Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#31196: Prune mining interface

c991cea1a0 Remove processNewBlock() from mining interface (Sjors Provoost)
9a47852d88 Remove getTransactionsUpdated() from mining interface (Sjors Provoost)
bfc4e029d4 Remove testBlockValidity() from mining interface (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  There are three methods in the mining interface that can be dropped. The Template Provider doesn't need them and other application should probably not use them either.

  1. `processNewBlock()` was added in 7b4d3249ce, but became unnecessary with the introduction of interfaces::BlockTemplate::submitSolution in 7b4d3249ce.

  Dropping it was suggested in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30200#issuecomment-2404460342

  2. `getTransactionsUpdated()`: this is used in the implementation of #31003 `waitFeesChanged`. It's not very useful generically because the mempool updates very frequently.

  3. `testBlockValidity()`: it might be useful for mining application to have a way to check the validity of a block template they modified, but the Stratum v2 Template Provider doesn't do that, and this method is a bit brittle (e.g. the block needs to build on the tip).
