e285e691b7 test: Fix list index out of range error in feature_bip68_sequence.py (zaidmstrr)
Pull request description:
Fixes [#32334](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/32334)
The test `feature_bip68_sequence.py` fails with `IndexError: list index out of range` error due to a mismatch between the number of inputs requested (at random) and the number of UTXOs available. The error is reproducible with the randomseed:
```
$ ./build/test/functional/feature_bip68_sequence.py --randomseed 6169832640268785903
```
This PR adds a valid upper bound to randomly select the inputs.

Pull request description:
This PR adds the IPC equivalent of the `getblocktemplate` RPC in `proposal` mode.
In order to do so it has `TestBlockValidity` return error reasons as a string instead of `BlockValidationState`. This avoids complexity in IPC code for handling the latter struct.
The new Mining interface method is used in `miner_tests`.
It's not used by the `getblocktemplate` and `generateblock` RPC calls, see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31981#discussion_r2096473337
The `inconclusive-not-best-prevblk` check is moved from RPC
code to `TestBlockValidity`.
Test coverage is increased by `mining_template_verification.py`.
Superseedes #31564
## Background
### Verifying block templates (no PoW)
Stratum v2 allows miners to generate their own block template. Pools may wish (or need) to verify these templates. This typically involves comparing mempools, asking miners to providing missing transactions and then reconstructing the proposed block.[^0] This is not sufficient to ensure a proposed block is actually valid. In some schemes miners could take advantage of incomplete validation[^1].
The Stratum Reference Implementation (SRI), currently the only Stratum v2 implementation, collects all missing mempool transactions, but does not yet fully verify the block.[^2]. It could use the `getblocktemplate` RPC in `proposal` mode, but using IPC is more performant, as it avoids serialising up to 4 MB of transaction data as JSON.
(although SRI could use this PR, the Template Provider role doesn't need it, so this is _not_ part of #31098)

Pull request description:
When attempting to sign a transaction involving an external signer, if the device isn't connected we throw an `std::runtime_error`. This prevents the (mainly GUI) code that's actually supposed to handle this case from running.
This PR returns a `PSBTError::EXTERNAL_SIGNER_NOT_FOUND` instead of throwing.
The first commit is a refactor to have `GetExternalSigner()` return a `util::Result<ExternalSigner>` so the caller can decide how to handle the error. There are two other places where call `GetExternalSigner()` which this PR doesn't change (which I think is fine there).

Pull request description:
In the functional test framework, determining a (w)txid for a `CTransaction` instance is currently rather confusing and footgunny due to inconsistent naming/interfaces (see table below) and statefulness involved. This PR aims to improve that by:
* removing the (w)txid caching mechanism, in order to avoid the need to call additional rehashing functions (`.rehash()`/`.calculate_sha256()`, see first two commits and https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32050#discussion_r1993286997). This change in theory decreases the performance, as the involved serialization and hashing involved might be called more often than previously, but I couldn't find a functional test where this leads to a measurable run-time increase on my machine.
* introduce consistent naming that shows the type of the returned txid, i.e. hex string vs. test-framework-internal representation [currently integers] (see remaining commits)
Summary table showing (w)txid determaination before/after this PR:
| Task | master | PR |
|:-----------------------|:-----------------------|:-------------|
| get TXID (hex string) | `.rehash()` / `.hash`[1] | `.txid_hex` |
| get TXID (integer) | `.sha256`[1] | `.txid_int` |
| get WTXID (hex string) | `.getwtxid()` | `.wtxid_hex` |
| get WTXID (integer) | `.calc_sha256(True)` | `.wtxid_int` |
Unfortunately, most renames can't be done with a scripted-diff, as the property names (`.hash`, `.sha256`) are also used for blocks and other message types. The PR is rather invasive and touches a lot of files, but I think it's worth to do it, also to make life easier for new contributors. Future tasks like e.g. doing the same overhaul for block (header) objects or getting rid of the integer representation (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32050) become easier should become easier after this one.

f16c8c67bf tests: Expand HTTP coverage to assert libevent behavior (Matthew Zipkin)
Pull request description:
These commits are cherry-picked from #32061 and part of a project to [remove libevent](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/31194).
This PR only adds functional tests to `interface_http` to cover some HTTP server behaviors we inherit from libevent, in order to maintain those behaviors when we replace libevent with our own HTTP server.
1. Pipelining: The server must respond to requests from a client in the order in which they were received [RFC 7230 6.3.2](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7230#section-6.3.2)
2. `-rpcservertimeout` config option which sets the amount of time the server will keep an idle client connection alive
3. "Chunked" Transfer-Encoding: Allows a client to send a request in pieces, without the `Content-Length` header [RFC 7230 4.1](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7230#section-4.1)

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.
Rather than txids (represented by the fields `.sha256` and `.hash`)
being stateful, simply compute them on-the-fly. This ensures that
the correct values are always returned and takes the burden of
rehashing from test writers, making the code shorter overall.
In a first step, the fields are kept at the same name with @property
functions as drop-in replacements, for a minimal diff. In later commits,
the names are changed to be more descriptive and indicating the return
type of the txid.

Pull request description:
Retains the `-datacarrier*` args, marks them as deprecated, and does not require another startup argument for multiple OP_RETURN outputs.
If a user has set `-datacarriersize` the value is "budgeted" across all seen OP_RETURN output scriptPubKeys. In other words the total script bytes stays the same, but can be spread across any number of outputs. This is done to not introduce an additional argument to support multiple outputs.
I do not advise people use the option with custom arguments and it is marked as deprecated to not mislead as a promise to offer it forever. The argument itself can be removed in some future release to clean up the code and minimize footguns for users.

12ff4be9c7 test: ensure -rpcallowip is compatible with RFC4193 (Matthew Zipkin)
c02bd3c187 config: Explain RFC4193 and CJDNS interaction in help and init error (Matthew Zipkin)
f728b6b111 init: Configure reachable networks before we start the RPC server (Matthew Zipkin)
Pull request description:
Closes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/32433
`MaybeFlipIPv6toCJDNS()` relies on `g_reachable_nets` to distinguish between CJDNS addresses and other IPv6 addresses. In particular, [RFC4193](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4193#section-3.1) address or "Unique Local Address" with the L-bit unset also begins with the `fc` prefix. #32433 highlights a use case for these addresses that have nothing to do with CJDNS.
On master we don't parse init flags like `-cjdnsreachable` until *after* the HTTP server has started, causing conflicts with `-rpcallowip` because CJDNS doesn't support subnets.
This PR ensures that `NET_CJDNS` is only present in the reachable networks list if set by `-cjdnsreachable` *before* `-rpcallowip` is checked. If it is set all `fc` addresses are assumed to be CJDNS, can not have subnets, and can't be set for `-rpcallowip`.
I also noted this specific parameter interaction in the init help as well as the error message if configured incorrectly.
This can be tested locally:
`bitcoind -regtest -rpcallowip=fc00:dead:beef::/64 -rpcuser=u -rpcpassword=p`
On master this will just throw an error that doesn't even mention IPv6 at all.
On the branch, this will succeed and can be tested by adding the ULA to a local interface.
On linux: `sudo ip -6 addr add fc00:dead:beef::1/64 dev lo`
On macos: `sudo ifconfig lo0 inet6 fc00:dead:beef::1/128 add`
then: `curl -v -g -6 --interface fc00:dead:beef::1 u:p@[::1]:18443 --data '{"method":"getblockcount"}'`
If the `rpcallowip` option is removed, the RPC request will fail to authorize.
Finally, adding `-cjdnsreachable` to the start up command will throw an error and specify the incompatibility:
> RFC4193 is allowed only if -cjdnsreachable=0.

Pull request description:
[BIP325](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0325.mediawiki) mentions the following rule:
> In the special case where an empty solution is valid (ie scriptSig and scriptWitness are both empty) this additional commitment can optionally be left out. This special case is to allow non-signet-aware block generation code to be used to test a custom signet chain where the challenge is trivially true.
Such a signet can be created using e.g. `-signetchallenge=51` (`OP_TRUE`). However `contrib/signet/miner` won't omit the commitment.
This PR improves the miner by skipping the PSBT for known trivial scripts (just `OP_TRUE` and trivial pushes for now). This prevents it from appending the 4 byte signet header to the witness commitment, as allowed by the above rule.

Previously the script would fail with `PSBT signing failed`, making it difficult to mine. This is no longer the case.

Pull request description:
Instead of failing during initialization and shutting down the app when encountering a legacy wallet, skip loading the wallet and notify the user accordingly.
This allows users to access migration functionalities without needing to manually remove the wallet from settings.json or resort to using the bitcoin-wallet utility.
This means that GUI users will be able to use the migration button, and bitcoin-cli users will be able to call the migratewallet RPC directly after init.

getaddressinfo, listunspent, listtransactions, listsinceblock, and
gettransaction all include parent_desc(s). Make sure that these are
consistent with each other, as well as being in normalized form.
Datacarrier output script sizes and output counts are now
uncapped by default.
To avoid introducing another startup argument, we modify the
OP_RETURN accounting to "budget" the spk sizes.
If a user has set a custom default, this results in that
budget being spent over the sum of all OP_RETURN outputs'
scripts in the transaction, no longer capping the number
of OP_RETURN outputs themselves. This should allow a
superset of current behavior while respecting the passed
argument in terms of total arbitrary data storage.

Accordingly the test fails if I put a sleep in `msg_type == NetMsgType::HEADERS` processing: In this case, `node1` and `node0` do not hear about the new block, the sync still passes because they are in sync with each other, and later on in the `test_input_confs_control` subtest, `node1` would generate a forked block instead of building on the previous one, leading to test failure.
Haven't seen this in the CI, but I ran into it on an experimental branch.

Some users really seem to care about this. While it shouldn't matter much, the diff is so trivial that it is probably worth doing.

One could also consider to split the field into two dedicated ones (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/28847#issuecomment-1807115357), but this is left for a more involved follow-up and may also be controversial.

The current test directly uses invalidatblock to trigger
mempool re-entry of transactions. Unfortunately, the
behavior doesn't match what a real reorg would look like. As
a result you get surprising behavior such as the mempool
descendant chain limits being exceeded, or if a fork is
greater than 10 blocks deep, evicted block transactions stop
being submitted back into in the mempool.
Fix this by preparing an empty fork chain, and then
continuing with the logic, finally submitting the fork chain
once the rest of the test is prepared. This triggers a more
typical codepath.
Also, extend the descendant limit to 100, like ancestor
limit.

Pull request description:
Intended to make bitcoin command line features more discoverable and allow installing new multiprocess binaries in libexec/ instead of bin/ so they don't cause confusion.
Idea and implementation of this were discussed in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/30983.
---
Initial implementation of this feature is deliberately minimal so the UX can evolve in response to feedback and there are not too many details to debate and discuss in a single PR. But many improvements are possible or planned:
- Adding manpage and bash completions.
- Showing nicer error messages that detect if an executable isn't installed and suggest how to fix [(comment)](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31375#discussion_r2073194474)
- Showing wrapper command lines in subcommand in help output [(comment)](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31375#discussion_r2077800405). This could be done conditionally as suggested in the comment or be unconditional.
- Showing wrapper command lines in subcommand error output. There is a bitcoin-cli error pointed out in [(comment)](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31375#discussion_r2091152243) that is needlessly confusing.
- Integrating help so `bitcoin help subcommand` invokes `bitcoin subcommand -h`. `bitcoin -h subcommand` should also be supported and be equivalent [(comment)](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31375#discussion_r2093116725)
- Adding support for `bitcoin-util` subcommands. Ideal interface would probably be more like `bitcoin grind` not `bitcoin util grind` but this has been punted for now. Supporting subcommands directly would require some ArgsManager modifications
- Adding a dedicated python functional test for the wrapper. Right now there is some CI coverage by setting the `BITCOIN_CMD` variable, but this doesn't cover things like the help output and version output, and support for different directory layouts.
- Better `--multiprocess` (`-m`) / `--monolithic` (`-M`) default selection. Right now, default is monolithic but it probably makes sense to chose more intelligently depending on whether -ipc options are enabled and what binaries are available.
- Maybe parsing `bitcoin.conf` and supporting options to control wrapper behavior like custom locations or preferences or aliases.
- Better command command line usability. Allow combining short options like (`-ah`). Allow fuzzy matching of subcommands or suggestions if you misspell. (suggested by stickies in review club)
- Not directly related to this PR but `bitcoin-cli named` implementation used by the wrapper should do a better job disambiguating named arguments from base64 arguments ending in = as pointed out in [(comment)](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31375#discussion_r2091886628)
