- dnspython 2.0 requires cryptography 2.6 so we now always require that
(no longer a choice between cryptography and pycryptodomex)
- test_dnssec.py is deleted as it was testing the monkey-patch

For some reason, without this change, the first build works but subsequent builds fail.
Not sure what the cause is. This is why Travis builds work.
This is the time of the year Apple breaks our mac builds, as usual.
mac now has its own "binaries" requirements. This allows us to use
an older version of PyQt5 in the mac binaries. For some reason
if we bundle newer PyQt5, the built app will not start on macOS 11
(but will on older macOS).

in particular, see https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/6461#issuecomment-713888921
The "setup" Windows binary we distribute allows users to "install" Electrum
on their system. The distributable is created by NSIS. During
installation a bunch of files will get unpacked in %programfiles(x86)%/Electrum,
including an "inner" exe that will be the entrypoint for the user to start
the application. A shortcut is also created for the inner exe.
With this change, there will now be two inner EXEs. One the same as before,
the other with a "-debug" suffix in its name. The debug exe is built as a
"console" application (as opposed to a "windowed" application), so when
launched via double-click a black console window would appear; and also
importantly stdin/stdout are handled properly for it (unlike for "windowed"
programs). (see #2592)
There will not be a shortcut or similar for the debug exe; it would just
be there as a debugging option we can instruct users to use when needed.
In particular early crashes during startup are hard to debug without
stdout/stderr. (see e.g. #6601)
Since #6014, pyaes is not really needed anymore.
As we currently require either one of pycryptodomex or cryptography,
even if pyaes is available, it will not be used.
We could strip it out completely from crypto.py...
In any case, pyaes is still pulled in by some hw wallet dependencies indirectly;
but the core library no longer depends on it.
- our new key now supports both
- note that we don't bother to "dual sign" for both sha1 and sha2, as
Win7 upwards sha2 is supported (and we already don't support XP, Vista, etc anymore)
