f24bd45b37 net_processing: thread safety annotation for m_tx_relay_mutex (Anthony Towns)

Pull request description:

  This changes `LOCK(mutex)` for non-global, non-recursive mutexes to be annotated with the negative capability for the mutex it refers to, to prevent . clang applies negative capabilities recursively, so this helps avoid forgetting to annotate functions.

  This can't reasonably be used for globals, because clang would require every function to be annotated with `EXCLUSIVE_LOCKS_REQUIRED(!g_mutex)` for each global mutex; so this introduces a trivial `GlobalMutex` subclass of `Mutex`, and reduces the annotations for both `GlobalMutex`  to `LOCKS_EXCLUDED` which only catches trivial errors (eg (`LOCK(x); LOCK(x);`).

that was added in 2015 by commit b8c06ef40 in PR 7003, as that potential issue
would now be caught by the test/lint/lint-format-strings.py script run by the CI

Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#18568: doc: Clarify developer notes about constant naming
05f9770c1f doc: Clarify developer notes about constant naming (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:

  I'm pretty sure developer notes were intended to say constants should be upper case and variables should be lower case, but right now they are ambiguous about whether to write:

  ```c++
  extern const int SYMBOL;
  ```

  or:

  ```c++
  extern const int g_symbol;
  ```

  First convention above is better than the second convention because it tells you without having to look anything up that the value of `SYMBOL` won't change at runtime. Also I haven't seen other c++ projects using the second convention.

05f9770c1f doc: Clarify developer notes about constant naming
I'm pretty sure developer notes were intended to say constants should be upper
case and variables should be lower case, but right now they are ambiguous about
whether to write:

```c++
// foo.h
extern const int SYMBOL;

// foo.cpp
const int SYMBOL = 1;
```

or:

```c++
// foo.h

// foo.cpp
const int g_symbol = 1;
```

First convention above is better than the second convention because it tells
you without having to look anything up that the value of `SYMBOL` will never
change at runtime. Also I've never seen any c++ project anywhere using the
second convention
