645e905c32 doc: Add release notes for unloadwallet change to synchronous call (João Barbosa)
c37851de57 rpc: Make unloadwallet wait for complete wallet unload (João Barbosa)
Pull request description:
Currently the `unloadwallet` RPC is asynchronous, it only signals the intent to unload the wallet and then returns the response to the client. The actual unload can happen later and the client has no way to be notified of that.
This PR makes the `unloadwallet` RPC synchronous, meaning that it blocks until the wallet is fully unloaded.
Replaces #14919, fixes#14917.

The new `getrpcinfo` command exposes details of the RPC interface. The details can be configuration properties or runtime values/stats.
This can be particular useful to coordinate concurrent functional tests (see #14958 from where this was extracted).

9d0e52834 implements different disk sizes for different networks on intro (marcoagner)
Pull request description:
Fixes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/13213.
Mostly, I layed out the concept to open the PR for refinement and getting feedback if the approach is okay. Changes are expected.
Two points:
- The values for both new consts `TESTNET_BLOCK_CHAIN_SIZE` and `TESTNET_CHAIN_STATE_SIZE` is certainly not optimal; I just checked the size of my testnet3 related dirs and set them to little bit higher values. Which values should be used?
- Should we do something like this to regtest? Or these "niceties" do not matter when on regtest?
Thanks!

a62e667296 docs: Add more Doxygen information to Developer Notes (Jon Layton)
Pull request description:
Update information about Doxygen in `doc/developer-notes.md`.
Alternatively, this could have its own file (like `doc/web-documentation.md`), since there are installation steps included.
For example, I had to run:
```
brew install doxygen graphviz
```
on MacOS, otherwise failures occurred.
This information could also be linked to the `doc/release-process.md`.

a46c8476e9 depends: disable unused qt features (fanquake)
73b46eeb7e depends: qt 5.9.7 (fanquake)
095e765975 depends: expat 2.2.6 (fanquake)
Pull request description:
This PR upgrades `expat` and `qt` in depends. The intention is to upgrade Qt in master to the latest point release of the current Qt LTS. This change can then be back-ported to the 0.17 branch (wether it makes it into 0.17.1 or not).
Then, sometime before the 0.18.0 release, we could move to using Qt 5.12+ in depends (which is also LTS). That discussion, as well as minimum supported Qt versions is in #13478.
### Qt 5.9.7
[Release announcement](https://blog.qt.io/blog/2018/10/23/qt-5-9-7-released/)
[Changelog](https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-70888?filter=20149)
### Expat 2.2.6
* Avoid doing arithmetic with NULL pointers in XML_GetBuffer
* Fix 2.2.5 regression with suspend-resume while parsing a document like <root/>
Full changelog [here](https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/blob/R_2_2_6/expat/Changes)
a46c8476e9 disables a bunch of qt features we aren't currently using. This speeds up the qt depends build slightly (also decreases the size of the built `qt-5.9.7` tar by about 2%). The disabling is somewhat unintuitive, hence `[wip]` until after a travis run and gitian build.

a67d71311d [doc] developer-notes.md: point out that UniValue deviates from upstream (Sjors Provoost)
Pull request description:
While debugging an issue I was somewhat surprised to [learn](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/14164#issuecomment-419752678) that we've moved `src/univalue` from https://github.com/jgarzik/univalue to https://github.com/bitcoin-core/univalue, that these repos are both maintained and they're different.
The first mention of using the bitcoin-core repo is from late 2015 in #7157. I didn't check when the last common ancestor commit is.
I couldn't find documentation as to why (these things just happen in open source of course), but at minimum we should make this more clear.
There's also the following line in `config.ac` that I'm not sure what to do with:
```
AC_INIT([univalue], [1.0.3],
[http://github.com/jgarzik/univalue/])
```

Pull request description:
This PR adds functionality to convert a script to a descriptor, given a `SigningProvider` with the relevant information about public keys and redeemscripts/witnessscripts.
The feature is exposed in `listunspent`, `getaddressinfo`, and `scantxoutset` whenever these calls are applied to solvable outputs/addresses.
This is not very useful on its own, though when we add RPCs to import descriptors, or sign PSBTs using descriptors, these strings become a compact and standalone way of conveying everything necessary to sign an output (excluding private keys).
Unit tests and rudimentary RPC tests are included (more relevant tests can be added once RPCs support descriptors).
Fixes#14503.
