- Four new options are available for configuring the maximum number of
messages that ZMQ will queue in memory (the "high water mark") before
dropping additional messages. The default value is 1,000, the same as
was used for previous releases. See the [ZMQ
documentation](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/zmq.md#usage)
for details.
- The `enablebip61` option (introduced in Bitcoin Core 0.17.0) is
used to toggle sending of BIP 61 reject messages. Reject messages have no use

P2SH-P2WPKH, and P2SH-P2WSH. Requests for P2WSH and P2SH-P2WSH accept
an additional `witnessscript` parameter.
- The `importmulti` RPC now returns an additional `warnings` field for
each request with an array of strings explaining when fields are being
ignored or are inconsistent, if there are any.
- The `getaddressinfo` RPC now returns an additional `solvable` boolean
field when Bitcoin Core knows enough about the address's scriptPubKey,
optional redeemScript, and optional witnessScript in order for the
wallet to be able to generate an unsigned input spending funds sent to
that address.
- The `getaddressinfo`, `listunspent`, and `scantxoutset` RPCs now
return an additional `desc` field that contains an output descriptor
containing all key paths and signing information for the address
(except for the private key). The `desc` field is only returned for
`getaddressinfo` and `listunspent` when the address is solvable.
- The `importprivkey` RPC will preserve previously-set labels for
addresses or public keys corresponding to the private key being
imported. For example, if you imported a watch-only address with the
label "cold wallet" in earlier releases of Bitcoin Core, subsequently
importing the private key would default to resetting the address's
label to the default empty-string label (""). In this release, the
previous label of "cold wallet" will be retained. If you optionally
specify any label besides the default when calling `importprivkey`,
the new label will be applied to the address.
