Previously -proxy was not setting the proxy for IsLimited networks, so
if you set your configuration to be onlynet=tor you wouldn't get an
IPv4 proxy set.
The payment protocol gets its proxy configuration from the IPv4 proxy,
and so it would experience a connection leak.
This addresses issue #5355 and also clears up a cosmetic bug where
getinfo proxy output shows nothing when onlynet=tor is set.
Like in a real world situation, a safe mode test should also be visible in the
UI. A test of safe mode is furthermore mostly relevant for developers, so it
should not be overwritten by a warning about a pre-release test build.
Add a sanity check to prevent cosmic rays from flipping a bit in the
generated public key, or bugs in the elliptic curve code. This is
simply done by signing a (randomized) message, and verifying the
result.

Closes#5325#5184#5183#5182
Some users may have libtool libs (.la) installed in their linker search paths.
In this case, using -static-libtool-libs would try to link in .a's instead of
shared libs. That would be harmless unless the .a was built in a way that
would break linking, like non-fpic.
What we really want is "-static" here. Despite its name, it's actually less
aggressive than -static-libtool-libs. It causes only internal libs to be linked
statically (libbitcoinconsensus is the one were'a after).
This turns STRICTENC turn into a softforking-safe change (even though it
is not intended as a consensus rule), and as a result guarantee that using
it for mempool validation only results in consensus-valid transactions in
the mempool.
Previously, AcceptBlockHeader did not check the header (in particular
PoW). This made the client accept invalid-PoW-headers from peers in
headers-first sync.
