when the node starts.
- mempool.dat is not written when the node stops.
Construct scoped_connection directly instead of relying on copy initialization
and move constructor. Avoids the following compile error in debian jessie:

This adds a mode argument to `getmemoryinfo`. By default the output
will remain the same. However if a mode argument of `mallocinfo` is
provided the result of glibc `malloc_info` (if available) will
be returned as a string, as-is.
This is useful for tracking heap usage over time or troubleshooting
memory fragmentation issues.
Avoids following error when qt is statically linked into the test binary, as on
travis:
This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "xcb"
in "".
Segwit's version bit will be signalled for all invocations of CreateNewBlock,
and not specifying segwit only will cause CreateNewBlock to skip transactions
with witness from being selected.
Instead of having an exception propagate into the program when an
error happens while formatting a log message, just print a message to
the log.
Addresses #9423.
We previously would block waiting for a CSemaphoreGrant in
ThreadOpenAddedConnections, when we did not need to. This would
block as the posts in CConnman shutdown were both to the wrong
semaphore and in the wrong location.
RPC_INVALID_REQUEST and RPC_METHOD_NOT_FOUND are mapped internally to
HTTP error codes and should not be used for application-layer errors.
This commit adds commenting around those definitions to warn not to use
them for application errors.
