Drop confusing kernel options:
BlockManagerOpts::reindex
ChainstateLoadOptions::reindex
ChainstateLoadOptions::reindex_chainstate
Replacing them with more straightforward options:
ChainstateLoadOptions::wipe_block_tree_db
ChainstateLoadOptions::wipe_chainstate_db
Having two options called "reindex" which did slightly different things
was needlessly confusing (one option wiped the block tree database, and
the other caused block files to be rescanned). Also the previous set of
options did not allow rebuilding the block database without also
rebuilding the chainstate database, when it should be possible to do
those independently.
The src/node/ directory contains code that needs to access node state
(state in CChain, CBlockIndex, CCoinsView, CTxMemPool, and similar
classes).
Code in src/node/ is meant to be segregated from code in
src/wallet/ and src/qt/, to ensure wallet and GUI
code changes don't interfere with node operation, to allow wallet and GUI code
to run in separate processes, and to perhaps eventually allow wallet and GUI
code to be maintained in separate source repositories.
As a rule of thumb, code in one of the src/node/,
src/wallet/, or src/qt/ directories should avoid
calling code in the other directories directly, and only invoke it indirectly
through the more limited src/interfaces/ classes.
This directory is at the moment
sparsely populated. Eventually more substantial files like
src/validation.cpp and
src/txmempool.cpp might be moved there.
