Merge #16871: build: make building protobuf optional in depends

107e030 build: make protobuf optional in depends (fanquake)
ff6122f doc: clarify protobuf build requirements (fanquake)

Pull request description:

  As mentioned by dongcarl in bitcoin/bitcoin#15584 (comment), make building `protobuf` optional in depends. With this change it will only be built if you pass `PROTOBUF=1`.

ACKs for top commit:
  laanwj:
    code review ACK 107e030
  Sjors:
    tACK 107e030 on macOS 10.14. When I build depends with `PROTOBUF=1` then `./configure` has `bip70` enabled.
