e91b96192 Create dependencies.md, and link dependencies file from README & build docs (flack)
Pull request description:
As @fanquake mentioned in #8639, this should probably be a file in `doc/`, so I went ahead and pulled the issue text via the github API and dumped it into a file. No modifications made, except one spelling fix. This makes the info easier to find, and it will get a proper version history, too.

86e6dd4b6 Remove duplicate destination decoding (João Barbosa)
8d0041e60 Remove unused GetKeyID and IsScript methods from CBitcoinAddress (João Barbosa)
Pull request description:
Follow up of #11117, this patch removes an extra unnecessary destination decoding that was identified while reviewing #11117. It is also the only case where `IsValidDestinationString` is called before `DecodeDestination`.
For reference see [comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11117#discussion_r137145517).

There are a few too many edge-cases here to make this a scripted diff.
The following commits will move a few functions into PeerLogicValidation, where
the local connman instance can be used. This change prepares for that usage.

1aa97ee08 Add savemempool RPC (Lawrence Nahum)
467cbbcbf Add return value to DumpMempool (Lawrence Nahum)
Pull request description:
Adds a simple parameterless rpc command to dump the mempool.
Rationale:
Sometimes there can be a crash for whatever reason (bug, power loss, etc) causing the mempool.dat file to not be saved.
This change allows to script/cron the rpc call to have more regular saves to the file as well as cli/ad-hoc.
This should solve issue https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/11086

The implementation we currently use from OpenSSL prevents the compiler from optimizing away clensing operations on blocks of memory that are about to be released, but this protection is not extended to link-time optimization. This commit copies the solution cooked up by Google compiler engineers which uses inline assembly directives to instruct the compiler not to optimize out the call under any circumstances. As the code is in-lined, this has the added advantage of removing one more OpenSSL dependency.
Regarding license compatibility, Google's contributions to BoringSSL library, including this code, is made available under the ISC license, which is MIT compatible.

864cd2787 Move CBitcoinAddress to base58.cpp (Pieter Wuille)
5c8ff0d44 Introduce wrappers around CBitcoinAddress (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
This patch removes the need for the intermediary Base58 type `CBitcoinAddress`, by providing {`Encode`,`Decode`,`IsValid`}`Destination` functions that directly operate on the conversion between `std::string`s and `CTxDestination`.
As a side, it also fixes a number of indentation issues, and removes probably several unnecessary implicit `CTxDestination`<->`CBitcoinAddress` conversions.
This change is far from complete. In follow-ups I'd like to:
* Split off the specific address and key encoding logic from base58.h, and move it to a address.h or so.
* Replace `CTxDestination` with a non-`boost::variant` version (which can be more efficient as `boost::variant` allocates everything on the heap, and remove the need for `boost::get<...>` and `IsValidDestination` calls everywhere).
* Do the same for `CBitcoinSecret`, `CBitcoinExtKey`, and `CBitcoinExtPubKey`.
However, I've tried to keep this patch to be minimally invasive, but still enough to support non-Base58 addresses. Perhaps a smaller patch is possible to hack Bech32 support into `CBitcoinAddress`, but I would consider that a move in the wrong direction.

faa8d9581 [qa] TestNode: Add wait_until_stopped helper method (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
This adds a helper method `wait_until_stopped` to the `TestNode` class. This should prevent numerous `time.sleep()` over all places.
Additionally, the timeout behavior is restored. (Was removed by the introduction of `TestNode`.)
This should prevent tests from running indefinitely by accident.

Pull request description:
As discussed briefly here: https://botbot.me/freenode/bitcoin-core-dev/2017-02-28/?msg=81712308&page=4
This adds a hidden command line option for setting `nMinimumChainWork`, which allows us to test this parameter in our functional tests, as well as allowing for niche use cases like syncing nodes that are otherwise disconnected from the network.
See also #10345, which proposes a new use of `nMinimumChainWork`.

`make` rebuilds the entire project. This is quite slow if e.g. you're making changes to one file and only wish to run the bitcoind tests.
This commit adds an instruction to run `make -C src/test` (as opposed to `make src/test` and `make src/test/test_bitcoin`).

ce3baa193 changed regtest RPCport to 18443 to avoid conflict with testnet 18332 (Ferdinando M. Ametrano)
Pull request description:
using the same JSON-RPC default port for both testnet and regtest prevents running both at the same time on the same machine. Since RPCport=P2Pport-1 for both mainnet and testnet, and regtest P2Pport being 18444, 18443 is proposed for regtest RPCport
Documentation has been updated (or created where missing); manpages doc/man/bitcoin*.1 could include information for regtest too
