cd0e1e91dd Fix inconsistent namespace formatting guidelines (Russell Yanofsky)
Pull request description:
Suggested formatting for namespaces in the developer guide is currently inconsistent. This commit updates the developer guide and clang-format configuration to consistently put "namespace" and opening/closing braces on the same line. Example:
```c++
namespace boost {
namespace signals2 {
class connection;
} // namespace signals2
} // namespace boost
```
Currently the [Source code organization](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/developer-notes.md#source-code-organization) section has an example like the one above, but the [Coding style](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/developer-notes.md#coding-style) section example and description put a newline between the opening "namespace foo" and brace (but oddly no newline between closing namespace and brace).
Avoiding newlines before namespace opening braces makes nested declarations less verbose and also avoids asymmetry with closing braces. It's also a common style used in our own and other codebases:

* https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Coding_Style#Classes
* https://llvm.org/docs/CodingStandards.html#namespace-indentation

Bitcoin Core
Setup
Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions (which is currently more than 100 GBs); depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.
To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.
Running
The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin on your native platform.
Unix
Unpack the files into a directory and run:
bin/bitcoin-qt(GUI) orbin/bitcoind(headless)
Windows
Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.
OS X
Drag Bitcoin-Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin-Core.
