Pull request description:
This is split out from #18531 to just touch the RPC methods in server. Description from the main pr:
### Motivation
RPCArg names in the rpc help are currently only used for documentation. However, in the future they could be used to teach the server the named arguments. Named arguments are currently registered by the `CRPCCommand`s and duplicate the RPCArg names from the documentation. This redundancy is fragile, and has lead to errors in the past (despite having linters to catch those kind of errors). See section "bugs found" for a list of bugs that have been found as a result of the changes here.
### Changes
The changes here add an assert in the `CRPCCommand` constructor that the RPCArg names are identical to the ones in the `CRPCCommand`.
### Future work
> Here or follow up, makes sense to also assert type of returned UniValue?
Sure, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. I am going to submit any further works as follow-ups, including:
* Removing the CRPCCommand arguments, now that they are asserted to be equal and thus redundant
* Removing all python regex linters on the args, now that RPCMan can be used to generate any output, including the cli.cpp table
* Auto-formatting and sanity checking the RPCExamples with RPCMan
* Checking passed-in json in self-check. Removing redundant checks
* Checking returned json against documentation to avoid regressions or false documentation
* Compile the RPC documentation at compile-time to ensure it doesn't change at runtime and is completely static
### Bugs found
* The assert identified issue #18607
* The changes itself fixed bug #19250

Pull request description:
This is another intermediate part of the Coinstats Index (tracked in #18000).
Sjors suggested [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18000#issuecomment-641423019) that the part of the changes in #19145 that don't rely on the new `hash_type` muhash, i.e. that are for `hash_type=none`, could be merged separately from everything involving muhash. So these changes are extracted from #19145 here and can be merged without any other requirements.
Building the index with no UTXO set hash is still valuable because `gettxoutsetinfo` can still be used to audit the `total_amount` for example. By itself this PR is not a huge improvement, `hash_type=none` is speeding up `gettxoutsetinfo` by about 10%, but it enables the implementation of an index on top of it in a follow-up and that means large parts of the index code of Coinstats Index can be merged while reviews for the hashing algorithm might take longer.

- Move the decision whether to translate an error message to where it is
defined. This simplifies call sites: no more `InitError(Untranslated(...))`.
- Make all functions in `util/error.h` consistently return a
`bilingual_str`. We've decided to use this as error message type so
let's roll with it.
This has no functional changes: no messages are changed, no new
translation messages are defined.
Don't take two redundant arguments in `serviceFlagToStr()`.
As a side effect this fixes an issue introduced in
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18165 due to which the GUI could
print something like `UNKNOWN[1033] & UNKNOWN[1033] & UNKNOWN[2^10]`
instead of `NETWORK & WITNESS`.

cea91a1e40 Bugfix: GUI: Use unsigned long long type to avoid implicit conversion of MSB check (Luke Dashjr)
Pull request description:
Side effect: this results in the RPC showing unknown service bits as "UNKNOWN[n]" like the GUI.
Note that there is no common mask-to-`vector<string>` function because both GUI and RPC would need to iterate through it to convert to their desired target formats.

fa5b1f067f rpc: Document all aliases for second arg of getblock (MarcoFalke)
fa86a4bbfc rpc: Rename first arg of generateblock RPC to "output" (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
This fixes a bug found with #18531:
* Currently the named argument for `generateblock` is documented as `address/descriptor`, but the server only accepts a named argument of `address`. Fix it by changing the name to `output` for both the documentation and the server code. Also, add tests to prove the server understands the new name `output`.
* Unrelated to that, there have been a bunch of aliases in the server code that are not present in the source code of the documentation. Fix that by adding the alias to the source code of the documentation. Only the first alias is displayed in the rendered documentation. Also, add tests to prove the server actually understands all aliases.
