From a cursory glance, it looks like block 279,000 meets the criteria for
a checkpoint block, and it's also what the bootstrap.dat torrent is at. This closes#3530.
- adds a nice and well formated dialog, which displays our -? help message
(all options/paramaters)
- moves aboutdialog.cpp/h to the new utilitydialog
- move GUI shutdown window to utilitydialog

Currently it is only possible to use `walletpassphrase` to unlock the
wallet when bitcoin is started in server mode.
Almost everything that manipulates the wallet in the RPC console
needs the wallet to be unlocked and is thus unusable without -server.
This is pretty unintuitive to me, and I'm sure it's even more confusing
to users.
Solve this with a very minimal change: by making the GUI start a
dummy RPC thread just to handle timeouts.
- as a proxy set via GUI can be overridden via -proxy, directly query the
core to get active proxy
- give a warning, if active proxy is not SOCKS5 (needs to be SOCKS5 for
the Qt networking code to work)
- also remove an obsolete connect() call from optionsdialog.cpp and a
reference to Bitcoin-Qt (now just GUI)
Instead of using the boost provided by Ubuntu 12.04, build our own
dependency like we do for Windows.
This allows using a much newer version (1.55 versus 1.46) as well as
building with `-fPIC` so that `-pie` can be used in the x86-64 build.
Build only the mt-s (multithreaded, static runtime link)
variant of the library.
This cuts the build time in half.
Also prevent unpacked boost from ending up in output directory,
checking and hashing all the source files as output files this
takes a lot of time and is pointless.
8d31e61 Added automake to the macports depdency list as it was required to complete the autogen.sh step as it required aclocal (which isn't included in recent versions of xcode). (Scott Willeke)
