Some PRs ago (in #19937) the bitcoin-util binary was added, which we
didn't notice and didn't rename to elements-util. This commit adds
some tests for it, which made me notice it ... so rename it here.
I'm gonna be honest, I largely just rewrote this one. It adds a "fee" field
to the RPC transaction output, which I replaced with a feemap which is
directly extracted from the transaction rather than computed implicitly
from inputs - outputs.
Removed a functional test that fee computations become impossible without
chain data, since in Elements there is no chain data lookup involved.
1) add a new sane "address" field (for outputs that have an
identifiable address, which doesn't include bare multisig)
2) with -deprecatedrpc: leave "reqSigs" and "addresses" intact
(with all weird/wrong behavior they have now)
3) without -deprecatedrpc: drop "reqSigs" and "addresses" entirely,
always.
Previously, when iterating over bytes of the generated salt to construct
a hex string, only one character would be outputted when the byte is
less than 0x10. Meaning that for a 16 byte salt, the hex string might be
less than 32 characters and collisions would occur.
This change:
* adds a length check to ParseHashStr, appropriate given its use to populate
a 256-bit number from a hex str.
* allows the caller to handle the failure, which allows for the more
appropriate JSONRPCError on failure in prioritisetransaction rpc
To avoid:
$ make check

When extra entropy is not specified by the caller, CKey::Sign will
now always create a signature that has a low R value and is at most
70 bytes. The resulting signature on the stack will be 71 bytes when
the sighash byte is included.
Using low R signatures means that the resulting DER encoded signature
will never need to have additional padding to account for high R
values.
Just calling atoi to convert strings to integers does not check for
valid integers very thoroughly; in particular, it just ignores
everything starting from the first non-numeral character. Even a string
like "foo" is fine and silently returns 0.
This meant that bitcoin-tx would not fail if such a string was passed in
various places where an integer is expected (like the locktime or an
input/output index); this means that it would, for instance, silently
accept a typo and interpret it in an unexpected way.
In this change, we use ParseInt64 for parsing strings to integers,
which actually verifies that the full string is valid as number.
New tests in the bitcoin-util-test cover the new error paths.
