ReserveDestination::SetBlindingPubKey was removed since it was only used
in one place (in Wallet::GetNewChangeDestination), and after this change
it was silently breaking blinded change addresses by somehow replacing
the destination with CNoDestination...
This allows us to verify the descriptor ID on the descriptors
unit tests in different software versions without requiring to
use the entire DescriptorScriptPubKeyMan machinery.
Note:
The unit test changes are introduced after the bugfix commit
but this commit + the unit test commit can be cherry-picked
on top of the v25 branch to verify IDs correctness. IDs must
be the same for v25 and after the bugfix commit.
cdba23db35 wallet: Document blank flag use in descriptor wallets (Ryan Ofsky)
43310200dc wallet: Ensure that the blank wallet flag is unset after imports (Andrew Chow)
e9379f1ffa rpc, wallet: Include information about blank flag (Andrew Chow)
Pull request description:
The `blank` wallet flag is used to indicate that the wallet intentionally does not have any keys, scripts, or descriptors, and it prevents the automatic generation of those things for such a wallet. Once the wallet contains any of those data, it is unnecessary, and possibly incorrect, to have `blank` set. This PR fixes a few places where this was not properly happening. It also adds a test for this unset behavior.

Code review ACK cdba23db35. Only change since last review is dropping the commit which makes createwallet RPC set BLANK flag automatically when DISABLE_PRIVATE_KEYS flag is set

To avoid wasting processing power, we can skip blocks that occurred
before the wallet's creation time, since these blocks are guaranteed
not to contain any relevant wallet data.
This has direct implications (an speed improvement) on the underlying
blockchain synchronization process as well.
The reason is that the validation interface queue is limited to
10 tasks per time. This means that no more than 10 blocks can be
waiting for the wallet(s) to be processed while we are synchronizing
the chain (activating the best chain to be more precise).
Which can be a bottleneck if blocks arrive and are processed faster
from the network than what they are processed by the wallet(s).

bd13dc2f46 Switch hardened derivation marker to h in descriptors (Sjors Provoost)
Pull request description:
This makes it easier to handle descriptor strings manually, especially when importing from another Bitcoin Core wallet.
For example the `importdescriptors` RPC call is easiest to use `h` as the marker: `'["desc": ".../0h/..."]'`, avoiding the need for escape characters. With this change `listdescriptors` will use `h`, so you can copy-paste the result, without having to add escape characters or switch `'` to 'h' manually.
Both markers can still be parsed.
The `hdkeypath` field in `getaddressinfo` is also impacted by this change, except for legacy wallets. The latter is to prevent accidentally breaking ancient software that uses our legacy wallet.

This makes it easier to handle descriptor strings manually. E.g. an RPC call that takes an array of descriptors can now use '["desc": ".../0h/..."]'.
Both markers can still be parsed. The default for new descriptors is changed to h. In normalized form h is also used. For private keys the chosen marker is preserved in a round trip.
The hdkeypath field in getaddressinfo is also impacted by this change.
