build: Drop libevent from bitcoin-cli link libraries
Co-authored-by: fanquake <fanquake@gmail.com>
What changed, and why it matters
This commit simply removes two unused library links from the build configuration for bitcoin-cli, the command-line tool. There is no code change and no security issue is indicated.
No security action needed; this is a routine build-system cleanup.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The patch removes libevent::core and libevent::extra from the target_link_libraries of bitcoin-cli in src/CMakeLists.txt. This is a build cleanup because bitcoin-cli no longer depends on libevent. No functional or security-relevant code is modified.
