Pull request description:

  The `RPCHelpMan::{Arg,MaybeArg}` helpers avoid copying (potentially) large strings by returning them as `const std::string*` (`MaybeArg`) or `const std::string&` (`Arg`). For `MaybeArg`, this has the not-so-nice effect that users need to deal with raw pointers, potentially also requiring new functions (e.g. [`EnsureUniqueWalletName` ](d127b25199 (diff-d8bfcfbdd5fa7d5c52d38c1fe5eeac9ce5c5a794cdfaf683585140fa70a32374R32))) with raw pointers being implemented.

  This PR aims to improve on this by returning a trivially copyable `std::string_view` (`Arg`) or `std::optional<std::string_view>` (`MaybeArg`), modernizing the interface without introducing any additional copying overhead. In doing so, it also generalizes whether we return by value or by pointer/reference using `std::is_trivially_copyable_v` instead of defining the types manually.

  In cases where functions currently take a `const std::string&` and it would be too much work / touching consensus logic to update them (`signmessage.cpp`), a `std::string` copy is made (which was already happening anyway).

  The last 2 commits increase usage of the `{Arg,MaybeArg}<std::string_view>` helpers, and could be dropped/pruned if anything turns out to be controversial - I just think it's a nice little cleanup.
