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.
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/14999 is tracking an encoding
bug with the Tor control protocol, where many of the QuotedString instances that
Tor outputs are in fact CStrings, but it is not documented which ones are which.
https://spec.torproject.org/control-spec section 2.1.1 provides a future-proofed
rule for handing QuotedStrings, which this commit implements.
Change help text examples to use Zcash addresses
Closes#1804 and #2109
Ensures command line help text addresses are Zcash addresses.
Didn't change the text strings that say bitcoin or btc, leaving that for #2150 to close
Did I get all the addresses?
Fix an error reporting bug due to BrokenPipeError and ConnectionResetError not existing in Python 2

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.
No longer relevant after #5957. This hack existed because of another
hack where the numthreads parameter, on regtest, doubled as how many
blocks to generate.
To determine the default for `-par`, the number of script verification
threads, use [boost:🧵:physical_concurrency()](http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_58_0/doc/html/thread/thread_management.html#thread.thread_management.thread.physical_concurrency)
which counts only physical cores, not virtual cores.
Virtual cores are roughly a set of cached registers to avoid context
switches while threading, they cannot actually perform work, so spawning
a verification thread for them could even reduce efficiency and will put
undue load on the system.
Should fix issue #6358, as well as some other reported system overload
issues, especially on Intel processors.
The function was only introduced in boost 1.56, so provide a utility
function `GetNumCores` to fall back for older Boost versions.
