MarcoFalke e7db4e245a Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#24164: build: Bump minimum required clang/libc++ to 8.0
fae20e6b50 Revert "Avoid the use of P0083R3 std::set::merge" (MarcoFalke)
fab53b5fd4 ci/doc: Set minimum required clang/libc++ version to 8.0 (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  This is not for 23.0, but for 24.0. It comes with the following benefits:

  * Can use C++17 P0083R3 std::set::merge from libc++ 8.0
  * No longer need to provide support for clang-7, which already fails to compile on some architectures (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/21294#issuecomment-998098483)

  This should be fine, given that all supported operating systems ship with at least clang-10:

  * CentOS 8: clang-12
  * Stretch: https://packages.debian.org/stretch/clang-11
  * Buster: https://packages.debian.org/buster-backports/clang-11
  * Bionic: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic-updates/clang-10
  * Focal: https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/clang-10

    ACK fae20e6b50 - I think this is fine to do. I would be surprised if in another 6 months time someone was stuck on a system we supported, needing to compile Core, and only had access to Clang 7 or older. As mentioned in the PR description, all systems we currently support, already support multiple newer versions of Clang.

    ACK fae20e6b50, I have reviewed the code and it looks OK, I agree it can be merged.
