8916f7967e scripted-diff: Use C.UTF-8 locale in Guix scripts (Hennadii Stepanov)

Pull request description:

  The C.UTF-8 locale is set by default in `guix shell`, and there is no reason to avoid it nowadays. This PR also silences superfluous warnings from Qt tools, making build logs cleaner and other issues easier to spot. For example:
  ```
  Detected locale "C" with character encoding "ANSI_X3.4-1968", which is not UTF-8.
  Qt depends on a UTF-8 locale, and has switched to "C.UTF-8" instead.
  If this causes problems, reconfigure your locale. See the locale(1) manual
  for more information.
  ```

  Locales in the `guix-*` launch scripts have been updated as well for consistency with the rest of the codebase.

  Additionally, the headers of the Guix scripts have been adjusted for [uniformity](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/35775#discussion_r3636959268).

Verify-Commits

Tool to verify that every merge commit was signed by a developer using the github-merge.py script.

Linearize

Construct a linear, no-fork, best version of the blockchain.

Qos

A Linux bash script that will set up traffic control (tc) to limit the outgoing bandwidth for connections to the Bitcoin network. This means one can have an always-on bitcoind instance running, and another local bitcoind/bitcoin-qt instance which connects to this node and receives blocks from it.

Utility to generate the pnSeed[] array that is compiled into the client.

ASMap

Utilities to analyze and process asmap files.

Build Tools and Keys

Packaging

The Debian subfolder contains the copyright file.

All other packaging related files can be found in the bitcoin-core/packaging repository.

MacDeploy

Scripts and notes for Mac builds.

Test and Verify Tools

TestGen

Utilities to generate test vectors for the data-driven Bitcoin tests.

Verify-Binaries

This script attempts to download and verify the signature file SHA256SUMS.asc from bitcoin.org.

Command Line Tools

Completions

Shell completions for bash and fish.

UTXO Set Tools

UTXO-to-SQLite

This script converts a compact-serialized UTXO set (as generated by Bitcoin Core with dumptxoutset) to a SQLite3 database. For more details like e.g. the created table name and schema, refer to the module docstring on top of the script, which is also contained in the command's --help output.
