The coin selection strategy for MiniWallet is quite straight-forward: simply
pick a single UTXO with the largest value:
self._utxos = sorted(self._utxos, key=lambda k: k['value'])
utxo_to_spend = utxo_to_spend or self._utxos.pop()
If there are several candidates with the same value, however, it is not clear
which one is taken. This can be particularly problematic for coinbase outputs
with fixed block subsidy, since spending could lead to a
'bad-txns-premature-spend-of-coinbase' reject if an UTXO from a too-recent
block is picked. Introduce block height as second criteria (saved in
self._utxos in the methods generate(...) and rescan_utxos(...)), in order to
avoid potential issues with coinbases that are not matured yet.
fac62e6ff5 test: Delete generate* calls from TestNode (MarcoFalke)
fac7f6102f test: Use generate* node RPC, not wallet RPC (MarcoFalke)
faac1cda6e test: Use generate* from TestFramework, not TestNode (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Deleting the methods is needed for #22567 to pave the way to make it easier to implicitly call the `sync_all` member function.
Without the methods being deleted, nothing prevents developers from adding calls to it. As history showed, developers *will* add calls to it. For example, see commit eb02dbba3c from today or the first commit in this pull request.

429b49378e test: introduce script_util helper for creating P2PK scripts (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
This PR is a follow-up to #22363, which took use of already existing `script_util` helpers to get rid of manual CScript for the P2{PKH,SH,WPKH,WSH} output types, in order to increase readability and maintainability of the test code. Here the same is done for P2PK scripts by introducing a helper `key_to_p2pk_script` and using it. Note that the helper only accepts ECDSA pubkeys (i.e. ones with a size of 33 or 65 bytes), hence it can't be used for scripts in the form of [x-only-pubkey, OP_CHECKSIG].

fa2ac5881e test: Replace satoshi_round with int() or Decimal() (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
satoshi_round will round down. To make the code easier to parse use
Decimal() where possible, which does not round. Or use int(), which
explicitly rounds down.
