Use std::unique_ptr (C++11) where possible.

Rationale:

  1. Avoid resource leaks (specifically: forgetting to delete an object created using new)
  2. Avoid undefined behaviour (specifically: double delete:s)

Note to reviewers: Please let me know if I've missed any obvious std::unique_ptr candidates. Hopefully this PR should cover all the trivial cases.

How about

feeStats = std::move(fileFeeStats);
shortStats = std::move(fileShortStats);
longStats = std::move(fileLongStats);

It would be nice to replace all the new

std::unique_ptr<ClassName>(new ClassName(...))

occurrences this is adding with simpler

make_unique<ClassName>(...)

calls.

std::make_unique isn't available until c++14, so we can't use it yet, but it is easy enough to write a substitute. For example (from #10973):

//! Substitute for C++14 std::make_unique.
template <typename T, typename... Args>
std::unique_ptr<T> MakeUnique(Args&&... args)
{
    return std::unique_ptr<T>(new T(std::forward<Args>(args)...));
}

Is this fixing a potential resource / memory leak? It seems like the pointer was only being freed conditionally below. Maybe update commit description to say how this is changing behavior, if it is changing behavior.

In commit "Use unique_ptr for pcoinscatcher/pcoinsdbview/pcoinsTip/pblocktree"

Can this variable just be deleted like the one in rpcnestedtests.h, since it is shadowing a global with the same name? If it can't be deleted, it would be good to have a comment noting that it does shadow the global (and maybe explaining why).

Avoid resource leaks (specifically: forgetting to delete an object created using new)

Just want to add that this is not a panacea. In a few places I've explicitly used manual pointer allocation/deallocation instead of unique_ptr (for globals) so to explicitly control the lifespan, because the order of deallocation matters. So in some of these cases, forgetting explicit .reset() is as bad as leaking and the 'parachute' that automatic deallocation provides isn't worth anything (could even result in spurious crashes at shutdown).

I like the concept, and encourage anyone who wants more meat on the bone to read Sutter's Mill articles about smart pointers

@laanwj Absolutely true! My goal with this PR is to address only the trivial/safe cases :-)

I know about the dependency on deconstruction order related to LogPrintStr(…) (FILE* fileout, boost::mutex* mutexDebugLog and std::list<std::string>* vMsgsBeforeOpenLog) - so these were intentionally excluded. Were you thinking about to those when mentioning spurious crashes at shutdown? :-)

I found two in a cursory look-over. There might be more instances where explicit .reset is important (where there was an explicit delete before), please be careful in reviewing this.

LogPrintStr(…) (FILE* fileout, boost::mutex* mutexDebugLog and std::liststd::string* vMsgsBeforeOpenLog)
so these were intentionally excluded

Agree with leaving these changes out for that "magic", just too easy to inadvertently break something there.

a8b5d20 Reset pblocktree before deleting LevelDB file (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  #11043 repaced:

  ```
  delete pblocktree;
  pblocktree = new CBlockTreeDB(nBlockTreeDBCache, false, fReset);
  ```

  With:

  ```
  pblocktree.reset(new CBlockTreeDB(nBlockTreeDBCache, false, fReset));
  ```

  This is problematic because `new CBlockTreeDB` tries to delete the existing file, which will fail with `LOCK: already held by process` if it's still open. That's the case for QT.

  When QT finds a problem with the index it will ask the user if they want to reindex. At that point it has already opened `blocks/index`.  It then runs this [while loop](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/v0.16.0rc3/src/init.cpp#L1415) again with `fReset = 1`, resulting in the above error.

  This change makes that error go away, presumably because `reset()` without an argument closes the file.

Pull request description:

  Use `std::unique_ptr` (C++11) where possible.

  Rationale:
  1. Avoid resource leaks (specifically: forgetting to `delete` an object created using `new`)
  2. Avoid undefined behaviour (specifically: double `delete`:s)

  **Note to reviewers:** Please let me know if I've missed any obvious `std::unique_ptr` candidates. Hopefully this PR should cover all the trivial cases.

a8b5d20 Reset pblocktree before deleting LevelDB file (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  bitcoin#11043 repaced:

  ```
  delete pblocktree;
  pblocktree = new CBlockTreeDB(nBlockTreeDBCache, false, fReset);
  ```

  With:

  ```
  pblocktree.reset(new CBlockTreeDB(nBlockTreeDBCache, false, fReset));
  ```

  This is problematic because `new CBlockTreeDB` tries to delete the existing file, which will fail with `LOCK: already held by process` if it's still open. That's the case for QT.

  When QT finds a problem with the index it will ask the user if they want to reindex. At that point it has already opened `blocks/index`.  It then runs this [while loop](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/v0.16.0rc3/src/init.cpp#L1415) again with `fReset = 1`, resulting in the above error.

  This change makes that error go away, presumably because `reset()` without an argument closes the file.
