This is the 43-commit descriptor wallet PR. It was remarkably easy to merge, given
its magnitude. With this commit Elements supports importing Bitcoin descriptors
and deriving (Bitcoin) addresses, though of course it does not support blinding
yet. That is a post-rebase project.
The material changes were:
1. Changing constants in the tests (super annoying but nothing surprising)
2. Adding a missing "skip if this coin is not ours" check in src/script/sign.cpp
which was causing us to erroneously remove existing witnesses from transactions.
This wasn't a problem before this commit since we would only ask specific
scriptpubkeymans to sign, and we'd never ask any to sign inputs we didn't
own. Andy simplified the logic here to always try every scriptpubkeyman,
which means they have to play a bit more nicely with each other.
Other than that, this was a big diff with many conflicts but literally all of
them were "we both added code" and the resolution was to take both sides.
96cb597325 gui: Avoid redundant tx status updates (Russell Yanofsky)
Pull request description:
This PR is part of the [process separation project](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/projects/10).
In `TransactionTablePriv::index`, avoid calling `interfaces::Wallet::tryGetTxStatus` if the status is up to date as of the most recent `NotifyBlockTip` notification. Store height from the most recent notification in a new `ClientModel::cachedNumBlocks` variable in order to check this.
This avoids floods of IPC traffic from `tryGetTxStatus` with #10102 when there are a lot of transactions. It might also make the GUI a little more efficient even when there is no IPC.

UI improvements:
- update remaining GUI wallet labels and tooltips from passwords to passphrases
- improve grammar of labels in askpassphrase dialog and WalletController::closeWallet
