Pull request description:
[Reopening #28676 here as a new PR, because GitHub is slow to load the page making it hard to scroll through and see comments. Also, that PR was originally opened with a prototype implementation which has changed significantly with the introduction of `TxGraph`.]
This is an implementation of the [cluster mempool proposal](https://delvingbitcoin.org/t/an-overview-of-the-cluster-mempool-proposal/393).
This branch implements the following observable behavior changes:
- Maintains a partitioning of the mempool into connected clusters (via the `txgraph` class), which are limited in vsize to 101 kvB by default, and limited in count to 64 by default.
- Each cluster is sorted ("linearized") to try to optimize for selecting highest-feerate-subsets of a cluster first
- Transaction selection for mining is updated to use the cluster linearizations, selecting highest feerate "chunks" first for inclusion in a block template.
- Mempool eviction is updated to use the cluster linearizations, selecting lowest feerate "chunks" first for removal.
- The RBF rules are updated to: (a) drop the requirement that no new inputs are introduced; (b) change the feerate requirement to instead check that the feerate diagram of the mempool will strictly improve; (c) replace the direct conflicts limit with a directly-conflicting-clusters limit.
- The CPFP carveout rule is eliminated (it doesn't make sense in a cluster-limited mempool)
- The ancestor and descendant limits are no longer enforced.
- New cluster count/cluster vsize limits are now enforced instead.
- Transaction relay now uses chunk feerate comparisons to determine the order that newly received transactions are announced to peers.
Additionally, the cached ancestor and descendant data are dropped from the mempool, along with the multi_index indices that were maintained to sort the mempool by ancestor and descendant feerates. For compatibility (eg with wallet behavior or RPCs exposing this), this information is now calculated dynamically instead.

For the coinbase vTxFees used a dummy value of -nFees. This
value was never returned by the RPC or used in a test.
Similarly the fist vTxSigOpsCost entry was calculated from
the dummy coinbase transaction.

Pull request description:
* This PR attempts to fix the duplicate coinbase weight reservation issue we currently have.
* Fixes#21950
We reserve 4000 weight units for coinbase transaction in `DEFAULT_BLOCK_MAX_WEIGHT`
7590e93bc7/src/policy/policy.h (L23)
And also reserve additional `4000` weight units in the default `BlockCreationOptions` struct.
7590e93bc7/src/node/types.h (L36-L40)
**Motivation**
- This issue was first noticed during a review here https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11100#discussion_r136157411)
- It was later reported in issue #21950.
- I also came across the bug while writing a test for building the block template. I could not create a block template above `3,992,000` in the block assembler, and this was not documented anywhere. It took me a while to realize that we were reserving space for the coinbase transaction weight twice.
---
This PR fixes this by consolidating the reservation to be in a single location in the codebase.
This PR then adds a new startup option `-blockreservedweight` whose default is `8000` that can be used to lower or increase the block reserved weight for block header, txs count, coinbase tx.

- The reserved weight of the coinbase transaction is an estimate and
may not reflect the exact value; it can be lower.
- It should be clear that `currentblockweight` includes the reserved coinbase transaction weight.
whereas `currentblocktx` does not account for the coinbase transaction count.
- Also clarify `m_last_block_num_txs` and `m_last_block_weight`
Before bip94 there was an assumption that the minimum permitted
timestamp is GetMedianTimePast() + 1.
This commit splits a helper function out of UpdateTime() to
obtain the minimum time in a way that takes the
timewarp attack rule into account.
- The package feerates are ordered by the sequence in which
packages are selected for inclusion in the block template.
- The commit also tests this new behaviour.

Providing a script for the coinbase transaction is only done in test code
and for CPU solo mining.
Production miners use the getblocktemplate RPC which omits the coinbase
transaction entirely from its block template, leaving it to external (pool)
software to construct it.
A coinbase script can still be passed via BlockCreateOptions instead.
A temporary overload is added so that the test can be modified in the
next commit.
The `addPackageTxs` method of the `BlockAssembler` currently has access
to two mempool variables, as an argument and as a member. Clean this up
and clarify that they both are the same mempool instance by removing the
argument and instead only using the member variable in the method.

Rather than pass options individually to createNewBlock and then
combining them into BlockAssembler::Options, this commit introduces
BlockCreateOptions and passes that instead.
Currently there's only one option (use_mempool) but the next
commit adds more.

AddToBlock was called repeatedly from `addPackageTxs` where the constant value of `printpriority` is recalculated every time.
Since its behavior was changed in 400b151, I've named the variable accordingly.
This showed up during profiling of AssembleBlock, fetching it once in the constructor results in a measurable speed increase for many iterations.

This makes the options argument for BlockAssembler constructor mandatory,
dropping implicit use of ArgsManager. The caller i.e. the Mining
interface implementation now handles this.
In a future Stratum v2 change the Options object needs to be
mofified after arguments have been processed. Specifically
the pool communicates how many extra bytes it needs for
its own outputs (payouts, extra commitments, etc). This will need
to be substracted from what the user set as -blockmaxweight.
Such a change can be implemented in createNewBlock, after
ApplyArgsManOptions.
... and move them to where they are really needed.
This was found by IWYU:
txmempool.h should remove these lines:
- #include <random.h> // lines 29-29
- class CBlockIndex; // lines 43-43
- class Chainstate; // lines 45-45
Also, move the stdlib section to the right place. Can be reviewed with:
--color-moved=dimmed-zebra
Add Options as a member to BlockAssembler to avoid having to assign
all the options individually.
Additionally brings the struct more in line with how we typically
define default and ArgManager values, as e.g. with
ChainstateManager::Options and and CTxMemPool::Options

Pull request description:
Performance of block template building matters as miners likely want to be able to start mining on a block with transactions asap after a block is found. We would want to know if a mempool PR accidentally caused, for example, a 100x slowdown. An `AssembleBlock()` bench exists, but it operates on a mempool with 101 transactions, each with 0 ancestors or descendants and with the same fee. Adding a bench with a more complex mempool is useful because (1) it's more realistic (2) updating packages can potentially cause the algorithm to take a long time.

Allows us to test BlockAssembler on transactions without signatures or
mature coinbases (which is what PopulateMempool creates). Also means
that `TestBlockValidity()` is not included in the bench timing.
This allows us to both manually manipulate options and grab values from
ArgsManager (i.e. -blockmaxweight and -blockmintxfee config options)
when constructing BlockAssembler::Options. Prior to this change, the
only way to apply the config options is by ctoring BlockAssembler with
no options, which calls DefaultOptions().
...also adjust callers
Changes:
- In BlockAssembler::CreateNewBlock, we now only lock m_mempool->cs and
call addPackageTxs if m_mempool is not nullptr
- BlockAssembler::addPackageTxs now takes in a mempool reference, and is
annotated to require that mempool's lock.
- In TestChain100Setup::CreateBlock and generateblock, don't construct
an empty mempool, just pass in a nullptr for mempool
Since UpdatePackagesForAdded is a helper function that's only used in
addPackageTxs we can make it static and avoid the unnecessary interface
and in-header lock annotation.
SkipMapTxEntry is a short helper function that's only used in
addPackageTxs, we can just inline it, keep the comments, and avoid the
unnecessary interface and lock annotations.

Pull request description:
Came up while reviewing #24364, where some of us incorrectly assumed that we use the same fee deduction in `CTxMemPoolModifiedEntry::nModFeesWithAncestors` when first constructing an entry and in `update_for_parent_inclusion`.
Actually, the behavior is this: when a mempool entry's ancestor is included in the block template, we create a `CTxMemPoolModifiedEntry` for it, subtracting the ancestor's modified fees from `nModFeesWithAncestors`. If another ancestor is included, we update it again, but use the ancestor's _base_ fees instead.
I can't explain why we use `GetFee` in one place and `GetModifiedFee` in the other, but I'm quite certain we should be using the same one for both.
And should it be base or modified fees? Modified, otherwise the child inherits the prioritisation of the parent, but only until the parent gets mined. If we want prioritisation to cascade down to current in-mempool descendants, we should probably document that in the `prioritsetransaction` helpstring and implement it in `CTxMemPool::mapDeltas`, not as a quirk in the mining code?
Wrote a test in which a mempool entry has 2 ancestors, both prioritised, and both included in a block template individually. This test should fail without the s/GetFee/GetModifiedFee commit.

Given the low possibility of a reorg reverting the segwit soft fork,
there is no need to check whether segwit is active here. Also,
TestBlockValidity is run on the block template after it has been
created.
