I tried to turn this into a simple one-liner as well (something like ``git log --merges --format="- \`%h\` %s (%an)" v0.16.0..v0.16.1``), but it didn't seem to capture everything I needed. Would it be worthwhile **wumpus** open-sourcing his code into `contrib/devtools` so there is no single point of failure (even if it can manually be worked around).

Qt4.x has been EOL since 2015, and at least Gentoo has, or is going to drop support for it. I wouldn't be surprised if other Linux distributions follow. This removes Qt4 detection from the build system, as well as removes all Qt4 fallbacks from the code. Turns out there's more than I expected: this is going to make maintenance of the GUI code, as well as adding new features significantly easier. (I know there's still some references left to qt4 in RPM and Debian build script, but I don't have the knowledge how to fix them) Tree-SHA512: d495924fd4dda6f6566ba44ee96be7cbe62e69ba1ca993b80a8449f78da852b7f1bd3e8200d57cfa1d72233c340eeff4596fb0032ecbddc715d99aea63817d3f

There is also no manual pruning UI (`prune=1`). The user will have to use `bitcoin.conf` for those things. Fixes #6461.

(Motivated by my opinion that the dev tools are mostly for generating code and updating the repo whereas the linters are read-only checks.) Also, adds a readme to clarify that checks and linters are only meant to prevent bugs and user facing issues, not merely stylistic preference or inconsistencies. (This is motivated by the diversity in developers and work flows as well as existing code styles. It would be too disruptive to change all existing code to a single style or too burdensome to force all developers to adhere to a single style. Also note that our style guide is changing, so locking in at the wrong style "too early" would only waste resources.)
