Merge #11909: contrib: Replace developer keys with list of pgp fingerprints
fabb72b contrib: Remove xpired 522739F6 key (MarcoFalke)
faeab66 contrib: Replace developer keys with list of pgp fingerprints (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  Having to host a copy of the keys in this repo was a common source of discussion and distraction, caused by problems such as:

  * Outdated keys. Unclear whether and when to replace by fresh copies.
  * Unclear when to add a key of a new developer or Gitian builder.

  The problems are solved by
  * Having no keys but only the fingerprints
  * Adding a rule of thumb, when to add a new key

  <strike>Moving the keys to a different repo solves none of these issues, but since the keys are not bound to releases or git branches of Bitcoin Core, they should live somewhere else.

  Obviously, all keys are hosted and distributed on key servers, but were added to the repo solely for convenience and redundancy.

  Moving the mirror of those keys to a different repo makes it less distracting to update them -- let's say -- prior to every major release.

  I updated our `doc/release-process.md` to reflect the new location.

  DEPENDS_ON https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gitian.sigs/pull/621

README.md

Repository Tools

Developer tools

Specific tools for developers working on this repository. Contains the script github-merge.py for merging GitHub pull requests securely and signing them using GPG.

Verify-Commits

Tool to verify that every merge commit was signed by a developer using the above github-merge.py script.

Linearize

Construct a linear, no-fork, best version of the blockchain.

Qos

A Linux bash script that will set up traffic control (tc) to limit the outgoing bandwidth for connections to the Bitcoin network. This means one can have an always-on bitcoind instance running, and another local bitcoind/bitcoin-qt instance which connects to this node and receives blocks from it.

Seeds

Utility to generate the pnSeed[] array that is compiled into the client.

Build Tools and Keys

Debian

Contains files used to package bitcoind/bitcoin-qt for Debian-based Linux systems. If you compile bitcoind/bitcoin-qt yourself, there are some useful files here.

Gitian-descriptors

Files used during the gitian build process. For more information about gitian, see the the Bitcoin Core documentation repository.

Gitian-keys

PGP keys used for signing Bitcoin Core Gitian release results.

MacDeploy

Scripts and notes for Mac builds.

RPM

RPM spec file for building bitcoin-core on RPM based distributions.

Gitian-build

Script for running full Gitian builds.

Test and Verify Tools

TestGen

Utilities to generate test vectors for the data-driven Bitcoin tests.

Verify Binaries

This script attempts to download and verify the signature file SHA256SUMS.asc from bitcoin.org.
