The next commit requires an additional mainnet block which changes the difficulty.
Also fix a few minor mistakes in the test (suite):
- rename the create_coinbase retarger_period argument to halving_period. Before bitcoin#31583 this was hardcoded for regtest where these values are the same.
- drop unused fees argument from mine helper
Finally the CPU miner instructions for generating the alternative mainnet chain are expanded.

Using "block" or "mempool" as the prefix in place of "mandatory" or "non-mandatory" is clearer
to a user. "non-mandatory" was renamed into "mempool" as part of #33050. This takes care of the
other half of this renaming as a scripted diff.

sed -i 's/mandatory-script-verify/block-script-verify/g' $(git grep -l mandatory-script-verify)
-END VERIFY SCRIPT-
Previously, we would check failing input scripts twice when considering
a transaction for the mempool, in order to distinguish policy failures
from consensus failures. This allowed us both to provide a different
error message and to discourage peers for consensus failures. Because we
are no longer discouraging peers for consensus failures during tx relay,
and because checking a script can be expensive, only do this once.
Also renames non-mandatory-script-verify-flag error to
mempool-script-verify-flag-failed.
Do not discourage nodes even when they send us consensus invalid
transactions.
Because we do not discourage nodes for transactions we consider
non-standard, we don't get any DoS protection from this check in
adversarial scenarios, so remove the check entirely both to simplify the
code and reduce the risk of splitting the network due to changes in tx
relay policy.
Since the previous commit, CTransaction object calls to the
methods `.rehash()` and `.calc_sha256()` are effectively no-ops
if the returned value is not used, so we can just remove them.
Currently the per-tx sigops limit standardness check (bounded by
`MAX_STANDARD_TX_SIGOPS_COST`, throwing "bad-txns-too-many-sigops"
if exceeded) is only indirectly tested with the much higher per-block
consensus limit (`MAX_BLOCK_SIGOPS_COST`), i.e. an increase in the
limit would still pass all tests. Refine that by splitting up the invalid
tx template `TooManySigops` in a per-block and a per-tx one.
The involved functional tests taking use of these templates are
`feature_block.py` and `p2p_invalid_txs.py`.
This does not cause any issues, because CScript in the tests are const.
However, this change allows to enable the
"function-call-in-default-argument (B008)" lint rule.
A common issue that our fuzzers keep finding is that outpoints don't
exist in the non witness utxos. Instead of trying to track this down and
checking in various individual places, do the check early during
deserialization.
e.g. sh(addr(ADDR)) or sh(raw(HEX)) are invalid descriptors.
Making sh and wsh top level functions to return addr/raw descriptors when
the subscript inference fails.
The descriptor inference logic would previously always use a dummy
signing provider and would never analyze the witness script of a P2WSH
scriptPubKey.
Note even a valid Miniscript might not always be decodable from Script
without more contextual information (for instance the key preimage for a
pk_h).
b2aa9e8528 Add release note for MIN_STANDARD_TX_NONWITNESS_SIZE relaxation (Greg Sanders)
8c5b3646b5 Relax MIN_STANDARD_TX_NONWITNESS_SIZE to 65 non-witness bytes (Greg Sanders)
Pull request description:
Since the original fix was set to be a "reasonable" transaction to reduce allocations and the true motivation later revealed, it makes sense to relax this check to something more principled.
There are more exotic transaction patterns that could take advantage of a relaxed requirement, such as 1 input, 1 output OP_RETURN to burn a utxo to fees for CPFP purposes when change isn't practical.
Two changes could be accomplished:
1) Anything not 64 bytes could be allowed
2) Anything above 64 bytes could be allowed
In the Great Consensus Cleanup, suggestion (2)
was proposed as a consensus change, and is the simpler of the two suggestions. It would not allow an "empty" OP_RETURN but would reduce the required padding from 22 bytes to 5.
The functional test is also modified to test the actual case
we care about: 64 bytes

- Fix getblockstats for block height 0 which previously returned an error.
- Introduce alternative utxo_*_actual statistics which exclude unspendables: Genesis block, BIP30, unspendable outputs
- Update test data
- Explicitly test Genesis block results
The previous diff touched most files in ./test/, so bump the headers to
avoid having to touch them again for a bump later.

Pull request description:
PR #18788 (commit 08067aebfd) introduced functions to generate output scripts for various types. This PR replaces all manual CScript creations in the P2PKH, P2SH, P2WPKH, P2WSH formats with those helpers in order to increase readability and maintainability over the functional test codebase. The first commit fixes a bug in the wallet_util helper module w.r.t. to P2SH-P2WSH script creation (the result is not used in any test so far, hence it can still be seen as refactoring).
The following table shows a summary of the output script patterns tackled in this PR:
| Type | master branch | PR branch |
| ---------- | ------------- | ------------- |
| P2PKH | `CScript([OP_DUP, OP_HASH160, hash160(key), OP_EQUALVERIFY, OP_CHECKSIG])` | `key_to_p2pkh_script(key)` |
| | `CScript([OP_DUP, OP_HASH160, keyhash, OP_EQUALVERIFY, OP_CHECKSIG])` | `keyhash_to_p2pkh_script(keyhash)` |
| P2SH | `CScript([OP_HASH160, hash160(script), OP_EQUAL])` | `script_to_p2sh_script(script)` |
| P2WPKH | `CScript([OP_0, hash160(key)])` | `key_to_p2wpkh_script(key)` |
| P2WSH | `CScript([OP_0, sha256(script)])` | `script_to_p2wsh_script(script)` |
Note that the `key_to_...` helpers can't be used if an invalid key size (not 33 or 65 bytes) is passed, which is the case in some rare instances where the scripts still have to be created manually.
Possible follow-up ideas:
* further simplify by identifying P2SH-wrapped scripts and using `key_to_p2sh_p2wpkh_script()` and `script_to_p2sh_p2wsh_script()` helpers
* introduce and use `key_to_p2pk_script()` helper for P2PK scripts

This reject reason is triggered for non-coinbase transactions with
a coinbase-like outpoint, i.e. hash=0, n=0xffffffff.
Note that the invalid tx templates are currently used in the
functional tests feature_block.py and p2p_invalid_tx.py.
Now that we require Python 3.6+, we should be using variable type
annotations directly rather than # type: comments.
Also takes care of the discarded value issue in p2p_message_capture.py.
See: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/19509/files#r571674446.
Support for type hints was introduced in Python 3.5. Type hints make it easier to read and review code in my opinion. Also an IDE may discover a potential bug sooner. Yet, as PEP 484 says: "It should also be emphasized that Python will remain a dynamically typed language, and the authors have no desire to ever make type hints mandatory, even by convention."
Mypy is used in lint-python.sh to do the type checking. The package is standard so there is little chance that it will be abandoned. Mypy checks that type hints in source code are correct when they are not, it fails with an error.
