This causes IPC binaries (bitcoin-node, bitcoin-gui) to be included
in releases.
The effect on CI is that this causes more depends builds to build IPC
binaries, but still the only build running functional tests with them
is the i686_multiprocess one.
Except for Windows.
Rename WITH_MULTIPROCESS to ENABLE_IPC, because ENABLE_IPC is a more accurate
name for the feature. It controls whether the src/ipc/ directory is built and
whether IPC features like -ipcbind, -ipcconnect, and -ipcfd are available. It
does NOT currently enable multiprocess features which are implemented in #10102
building on top of the IPC features. It will also no longer (as of the next
commit), control whether a find_package call is made so the "WITH_" prefix is
also inappropriate.

568fcdddae scripted-diff: Adjust documentation per top-level target output location (Hennadii Stepanov)
026bb226e9 cmake: Set top-level target output locations (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
This PR sets the target output locations to the `bin` and `lib` subdirectories within the build tree, creating a directory structure that mirrors that of the installed targets.
This approach is widely adopted by the large projects, such as [LLVM](e146c1867e/lldb/cmake/modules/LLDBStandalone.cmake (L128-L130)):
```cmake
set(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin)
set(CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/lib${LLVM_LIBDIR_SUFFIX})
set(CMAKE_ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/lib${LLVM_LIBDIR_SUFFIX})
```
The `libsecp256k1` project has also recently [adopted](https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/1553) this approach.
With this PR, all binaries are conveniently located. For example, run:
```
$ ./build/bin/fuzz
```
instead of:
```
$ ./build/src/test/fuzz/fuzz
```
On Windows, all required DLLs are now located in the same directory as the executables, allowing to run `bitcoin-chainstate.exe` (which loads `bitcoinkernel.dll`) without the need to copy DLLs or modify the `PATH` variable.
The idea was briefly discussed among the build team during the recent CoreDev meeting.
---
**Warning**: This PR changes build locations of newly built executables like `bitcoind` and `test_bitcoin` from `src/` to `bin/` without deleting previously built executables. A clean build is recommended to avoid accidentally running old binaries.

Code review ACK 568fcdddae. Only change since last review was rebasing. I'm ok with this PR in its current form if other developers are happy with it. I just personally think it is inappropriate to \*silently\* break an everyday developer workflow like `git pull; make bitcoind`. I wouldn't have a problem with this PR if it triggered an explicit error, or if the problem was limited to less common workflows like changing cmake options in an existing build.

autoconf and automake changes to support multiprocess gui/node/wallet execution.
This adds a new --enable-multiprocess flag, and build configuration code to
detect libraries needed for multiprocess support. The --enable-multiprocess
flag builds new bitcoin-node and bitcoin-gui executables, which are updated in
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10102 to communicate across processes.
But for now they are functionally equivalent to existing bitcoind and
bitcoin-qt executables.
