The first command creates a regular expression for matching all bitcoin-config.h symbols in the following form: ^(?!//).*(AC_APPLE_UNIVERSAL_BUILD|BOOST_PROCESS_USE_STD_FS|...|_LARGE_FILES). It was generated with:
./autogen.sh && printf '^(?!//).*(%s)' $(awk '/^#undef/ {print $2}' src/config/bitcoin-config.h.in | paste -sd "|" -)

The second command holds a list of files and directories that should not be processed. These include subtree directories as well as some crypto files that already get their symbols through the makefile.

The third command checks for missing bitcoin-config headers in .cpp files and adds the header if it is missing.

The fourth command checks for missing bitcoin-config headers in .h files and adds the header if it is missing.

The fifth command checks for unneeded bitcoin-config headers in sources files and removes the header if it is unneeded.

Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#26691: Update secp256k1 subtree to libsecp256k1 version 0.2.0
2022917223 Add secp256k1_selftest call (Pieter Wuille)
3bfca788b0 Remove explicit enabling of default modules (Pieter Wuille)
4462cb0498 Adapt to libsecp256k1 API changes (Pieter Wuille)
9d47e7b71b Squashed 'src/secp256k1/' changes from 44c2452fd3..21ffe4b22a (Pieter Wuille)

Pull request description:

  Now that libsecp256k1 has a release (https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2022-December/021271.html), update the subtree to match it.

  The changes themselves are not very impactful for Bitcoin Core, but include:
  * It's no longer needed to specify whether contexts are for signing or verification or both (all contexts support everything), so make use of that in this PR.
  * Verification operations can use the static context now, removing the need for some infrastructure in pubkey.cpp to make sure a context exists.
  * Most modules are now enabled by default, so we can drop explicit enabling for them.
  * CI improvements (in particular, MSVC and more recent MacOS)
  * Introduction of an internal int128 type, which has no effect for GCC/Clang builds, but enables 128-bit multiplication in MSVC, giving a ~20% speedup there (but still slower than GCC/Clang).
  * Release process changes (process documentation, changelog, ...).

7d1c77f0a1 Merge 1ba24fe9b3 into merged_master (Elements PR ElementsProject/elements#1002)
This forward-ports the new Taproot sighash but does not fix a couple
22-blocked TODOs related to the MissingDataBehavior enum. Should be fixed
in a followup commit.

One nontrivial change I had to make was feeding the genesis hash to SignTransaction
(the "global" one in script/sign.cpp) so that it could correctly compute
the sighash at signing time.

22cf380984 Merge a993a7c675 into merged_master (Elements PR #960)
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.

3820090bd6 Make all SignatureChecker explicit about missing data
Remove the implicit MissingDataBehavior::ASSERT_FAIL in the
*TransationSignatureChecker constructors, and instead specify
it explicit in all call sites:
* Test code uses ASSERT_FAIL
* Validation uses ASSERT_FAIL (through CachingTransactionSignatureChecker)
  (including signet)
* libconsensus uses FAIL, matching the existing behavior of the
  non-amount API (and the extended required data for taproot validation
  is not available yet)
* Signing code uses FAIL

78c312c983 Replace current benchmarking framework with nanobench
This replaces the current benchmarking framework with nanobench [1], an
MIT licensed single-header benchmarking library, of which I am the
autor. This has in my opinion several advantages, especially on Linux:

* fast: Running all benchmarks takes ~6 seconds instead of 4m13s on
  an Intel i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz.

* accurate: I ran e.g. the benchmark for SipHash_32b 10 times and
  calculate standard deviation / mean = coefficient of variation:

  * 0.57% CV for old benchmarking framework
  * 0.20% CV for nanobench

  So the benchmark results with nanobench seem to vary less than with
  the old framework.

* It automatically determines runtime based on clock precision, no need
  to specify number of evaluations.

* measure instructions, cycles, branches, instructions per cycle,
  branch misses (only Linux, when performance counters are available)

* output in markdown table format.

* Warn about unstable environment (frequency scaling, turbo, ...)

* For better profiling, it is possible to set the environment variable
  NANOBENCH_ENDLESS to force endless running of a particular benchmark
  without the need to recompile. This makes it to e.g. run "perf top"
  and look at hotspots.

Here is an example copy & pasted from the terminal output:

* Adds support for asymptotes

  This adds support to calculate asymptotic complexity of a benchmark.
  This is similar to #17375, but currently only one asymptote is
  supported, and I have added support in the benchmark `ComplexMemPool`
  as an example.

  Usage is e.g. like this:

  ```
  ./bench_bitcoin -filter=ComplexMemPool -asymptote=25,50,100,200,400,600,800
  ```

  This runs the benchmark `ComplexMemPool` several times but with
  different complexityN settings. The benchmark can extract that number
  and use it accordingly. Here, it's used for `childTxs`. The output is
  this:

  | complexityN |               ns/op |                op/s |    err% |          ins/op |          cyc/op |    IPC |     total | benchmark

Pull request description:

  While investigating what mechanisms are possible to maximize the per-opcode verification cost of scripts, I noticed that the logic for determining whether a particular opcode is to be executed is O(n) in the nesting depth. This issue was also pointed out by Sergio Demian Lerner in https://bitslog.wordpress.com/2017/04/17/new-quadratic-delays-in-bitcoin-scripts/, and this PR implements a variant of the O(1) algorithm suggested there.

  This is not a problem currently, because even with a nesting depth of 100 (the maximum possible right now due to the 201 ops limit), the slowdown caused by this on my machine is around 70 ns per opcode (or 0.25 s per block) at worst, far lower than what is possible with other opcodes.

  This PR mostly serves as a proof of concept that it's possible to avoid it, which may be relevant in discussions around increasing the opcode limits in future script versions. Without it, the execution time of scripts can grow quadratically with the nesting depth, which very quickly becomes unreasonable.

  This improves upon #14245 by completely removing the `vfExec` vector.
