Pull request description:
The currently used Qt 5.15 is approaching [EOL](https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-5.15-extended-support-for-subscription-license-holders) and will reach it before the Bitcoin Core v30 release. The recent migration of the build system to CMake makes it possible to switch to Qt 6.
This PR updates the OS runtime compatibility requirements for the Bitcoin Core GUI as follows:
### 1. Linux
Starting with Qt 6.5.0, the `libxcb-cursor0` package is required to be installed at runtime.
### 2. Windows
Cross-compiling does not support LTO. We have to re-add it in a follow-up.
A new style plugin causes minor visual glitches, such as
which will be fixed in follow-ups.
### 3. macOS
`bitcoin-qt` now uses the [Metal](https://developer.apple.com/metal/) backend.

UPD 2024-10-09. Qt 6.8 has been [released](https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-6.8-released), but it has some [drawbacks](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30997#issuecomment-2402990346) for us. As a result, this PR will stick to Qt 6.7.
UPD 2025-03-18: [Standard support for Qt 5.15 will end after 26th of May 2025](https://www.qt.io/blog/extended-security-maintenance-for-qt-5.15-begins-may-2025)

1. Do not set `C{PLUS}_INCLUDE_PATH` variables
The build system for Qt 6 differs entirely from that of Qt 5. Building a
set of native Qt 6 tools now forms a separate step when cross-compiling.
Under these new circumstances, the `C{PLUS}_INCLUDE_PATH` environment
variables may alter the default include directories for both native and
cross compilers.
Previously, we explicitly unset these variables when invoking clang for
cross-compiling; however, that approach proved suboptimal (see #30451).
This change sets the native toolchain for dependencies explicitly,
rather than relying on the `C{PLUS}_INCLUDE_PATH` environment variables.
Additionally, it facilitates the transition towards using clang for
building native tools when cross-compiling for macOS.
2. Add `ninja` package.
3. Adjust allowed symbol lists.
This makes it humanly possible to track progress as only "[N/M]"-lines are printed as long as we succeed.
Also, use char (a, b) to indicate run_id instead of u8 (0, 1).
Also, use emojis to indicate final success or error.

Pull request description:
In #31118, the format of bitcoind's `--help` output changed slightly in a way that breaks `gen-bitcoin-conf.sh`, modify the script to accommodate the new format, by starting after the line that says "Options:" and stripping the `-help` options and descriptions from the script output.
Before this PR, all options above `-help` were excluded from the example bitcoin.conf.

Pull request description:
The `contrib/devtools/test_deterministic_coverage.sh` script is problematic:
* It is written in bash. This can lead to issues when running with the ancient bash version shipped by macOS by default, or can lead to other compatibility issues, such as https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31588#discussion_r1946784827. Also, pipefail isn't set, so IO errors may be silently ignored.
* It is based on gcov. This can lead to issues, such as https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31588#pullrequestreview-2602169248 (possibly due to prefix-map), or https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31588#issuecomment-2646395385 (gcovr processing error), or https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31588#pullrequestreview-2605954001 (gcovr assertion error).
* The script is severely outdated, with the last update to `NON_DETERMINISTIC_TESTS` being in the prior decade.
Instead of patching around all issues one-by-one, just provide a fresh rewrite, based on the recently added `deterministic-fuzz-coverage` tool based on clang, llvm-cov, and llvm-profdata. (Initial feedback indicates that this is a more promising attempt: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31588#issuecomment-2649356408 and https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31588#issuecomment-2649354598).
The new tool also sets `RANDOM_CTX_SEED=21` as suggested by hodlinator in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31588#issuecomment-2650784726.

026bb226e96919603af829d0b677779a234a0f6e cmake: Set top-level target output locations (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
This PR sets the target output locations to the `bin` and `lib` subdirectories within the build tree, creating a directory structure that mirrors that of the installed targets.
This approach is widely adopted by the large projects, such as [LLVM](e146c1867e/lldb/cmake/modules/LLDBStandalone.cmake (L128-L130)):
```cmake
set(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin)
set(CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/lib${LLVM_LIBDIR_SUFFIX})
set(CMAKE_ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/lib${LLVM_LIBDIR_SUFFIX})
```
The `libsecp256k1` project has also recently [adopted](https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/1553) this approach.
With this PR, all binaries are conveniently located. For example, run:
```
$ ./build/bin/fuzz
```
instead of:
```
$ ./build/src/test/fuzz/fuzz
```
On Windows, all required DLLs are now located in the same directory as the executables, allowing to run `bitcoin-chainstate.exe` (which loads `bitcoinkernel.dll`) without the need to copy DLLs or modify the `PATH` variable.
The idea was briefly discussed among the build team during the recent CoreDev meeting.
---
**Warning**: This PR changes build locations of newly built executables like `bitcoind` and `test_bitcoin` from `src/` to `bin/` without deleting previously built executables. A clean build is recommended to avoid accidentally running old binaries.

These scripts are becoming more of nuisance, than a value-add;
particularly since we've been building releases using Guix. Adding new
(release bin) tests can be harder, because it requires constructing a
failing test, which is becoming less easy e.g trying to disable a
feature or protection that has been built into the compiler/toolchain by
default.
In the pre-Guix days, these were valuable to sanity-check the environment,
because we were pulling that pre-built from Ubuntu, with little control.
At this point, it's less clear what these scripts are (sanity) checking.
Note that these also weren't completely ported to CMake (#31698), see
also #31715 which contains other fixes that would be needed for these
test-tests, to accomodate future changes.
the cmake build steps suggest a build/ directory, which breaks these
scripts. Additionally, in-tree builds are no longer allowed, so it makes
sense to update the code and the README accordingly.

bbbb2e43ee95c9a8866aa1f65e3f001f752dfed2 log: Enforce trailing newline, Remove redundant m_started_new_line (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
There are many problems around missing a trailing newline while logging:
* All log lines are currently terminated by a trailing newline. This means any runtime code trying to handle a "missing" newline is currently dead code.
* Leaving a line unterminated is racy and can cause content corruption by mixing log lines from different sources.
* It requires extra code like `m_started_new_line` to keep track of, which is annoying and pointless to maintain, because it is currently dead code, see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30386#discussion_r1684380835.
* It requires a standalone `unterminated-logprintf` clang-tidy plugin, which is unmaintained (no one updated it for the new log function names), probably harder to maintain than normal C++ code (because it requires clang AST matcher knowledge), brittle (it can fail to detect issues at any time, if it goes out-of-sync, or be explicitly disabled via `NOLINT`), and annoying for devs (it is slow and intricate to run locally and thus only effectively run on CI or via the CI scripts).
Fix all issues by enforcing the trailing newline in logs directly in the code. Then remove all the other stuff.
This refactor does not change behavior.

Pull request description:
Fix check-deps.sh to check for weak symbols so it can detect when an exported template function like is used from another library.
Also update the script to work with cmake and configure it to run as part of CI.

Pull request description:
The checks have many issues:
* Some checks that could in theory hide bugs are not applied -> Fix them and apply them going forward
* Some checks are redundant Python 2 checks, or of low value -> Remove them
* The checks are slow -> Speed them up from ~10 seconds to about ~20 milliseconds

Script was failing when called on libraries that do not import symbols, because
bash pipefail option was specified, and grep was used in some pipelines to
filter symbols, and grep returns status 1 when it doesn't match any lines. This
could cause the script to fail on some systems and configurations, such as the
clang-tidy CI configuration
https://cirrus-ci.com/task/4801670352207872?logs=ci#L6191 where the
libbitcoin_crypto_x86_shani.a library does not import symbols.
Fix check-deps.sh to check for weak symbols so it can detect when an exported
template function is used from another library.
In a previous version of this commit, this change caused an invalid dependency
in the consensus library on the TryParseHex template function from the util
library to be detected, and a suppression was added here. But #30377 removed
the invalid dependency so the suppression is no longer needed.
The invalid dependency and problem detecting weak symbol usage was originally
reported by Hennadii Stepanov in

Pull request description:
This adds a height parameter to the `dumptxoutset` RPC. This internalizes the workflow that was previously done by scripts: roll back the chain to the height we actually want the snapshot from, create the snapshot, roll forward to the real tip again.
The nice thing about internalizing this functionality is that we can write tests for the code and it gives us more options to make the functionality robust. The shell scripts we have so far will be more cumbersome to maintain in the long run, especially since we will only notice later when we have broken them. I think it's safe to remove these `test_utxo_snapshots.sh` as well when we have this option in `dumptxoutset` because we have also added some good additional functional test coverage for this functionality.
