Closes#2279. Configures CMake to enable C++11, build static libaries
and only build cpp bindings with minimal dependencies. Documentation,
examples, tests and other language bindings are no longer built.
CMake will no longer try to find commands and packages which are not
required for building the target.
Debian 8 stable ships with gcc 4.9.2 and cmake 3.0.2. Previously
the depends package used CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD to tell cmake to use
C++11, but the option requires cmakes 3.1+. To resolve the issue
we now update relevant CMakeLists.txt and set CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS.
Add a patch that seems to be necessary for compatibilty of libevent
2.0.22 with recent mingw-w64 gcc versions (at least GCC 5.3.1 from Ubuntu
16.04).
Without this patch the Content-Length in the HTTP header ends up as
`Content-Length: zu`, causing communication between the RPC
client and server to break down. See discussion in #8653.

Thanks to @sstone for the suggestion.
V1.0.0 rc1 gitian
Removes indeterminism from gitian builds: underlying processor instruction set variant of x86_64 was being detected by the libgmp autoconf process, which caused differences in libgmp and libsnark
Upstream gitian updates
This PR pulls in all gitian-related PRs that have been merged upstream since 0.11.2. The only ones I left out were documentation-only PRs, because we removed `doc/gitian-building.md` at some point. Here are the commits applied here, in the order shown in `git log` (ie. last to first):

Part of #540
This does not break any existing prefix behavior, only makes new behavior work.
For example:
CONFIG_SITE=$PWD/depends/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/share/config.site ./configure --prefix=/
bdb 6.X was released under the AGPL, which is incompatible with MIT-licensed
software (the result must be licensed under AGPL). bdb 5.X uses the same license
as bdb 4.8, and thus retains the same compatibility as in upstream Bitcoin.
Thanks to Luke-Jr for raising this issue.
These flags are potentially risky, because they require that the app explicitly
initialize stuff that it wouldn't otherwise need to initialize, and we don't
have time for the necessary review.
