Mutex cs_main is already held by the caller of WriteUndoDataForBlock().
This change is needed to require CBlockIndex::GetUndoPos() to hold
cs_main and CBlockIndex::nStatus to be guarded by cs_main in the
following commits without adding 2 unnecessary cs_main locks to
WriteUndoDataForBlock().

f7086fd8ff Add src/wallet/* code to wallet:: namespace (Russell Yanofsky)
90fc8b089d Add src/node/* code to node:: namespace (Russell Yanofsky)
Pull request description:
There are no code changes, this is just adding `namespace` and `using` declarations and `node::` or `wallet::` qualifiers in some places.
Motivations for this change are:
- To make it easier to see when node and wallet code is being accessed places where it shouldn't be. For example if GUI code is accessing node and wallet internals or if wallet and node code are referencing each other.
- To make source code organization clearer ([#15732](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/15732)), being able to know that `wallet::` code is in `src/wallet/`, `node::` code is in `src/node/`, `init::` code is in `src/init/`, `util::` code is in `src/util/`, etc.
Reviewing with `git log -p -n1 -U0 --word-diff-regex=.` can be helpful to verify this is only updating declarations, not changing code.

The new helper function, BlockManager::WriteBlockIndexDB(),
has a thread safety lock annotation in its declaration but is
missing the corresponding run-time lock assertion in its definition.
Per doc/developer-notes.md: "Combine annotations in function
declarations with run-time asserts in function definitions."

Globals aren't too nice because they hide dependencies, also they make testing harder.
Fix that by removing some.

This is a refactor and safe to do because:
* UnloadBlockIndex calls ChainstateManager::Unload, which calls
BlockManager::Unload
* Only unit tests call Unload directly
6544ea5035 refactor: Block unsafe fs::path std::string conversion calls (Russell Yanofsky)
b39a477ec6 refactor: Add fs::PathToString, fs::PathFromString, u8string, u8path functions (Russell Yanofsky)
Pull request description:
The `fs::path` class has a `std::string` constructor which will implicitly convert from strings. Implicit conversions like this are not great in general because they can hide complexity and inefficiencies in the code, but this case is especially bad, because after the transition from `boost::filesystem` to `std::filesystem` in #20744 the behavior of this constructor on windows will be more complicated and can mangle path strings. The `fs::path` class also has a `.string()` method which is inverse of the constructor and has the same problems.
Fix this by replacing the unsafe method calls with `PathToString` and `PathFromString` function calls, and by forbidding unsafe method calls in the future.

re-ACK 6544ea5035, only added `fsbridge_stem` test case, updated comment, and rebased since my [previous](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/22937#pullrequestreview-765503126) review. Verified with the following command:
Tree-SHA512: c36324740eb4ee55151146626166c00d5ccc4b6f3df777e75c112bcb4d1db436c1d9cc8c29a1e7fb96051457d317961ab42e6c380c3be2771d135771b2b49fa0
There is no change in behavior. This just helps prepare for the
transition from boost::filesystem to std::filesystem by avoiding calls
to methods which will be unsafe after the transaction to std::filesystem
to due lack of a boost::filesystem::path::imbue equivalent and inability
to set a predictable locale.

4747da3a5b Add syscall sandboxing (seccomp-bpf) (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
Add experimental syscall sandboxing using seccomp-bpf (Linux secure computing mode).
Enable filtering of system calls using seccomp-bpf: allow only explicitly allowlisted (expected) syscalls to be called.
The syscall sandboxing implemented in this PR is an experimental feature currently available only under Linux x86-64.
To enable the experimental syscall sandbox the `-sandbox=<mode>` option must be passed to `bitcoind`:
```
-sandbox=<mode>
Use the experimental syscall sandbox in the specified mode
(-sandbox=log-and-abort or -sandbox=abort). Allow only expected
syscalls to be used by bitcoind. Note that this is an
experimental new feature that may cause bitcoind to exit or crash
unexpectedly: use with caution. In the "log-and-abort" mode the
invocation of an unexpected syscall results in a debug handler
being invoked which will log the incident and terminate the
program (without executing the unexpected syscall). In the
"abort" mode the invocation of an unexpected syscall results in
the entire process being killed immediately by the kernel without
executing the unexpected syscall.
```
The allowed syscalls are defined on a per thread basis.
I've used this feature since summer 2020 and I find it to be a helpful testing/debugging addition which makes it much easier to reason about the actual capabilities required of each type of thread in Bitcoin Core.

[About seccomp and seccomp-bpf](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seccomp):
> In computer security, seccomp (short for secure computing mode) is a facility in the Linux kernel. seccomp allows a process to make a one-way transition into a "secure" state where it cannot make any system calls except exit(), sigreturn(), and read() and write() to already-open file descriptors. Should it attempt any other system calls, the kernel will terminate the process with SIGKILL or SIGSYS. In this sense, it does not virtualize the system's resources but isolates the process from them entirely.
>
> […]
>
> seccomp-bpf is an extension to seccomp that allows filtering of system calls using a configurable policy implemented using Berkeley Packet Filter rules. It is used by OpenSSH and vsftpd as well as the Google Chrome/Chromium web browsers on Chrome OS and Linux. (In this regard seccomp-bpf achieves similar functionality, but with more flexibility and higher performance, to the older systrace—which seems to be no longer supported for Linux.)

However, keep a declaration in validation to make it possible to move
smaller chunks to blockstorage without breaking compilation.
Also, expose AbortNode in the header.
