This curbs runaway growth while still allowing substantial
spikes in block weight
Original specification from ArticMine:
here is the scaling proposal
Define: LongTermBlockWeight
Before fork:
LongTermBlockWeight = BlockWeight
At or after fork:
LongTermBlockWeight = min(BlockWeight, 1.4*LongTermEffectiveMedianBlockWeight)
Note: To avoid possible consensus issues over rounding the LongTermBlockWeight for a given block should be calculated to the nearest byte, and stored as a integer in the block itself. The stored LongTermBlockWeight is then used for future calculations of the LongTermEffectiveMedianBlockWeight and not recalculated each time.
Define: LongTermEffectiveMedianBlockWeight
LongTermEffectiveMedianBlockWeight = max(300000, MedianOverPrevious100000Blocks(LongTermBlockWeight))
Change Definition of EffectiveMedianBlockWeight
From (current definition)
EffectiveMedianBlockWeight = max(300000, MedianOverPrevious100Blocks(BlockWeight))
To (proposed definition)
EffectiveMedianBlockWeight = min(max(300000, MedianOverPrevious100Blocks(BlockWeight)), 50*LongTermEffectiveMedianBlockWeight)
Notes:
1) There are no other changes to the existing penalty formula, median calculation, fees etc.
2) There is the requirement to store the LongTermBlockWeight of a block unencrypted in the block itself. This is to avoid possible consensus issues over rounding and also to prevent the calculations from becoming unwieldy as we move away from the fork.
3) When the EffectiveMedianBlockWeight cap is reached it is still possible to mine blocks up to 2x the EffectiveMedianBlockWeight by paying the corresponding penalty.

The configure script in hidapi and libsodium tried to find clang in /usr/bin,
even though the correct prefix was passed in. This sets the correct CC flag.
This was previously undetected, because clang and the sdk where
installed in the global environment.
This also fixes a subsequent error, where IOKIT and CoreFoundation are
not found, again for the reason stated above.
Clang needs to get its cctools path passed directly for the hid build to
succeed.
Make gperf a permanent external dependency.
Remove pcsc from depends.

Drop miniupnp and unbound depends builds. Make sure that build variables are propageted properly to unbound and miniupnp.
Rebase to after the v0.12 release
Add pcsc-lite to linux builds
Fixup windows icu4c linking with depends, the static libraries have an 's' appended to them

Add readline, ldns, graphviz, unbound to depends packages
Add a cmake toolchain file to depends that is uniquely created for every build and placed in triple/share/toolchain.cmake
This file is then passed to cmake with -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/path/to/triple/share/toolchain.cmake
Add the boost locale package to depends
In the depends cmake toolchain file, a DEPENDS flag is added
to exclude, or change cmake checks done that are required for depends
Link miniupnpc and unwind from depends and not external
Add libiconv and icu4c to depends, required for mingw32 builds.
Headers (winsock) need to be lower case in order to compile on unix systems.
This should not affect building on windows.
Depends cross compiles project dependencies for linux, mac and windows and multiple architectures.
Depends is original work by Cory Fields and used in bitcoin and a wide range of bitcoin related projects.

This class will allow mlocking small objects, of which there
may be several per page. It adds refcounting so pages are only
munlocked when the last object on that page munlocks.
