Merge #17154: wallet: Remove return value from CommitTransaction
9e95931865 [wallet] Remove `state` argument from CWallet::CommitTransaction (John Newbery)
d1734f9a3b [wallet] Remove return value from CommitTransaction() (John Newbery)
b6f486a02b [wallet] Add doxygen comment to CWallet::CommitTransaction() (John Newbery)
8bba91b22d [wallet] Fix whitespace in CWallet::CommitTransaction() (John Newbery)

Pull request description:

  `CommitTransaction()` returns a bool to indicate success, but since commit
  b3a7410 (#9302) it only returns true, even if the transaction was not
  successfully broadcast. This commit changes CommitTransaction() to return
  void.

  All dead code in `if (!CommitTransaction())` branches has been removed.

  Two additional commits fix up the idiosyncratic whitespace in `CommitTransaction` and add a doxygen comment for the function.

Internal c++ interfaces

The following interfaces are defined here:

  • Chain — used by wallet to access blockchain and mempool state. Added in #14437, #14711, #15288, and #10973.

  • ChainClient — used by node to start & stop Chain clients. Added in #14437.

  • Node — used by GUI to start & stop bitcoin node. Added in #10244.

  • Wallet — used by GUI to access wallets. Added in #10244.

  • Handler — returned by handleEvent methods on interfaces above and used to manage lifetimes of event handlers.

  • Init — used by multiprocess code to access interfaces above on startup. Added in #10102.

The interfaces above define boundaries between major components of bitcoin code (node, wallet, and gui), making it possible for them to run in different processes, and be tested, developed, and understood independently. These interfaces are not currently designed to be stable or to be used externally.
