Prior to this commit pindexRescan was initialized to a chainActive.Tip().
However, the value of pindexRescan set at time of initialization was never
read before pindexRescan was being set to either chainActive.Genesis()
(case 1), FindForkInGlobalIndex(chainActive, locator) (case 2) or
chainActive.Genesis() (case 3). Thus, the initialization was redundant.
This commit a.) removes the redundant initialization and b.) simplifies
this logic so that pindexRescan is initialized to chainActive.Genesis()
(case 1 and 3), and set to FindForkInGlobalIndex(chainActive, locator)
(case 2) as needed.

This removes the option from the wallet to not pay a fee on "small"
transactions which spend "old" inputs.
This code is no longer worth keeping around, as almost all miners
prefer not to include transactions which pay no fee at all.
Use of `sprintf` is seen as a red flag as many of its uses are insecure.
OpenBSD warns about it while compiling, and some modern platforms, e.g.
[cloudlibc from cloudabi](https://github.com/NuxiNL/cloudlibc) don't
even provide it anymore.
Although our uses of these functions are secure, it can't hurt to
replace them anyway. There are only 3 occurences left, all in the
tests.
- Change initializeResult(int) to initializeResult(bool) to avoid
implicit type conversion.
- Use EXIT_FAILURE and EXIT_SUCCESS instead of magic numbers.
- Remove the argument from shutdownResult(int); it was called with a
constant argument.

An effort to reduce the size of AppInitMain().
The removed code upgrades the location of the block files when
upgrading to 0.8. 0.8 seems to be the oldest version still in use.
If the code was compiled with newer (>=3.17) kernel headers but executed
on a system without the system call, every use of random would crash the
program. Add a fallback for that case.
Move the OS random test to a sanity check function that is called every
time bitcoind is initialized.
Keep `src/test/random_tests.cpp` for the case that later random tests
are added, and keep a rudimentary test that just calls the sanity check.
These are available in sandboxes without access to files or
devices. Also [they are safer and more straightforward](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy-supplying_system_calls)
to use than `/dev/urandom` as reading from a file has quite a few edge
cases:
- Linux: `getrandom(buf, buflen, 0)`. [getrandom(2)](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/getrandom.2.html)
was introduced in version 3.17 of the Linux kernel.
- OpenBSD: `getentropy(buf, buflen)`. The [getentropy(2)](http://man.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi/OpenBSD-current/man2/getentropy.2)
function appeared in OpenBSD 5.6.
- FreeBSD and NetBSD: `sysctl(KERN_ARND)`. Not sure when this was added
but it has existed for quite a while.
Alternatives:
- Linux has sysctl `CTL_KERN` / `KERN_RANDOM` / `RANDOM_UUID`
which gives 16 bytes of randomness. This may be available
on older kernels, however [sysctl is deprecated on Linux](https://lwn.net/Articles/605392/)
and even removed in some distros so we shouldn't use it.
Add tests for `GetOSRand()`:
- Test that no error happens (otherwise `RandFailure()` which aborts)
- Test that all 32 bytes are overwritten (initialize with zeros, try multiple times)
Discussion:
- When to use these? Currently they are always used when available.
Another option would be to use them only when `/dev/urandom` is not
available. But this would mean these code paths receive less testing,
and I'm not sure there is any reason to prefer `/dev/urandom`.

Remove "nLowestTimestamp <= chainActive.Tip()->GetBlockTimeMax()" check from
importmulti, which is always true because nLowestTimestamp is set to the
minimum of the most recent block time and all the imported key timestamps,
which is necessarily lower than the maximum block time.

A new AssertLockHeld(cs_wallet) call was added in commit a58370e
"Dedup nTimeFirstKey update logic" (part of PR #9108).
The lock held assertion will fail when loading prexisting wallets files from
before the #9108 merge that have watch-only keys.

Updates the (overspecified) tests to match behavior.
Because it is used inconsistently at least version 5.4.0 of g++ to

about this: remove override from the methods having it, or add it to the
methods missing it. I chose the second.
