Calling getblocktemplate without the segwit rule specified is most
likely a client error, since it results in lower fees for the miner.
Prevent this client error by failing getblocktemplate if called without
the segwit rule specified.
The block height validation is gated by the startup option
`con_blockheightinheader`, accesible in custom chains only
using option `chain=<name>`. Only if set to true will this
field be (de)serialized and evaluated in consensus logic.
Otherwise the field is simply ignored, other than being
stored in memory as the default value 0.

Some trivial maintenance to avoid having to do it again after the 0.17 branch off.
(The scripts to do this are in `./contrib/`)

faa24441ec policy: Remove promiscuousmempoolflags (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
It seems odd to clutter validation code with features that can only ever be used for testing (testnet or regtest). Removing that test-only code makes the mempool logic less painful to understand and easier to reason about when changed or refactored in the future.

a5bca13 Bugfix: Include <memory> for std::unique_ptr (Luke Dashjr)
Pull request description:
Not sure why all these includes were missing, but it's breaking builds for some users:

The blockmaxsize option was marked as deprecated in V0.15.1, and code
was added to convert provided blockmaxsize into blockmaxweight. However,
this code was incorrectly implemented, and blockmaxsize was silently
ignored.
No users have complained about blockmaxsize being ignored, so just
remove it in V0.17.
Transaction selection for mining tracks ancestor feerates that are
modified based on transactions that have already been selected. This
commit de-duplicates the code so that the ancestor feerate sorting used
by the mempool can also be directly applied to the miner.
* This removes block-size-limiting code in favor of GBT clients
doing the limiting themselves (if at all).
* -blockmaxsize is deprecated and only used to calculate an implied
blockmaxweight, addressing confusion from multiple users.
* getmininginfo's currentblocksize return value was returning
garbage values, and has been removed, also removing a
GetSerializeSize call in some block generation inner loops and
potentially addressing some performance edge cases.

This changes the logging categories to boolean flags instead of strings.
This simplifies the acceptance testing by avoiding accessing a scoped
static thread local pointer to a thread local set of strings. It
eliminates the only use of boost::thread_specific_ptr outside of
lockorder debugging.
This change allows log entries to be directed to multiple categories
and makes it easy to change the logging flags at runtime (e.g. via
an RPC, though that isn't done by this commit.)
It also eliminates the fDebug global.
Configuration of unknown logging categories now produces a warning.
