Read more about k-anonymity [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-anonymity). We implement this feature in the monero daemon for transactions
by providing a "Txid Template", which is simply a txid with all but `num_matching_bits` bits zeroed out, and the number `num_matching_bits`. We add an operation to `BlockchainLMDB` called
`get_txids_loose` which takes a txid template and returns all txids in the database (chain and mempool) that satisfy that template. Thus, a client can
ask about a specific transaction from a daemon without revealing the exact transaction they are inquiring about. The client can control the statistical
chance that other TXIDs (besides the one in question) match the txid template sent to the daemon up to a power of 2. For example, if a client sets their `num_matching_bits`
to 5, then statistically any txid has a 1/(2^5) chance to match. With `num_matching_bits`=10, there is a 1/(2^10) chance, so on and so forth.

All the files in src/platform are currently unused and unnecessary. See below:
* `mingw/alloca.h`: unused throughout project
* `msc/sys/param.h`:
1. In `fix_darwin.patch`, `sys/param.h` is well-defined to be used only in OpenBSD environment
2. `int-util.h` already handles when `sys/param.h` is not present and injects its own values
3. `db_drivers/liblmdb/mdb.c` is a similar situation: already explicity handles different platforms
4. `src/crypto/chacha.h` uses `int-util.h` for endianness context
* `msc/alloca.h`: unused
* `msc/inline_c.h`: not needed. the `inline` keyword is supported for C99 I believe, and certainly for C11, C14+
* `msc/stdbool.h`: `stdbool.h` is standard since C99, and MSVC has supported it for a long time (~10 years)
eeda4a8 wallet2: do not lose exception in current thread on refresh (Crypto City
f868768 wallet2: fix missing exceptions from failing wallet refresh (Crypto City)
- Detach & re-process txs >= lowest scan height
- ensures that if a user calls scan_tx(tx1) after scanning tx2,
the wallet correctly processes tx1 and tx2
- if a user provides a tx with a height higher than the wallet's
last scanned height, the wallet will scan starting from that tx's
height
- scan_tx requires trusted daemon iff need to re-process existing
txs: in addition to querying a daemon for txids, if a user
provides a txid of a tx with height *lower* than any *already*
scanned txs in the wallet, then the wallet will also query the
daemon for all the *higher* txs as well. This is likely
unexpected behavior to a caller, and so to protect a caller from
revealing txid's to an untrusted daemon in an unexpected way,
require the daemon be trusted.
Before this change, if a multisig peer asked you to sign a transaction with a frozen enote, the wallet will do it without any error or warning. This change makes it
so that wallets will refuse to sign multisig transactions with frozen enotes.
Disclaimer: This PR was generously funded by @LocalMonero.
All Monero binaries have 1 second startup delay because of this code. This is especially noticeable and affects UX in Monero GUI wallet with local node where it often starts another monerod instance to run commands and query node status.
Ensures both transfers and sweeps use a fee that's calculated
from the tx's weight. Using different logic could theoretically
enable distinguishability between the two types of txs. We don't
want that.
The gamma picker and the caller code did not quite agree on the
number of rct outputs available for use - by one block - which
caused an infinite loop if the picker could never pick outputs
from that block but already had picked all other outputs from
previous blocks.
Also change the range to select from using code from UkoeHB.
It's not allowed to use WaitForSingleObject with _beginthread, because the thread closes its own handle before exiting.
So the wait function will either wait on an invalid handle, or on a different handle used by something else.
Or, if it starts waiting before the thread exits, the behavior is undefined according to MS: "If this handle is closed while the wait is still pending, the function's behavior is undefined."
In my test sync I observed threads getting stuck infinitely on WaitForSingleObject, and then rx_set_main_seedhash spamming new threads when RandomX seed changes again. Eventually the system ran out of resources, and monerod aborted with "Couldn't start RandomX seed thread" message.
This PR fixes it by using `_beginthreadex` instead and explicitly closing the handle when it's safe.
