Merge #20419: build: set minimum supported macOS to 10.14 
a52ecc936a build: set minimum supported macOS to 10.14 (fanquake)

Pull request description:

  This is a requirement for C++17 support. See my comments [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16684#issuecomment-643722538):

  > You cannot use std::get with std::variant on macOS < 10.14, because Apples libc++ doesn't support the std::bad_variant_access exception. [Relevant comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/19183#discussion_r439794318) in #19183.

  > While we could work around this in our own code, using std::get_if, this would still be a problem for 3rd-party dependencies.

  > I've been testing Qt 5.15LTS (we'll have to enable C++17 in qt, and may upgrade to a newer version at the same time), and you can't enable -std c++17, while targeting a macOS deployment version < 10.14, configuring will fail. They are making use of std::get with std::variant throughout their cocoa code.

  We would have to had to have bumped to at least 10.13 in any case, as Qt 5.15 (#19716) [requires 10.13+](https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/supported-platforms.html).

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 requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. 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 Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
