Merge bitcoin-core/gui#329: Make console buttons look clickable
8b419b5 qt: make console buttons look clickable (Jarol Rodriguez) Pull request description: On master, for macOS, the console buttons' hitboxes are quite small. This makes clicking on the button with your mouse a little more tedious than it should be. The Issue is related to recent versions of Qt (>5.9.8) not playing so nice on macOS when there are "incorrect" `width` and `height` values set for a `QPushButton` (here is another example: bitcoin-core/gui#319 (review)). This fixes this small hitbox issue by converting the buttons from `QPushButton` to `QToolButton`, which in turn makes the buttons look explicitly clickable. This approach was chosen as it helps us avoid having to play around with `width` and `height` values until we find values that play nice with macOS and look good on Linux & Windows. Also, `QToolButton` is an appropriate class for these buttons. Per [Qt Docs](https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtoolbutton.html#details): > A tool button is a special button that provides quick-access to specific commands or options. As opposed to a normal command button, a tool button usually doesn't show a text label, but shows an icon instead. Since we are changing the type of the buttons, we need to change the respective actions connection logic in `rpcconsole`. Instead of plugging in `QToolButton`, we abstract it to the base class: `QAbstractButton`. per [Qt Dev Notes](https://github.com/bitcoin-core/bitcoin-devwiki/wiki/Developer-Notes-for-Qt-Code#inherited-signals-and-slot) > Use base class functions as this makes the code more general, e.g., use QAbstractButton::clicked instead of QPushButton::clicked. While here, we also update the size of the icons to `22x22` to be consistent with other tool buttons. **macOS: Master vs PR:** | Master | PR | | ----------- | ----------- | | ![master-ss-macos](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/23396902/118339460-e9079c80-b4e6-11eb-864b-d394aca5df61.png) | ![pr-ss-macos](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/23396902/118339468-ec9b2380-b4e6-11eb-9a9e-30620216750e.png) | **Linux: Master vs PR:** | Master | PR | | ----------- | ----------- | | ![master-ss-linux](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/23396902/118339520-13595a00-b4e7-11eb-86d0-96dd1264c198.png) | ![pr-ss-linux](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/23396902/118339533-1c4a2b80-b4e7-11eb-8d7f-f733d999c8fd.png) | ACKs for top commit: hebasto: ACK 8b419b5, tested on Linux Mint 20.1 (Qt 5.12.8). promag: Tested ACK 8b419b5 on macOS Big Sur M1, this drops only relevant usages to `flat` buttons.
