Bitcoin allocates 32M for signature caching by default, split
between a signature cache and a script validity cache (see
Core #10192). Since 0.14 we have added an additional 32M for
rangeproof caching *and* an additional 32M for surjectionproof
caching.
These cache entries cost a bit over 32 bytes, so these are room
for a million entries....or 4Gb of rangeproofs and 300M of
surjection proofs.
Presumably we did not intend to triple memory usage relative to
Core to deal with some champagne problem in which our mempool is
overfilled ten times with pure rangeproofs. So put the total
default cache size back to 32M. This should have no performance
hit under realistic circumstances and should reduce CI OOM failures.
On my system we now use 50M rather than 110M during the fedpeg
test; we still use 18M that Core does not by having three additional
global secp contexts (one in blind.cpp, one in pegins.cpp, one in
confidential_validation.cpp) but we can settle that in a future
commit.
Several conflicts in the C++ code related to the new `flags` parameter
to `CheckSignature` and the corresponding function being renamed upstream
to `CheckSignatureECDSA`.
Several conflicts in the test harness as Steven sorta pulled the new
upstream ECKey module into the Python code, and the actual upstream
code was slightly different. Also needed to update the feature_taproot
code to always use the non-RANGEPROOF sighash since dynafed is not
enabled in the Taproot test.
Also had to pull the `set_wif` method out of `ECKey` and inline it because
otherwise it triggers a "circular inclusion" error between script.py (which
would pull in `base58_to_bytes` from address.py) and address.py (which now
pulls in some taproot EC related stuff from script.py).
Noticed that #960 does not test the "sighash rangeproof flag set but no
witnesses" case.

Pull request description:
- support blocksigners specifying their own activation to make coordination a bit more flexible
- don't force fedpeg script to change in order to change the block signing script
Tree-SHA512: 8dd66440261f910b083f7ed461e1930c9380350e3648f6aca44726c39dcca3bb7e62c36d36ae56c2717827fbaee2b9046c6ce0b05441c1d8d1b54f3c284bc4d7
This allows the initial relaxed restriction on non-segwit fedpeg
programs to be extended as long as the fedpeg program is not changed
while the block signing parameters can be changed.
Since these chainstates are:
1. Also vulnerable to the race condition described in the previous
commit
2. Documented as having similar semantics as m_active_chainstate
we should also protect them with ::cs_main.

Pull request description:
Overall PR: #20158 (tree-wide: De-globalize ChainstateManager)
Note to reviewers:
1. This bundle may _apparently_ introduce usage of `g_chainman` or `::Chain(state|)Active()` globals, but these are resolved later on in the overall PR. [Commits of overall PR](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/20158/commits)
2. There may be seemingly obvious local references to `ChainstateManager` or other validation objects which are not being used in callers of the current function in question, this is done intentionally to **_keep each commit centered around one function/method_** to ease review and to make the overall change systematic. We don't assume anything about our callers. Rest assured that once we are considering that particular caller in later commits, we will use the obvious local references. [Commits of overall PR](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/20158/commits)
3. When changing a function/method that has many callers (e.g. `LookupBlockIndex` with 55 callers), it is sometimes easier (and less error-prone) to use a scripted-diff. When doing so, there will be 3 commits in sequence so that every commit compiles like so:
1. Add `new_function`, make `old_function` a wrapper of `new_function`, divert all calls to `old_function` to `new_function` **in the local module only**
2. Scripted-diff to divert all calls to `old_function` to `new_function` **in the rest of the codebase**
3. Remove `old_function`

c943282b5e validation: remove redundant check on pindex (jarolrod)
Pull request description:
This removes a redundant check on `pindex` being a `nullptr`. By the time we get to this step `pindex` is always a `nullptr` as the branch where it has been set would have already returned.

Note to reviewers: Since FindForkInGlobalIndex is always called with
::ChainActive() as its first parameter, it is possible to move
FindForkInGlobalIndex to CChainState and remove this const CChain&
parameter to instead use m_chain. However, it seems like the original
intention was for FindForkInGlobalIndex to work with _any_ chain, not
just the current active chain. Let me know if this should be changed.

This PR:
- gets rid of `boost::thread_group` in the `CCheckQueue` class
- allows thread safety annotation usage in the `CCheckQueue` class
- is alternative to #14464 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18710#issuecomment-616618525, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18710#issuecomment-617291612)
Also, with this PR (I hope) it could be easier to resurrect a bunch of brilliant ideas from #9938.

This removes a conditional that checks if pindex is equal to nullptr.
This check is redundant because the branch where pindex is set returns at an earlier time. Additionaly, The independence of the earlier and later pindex is made clearer.

In 0.21, we added unbroadcast txids to mempool.dat. Commit 9c8a55d
added a try-block to prevent throwing a "failed to deserialize mempool data"
error when a user upgrades from 0.21 to 0.22. This exception handling is no
longer useful, so now we can remove it.
4e28753f60 feestimator: encapsulate estimation file logic (Antoine Poinsot)

03bfeee957 interface: remove unused estimateSmartFee method from node (Antoine Poinsot)
Pull request description:
If the `blocksonly` mode is turned on after running with transaction
relay enabled for a while, the fee estimation will serve outdated data
to both the internal wallet and to external applications that might be
feerate-sensitive and make use of `estimatesmartfee` (for example a
Lightning Network node).
This has already caused issues (for example https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16840 (C-lightning), or https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/issues/2562 (LND)) and it seems prudent to fail rather than to give inaccurate values.
This fixes#16840, and closes#16890 which tried to fix the symptoms (RPC) but not the cause as mentioned by sdaftuar :
> If this is a substantial problem, then I would think we should take action to protect our own wallet users as well (rather than hide the results of what our fee estimation would do!).

This moves the CBlockPolicyEstimator to the NodeContext, which get rids
of two globals and allows us to conditionally create the
CBlockPolicyEstimator (and to remove a circular dep).
