It was wrongly refering to equiprobable distribution, which I think
I'd originally done, but forgot to update the comment after changing
to triangular

Two recent papers quantified the real usage bias for the
real output in a ring being the true one, and shows that
the current biasing is much too weak.
While we wait for a better solution, we increase the ratio
of recent-to-total fake outputs, as well as decrease the
time window for recent outputs, so that half the fake outs
are selected within the last 1.8 day. Value plucked from
figure 10, page 11 of An Empirical Analysis of Linkability
in the Monero Blockchain, 2017, Miller et al.
This is also arbitrary, of course, but serves as a stopgap
till a better selection algorithm is chosen.
EVP_dss1() was deprecated and EVP_sha1() is the direct replacement.
Upstream libunbound already has this patch. Note that I haven't
added a test for HAVE_EVP_DSS1 since that was deprecated quite a
long time ago in OpenSSL, there's really no reason to support it.
- Performance improvements
- Added `span` for zero-copy pointer+length arguments
- Added `std::ostream` overload for direct writing to output buffers
- Removal of unused `string_tools::buff_to_hex`

The section on contributing to the Monero project is buried deep below lots of other information in the main README. This PR moves that section (which is very small since it links to a different document) up to an easier to locate place just below License information.
