ecaa786cc1 rpc: add signet_challenge field to getblockchaininfo and getmininginfo (Ash Manning)
Pull request description:
Signet challenges are currently only available via `getblocktemplate` RPC.
`getblockchaininfo` and `getmininginfo` both provide inadequate information to distinguish signets. Since these are the RPCs used to determine the current network, they should also provide the signet challenge for signets.
Test coverage is included in `test/functional/feature_signet.py`.

processNewBlock was added in 7b4d3249ce, but became unnecessary with the introduction of interfaces::BlockTemplate::submitSolution in 7b4d3249ce.
getTransactionsUpdated() is only needed by the implementation of waitFeesChanged() (not yet part of the interface).
Providing a script for the coinbase transaction is only done in test code
and for CPU solo mining.
Production miners use the getblocktemplate RPC which omits the coinbase
transaction entirely from its block template, leaving it to external (pool)
software to construct it.
A coinbase script can still be passed via BlockCreateOptions instead.
A temporary overload is added so that the test can be modified in the
next commit.

Having divergent behaviour on suggested pre-checks and checks for these functions is confusing to both developers and users and is a maintenance burden.
The rpc interface for ProcessNewBlock (submitblock) currently pre-checks if the block has a coinbase transaction and whether it has been processed before. While the current example binary for how to use the kernel library, bitcoin-chainstate, imitates these checks, the other interfaces do not.
The coinbase check is repeated again early during ProcessNewBlock. Pre-checking it may also shadow more fundamental problems with a block. In most cases the block header is checked first, before validating the transactions. Checking the coinbase first therefore masks potential issues with the header. Fix this by removing the pre-check.
Similary the duplicate checks are repeated early in the contextual checks of ProcessNewBlock. If duplicate blocks are detected much of their validation is skipped. Depending on the constitution of the block, validating the merkle root of the block is part of the more intensive workload when validating a block. This could be an argument for moving the pre-checks into block processing. In net_processing this would have a smaller effect however, since the block mutation check, which also validates the merkle root, is done before.
Testing spamming a node with valid, but duplicate unrequested blocks seems to exhaust a CPU thread, but does not seem to significantly impact keeping up with the tip. The benefits of adding these checks to net_processing are questionable, especially since there are other ways to trigger the more CPU-intensive checks without submitting a duplicate block. Since these DOS concerns apply even less to the RPC interface, which does not have banning mechanics built in, remove them too.
Finally, also remove the pre-checks from `bitcoin-chainstate.cpp`.

The duplicate checks are repeated early in the contextual checks of
ProcessNewBlock. If duplicate blocks are detected much of their
validation is skipped. Depending on the constitution of the block,
validating the merkle root of the block is part of the more intensive
workload when validating a block. This could be an argument for moving
the pre-checks into block processing. In net_processing this would have
a smaller effect however, since the block mutation check, which also
validates the merkle root, is done before.
A side effect of this change is that a duplicate block is persisted
again on disk even when pruning is activated. This is similar to the
behaviour with getblockfrompeer. Add a release note for this change in
behaviour.

ProcessNewBlock fails if an invalid duplicate block is passed in through
its call to AcceptBlock and AcceptBlockHeader. The failure in
AcceptBlockHeader makes AcceptBlock return early. This makes the
pre-check in submitblock redundant.

The pre-check was likely introduced on top of
ada0caa165 to fix UB in
GetWitnessCommitmentIndex in case a block's transactions are empty. This
code path could only be reached because of the call to
UpdateUncommittedBlockStructures in submitblock, but cannot be reached
through net_processing.
Add some functional test cases to cover the previous conditions that
lead to a "Block does not start with a coinbase" json rpc error being
returned.

An external program that uses the Mining interface may need quick access to some information in the block template, while it can wait a bit longer for the full raw transaction data.
This would be the case for a Stratum v2 Template Provider which needs to send a NewTemplate message (which doesn't include transactions) as quickly as possible.

Pull request description:
It is convenient to have a descriptor which specifies both receiving and change addresses in a single string. However, as discussed in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/17190#issuecomment-895515768, it is not feasible to use a generic multipath specification like BIP 88 due to combinatorial blow up and that it would result in unexpected descriptors.
To resolve that problem, this PR proposes a targeted solution which allows only a single pair of 2 derivation indexes to be inserted in the place of a single derivation index. So instead of two descriptor `wpkh(xpub.../0/0/*)` and `wpkh(xpub.../0/1/*)` to represent receive and change addresses, this could be written as `wpkh(xpub.../0/<0;1>/*)`. The multipath specifier is of the form `<NUM;NUM>`. Each `NUM` can have its own hardened specifier, e.g. `<0;1h>` is valid. The multipath specifier can also only appear in one path index in the derivation path.
This results in the parser returning two descriptors. The first descriptor uses the first `NUM` in all pairs present, and the second uses the second `NUM`. In our implementation, if a multipath descriptor is not provided, a pair is still returned, but the second element is just `nullptr`.
The wallet will not output the multipath descriptors (yet). Furthermore, when a multipath descriptor is imported, it is expanded to the two descriptors and each imported on its own, with the second descriptor being implicitly for internal (change) addresses. There is no change to how the wallet stores or outputs descriptors (yet).
Note that the path specifier is different from what was proposed. It uses angle brackets and the semicolon because these are unused characters available in the character set and I wanted to avoid conflicts with characters already in use in descriptors.

The following bitcoind parameters / RPC calls missed the "testnet4"

- `getblockchaininfo` RPC, "chain" result
- `getmininginfo` RPC, "chain" result
Rather than pass options individually to createNewBlock and then
combining them into BlockAssembler::Options, this commit introduces
BlockCreateOptions and passes that instead.
Currently there's only one option (use_mempool) but the next
commit adds more.

The goal of interfaces is to eventually run in their own process,
so we can't use EXCLUSIVE_LOCKS_REQUIRED in their declaration.
However TestBlockValidaty will crash (in its call to ConnectBlock)
if the tip changes from under the proposed block.
Have the testBlockValidity implementation hold the lock instead,
and non-fatally check for this condition.
Set tip at the start of the function and only update it for a long poll.
Additionally have getTipHash return an optional, so the
caller can explicitly check that a tip exists.

Pull request description:
Remove `fees.h`, `errors.h`, and `spanparsing.h` from the util library. Specifically:
- Move `Split` functions from `util/spanparsing.h` to `util/string.h`, using `util` namespace for clarity.
- Move remaining spanparsing functions to `script/parsing.h` since they are used for descriptor and miniscript parsing.
- Combine `util/fees.h` and `util/errors.h` into `common/messages.h` so there is a place for simple functions that generate user messages to live, and these functions are not part of the util library.
Motivation for this change is that the util library is a dependency of the kernel, and we should remove functionality from util that shouldn't be called by kernel code or kernel applications. These changes should also improve code organization and make functions easier to discover. Some of these same moves are (or were) part of #28690, but did not help with code organization, or made it worse, so it is better to move them and clean them up in the same PR so code only has to change one time.

There are no changes to behavior. Changes in this commit are all additions, and
are easiest to review using "git diff -U0 --word-diff-regex=." options.
Motivation for this change is to keep util functions with really generic names
like "Split" and "Join" out of the global namespace so it is easier to see
where these functions are defined, and so they don't interfere with function
overloading, especially since the util library is a dependency of the kernel
library and intended to be used with external code.
The key module's functionality is not used by the kernel library, but
currently kernel users are still required to initialize the key module's
`secp256k1_context_sign` global as part of the `kernel::Context` through
`ECC_Start`.
fa09451f8e Add lint check for bitcoin-config.h include IWYU pragma (MarcoFalke)
dddd40ba82 scripted-diff: Add IWYU pragma keep to bitcoin-config.h includes (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
The `bitcoin-config.h` includes have issues:
* The header is incompatible with iwyu, because symbols may be defined or not defined. So the `IWYU pragma: keep` is needed to keep the include when a symbol is not defined on a platform. Compare the previous discussion in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29408#issuecomment-1948959711
* Guarding the includes by `HAVE_CONFIG_H` is verbose and brittle. Now that all build config dependencies have been removed from low level headers, the benefits are questionable, and the guard can be removed. The linter could also be tricked by guarding the include by `#if defined(HAVE_C0NFIG_H)` (`O` replaced by `0`).

The RPC documentation for `getblockchaininfo`, `getmininginfo` and
`getnetworkinfo` states that "warnings" returns "any network and
blockchain warnings". In practice, only a single warning is returned.
Fix that by returning all warnings as an array.
As a side benefit, cleans up the GetWarnings() logic.
