fa7bc9bbca fuzz: Fix wallet_bdb_parser 32-bit unhandled fseek error (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
`std::fseek` on 64-bit past the end of the file may work fine (the following read would fail). However, on 32-bit it may fail early.
Fix it, by ignoring the error, treating it similar to a read error.

436e88f433 bumpfee: ignore WALLET_INCREMENTAL_RELAY_FEE when user specifies fee rate (ismaelsadeeq)
Pull request description:
Fixes#26973
When using the `bumpfee` RPC and manually specifying `fee_rate`, there should be no requirement that the new fee must be at least the sum of the original fee and `incrementalFee` (maximum of `relayIncrementalFee` and `WALLET_INCREMENTAL_RELAY_FEE`).
This restriction should only apply when user did not specify `fee_rate`.
> because the GUI doesn't let the user specify the new fee rate yet (https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui/issues/647), it would be very annoying to have to bump 20 times to increment by 20 sat/vbyte.
The restriction should instead be the new fee must be at least the sum of the original fee and `incrementalFee` (`relayIncrementalFee`)

Pull request description:
Remove `fees.h`, `errors.h`, and `spanparsing.h` from the util library. Specifically:
- Move `Split` functions from `util/spanparsing.h` to `util/string.h`, using `util` namespace for clarity.
- Move remaining spanparsing functions to `script/parsing.h` since they are used for descriptor and miniscript parsing.
- Combine `util/fees.h` and `util/errors.h` into `common/messages.h` so there is a place for simple functions that generate user messages to live, and these functions are not part of the util library.
Motivation for this change is that the util library is a dependency of the kernel, and we should remove functionality from util that shouldn't be called by kernel code or kernel applications. These changes should also improve code organization and make functions easier to discover. Some of these same moves are (or were) part of #28690, but did not help with code organization, or made it worse, so it is better to move them and clean them up in the same PR so code only has to change one time.

Pull request description:
Fixing https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/28250#issuecomment-1674830104 and more.
Currently, redeem scripts longer than 520 bytes, which are technically valid under segwit rules, have flaws in the following processes:
1) The multisig creation process fails to deduce the output descriptor, resulting in the generation of an incorrect descriptor. Additionally, the accompanying user warning is also inaccurate.
2) The `signrawtransactionwithkey` RPC command fail to sign them.
3) The legacy wallet `addmultisigaddress` wrongly discards them.
The issue arises because most of these flows are utilizing the legacy spkm keystore, which imposes
the [p2sh max redeem script size rule](ded6873340/src/script/signingprovider.cpp (L160)) on all scripts. Which blocks segwit redeem scripts longer than
the max element size in all the previously mentioned processes (`createmultisig`, `addmultisigaddress`, and
`signrawtransactionwithkey`).
This PR fixes the problem, enabling the creation of multisig output descriptors involving more than 15 keys and
allowing the signing of these scripts, along with other post-segwit redeem scripts that surpass the 520-byte
p2sh limit.
Important note:
Instead of adding support for these longer redeem scripts in the legacy wallet, an "unsupported operation"
error has been added. The reasons behind this decision are:
1) The introduction of this feature brings about a compatibility-breaking change that requires downgrade
protection; older wallets would be unable to interact with these "new" legacy wallets.
2) Considering the ongoing deprecation of the legacy spkm, this issue provides another compelling
reason to transition towards descriptors.
Testing notes:
To easily verify each of the fixes, I decoupled the tests into standalone commits. So they can be
cherry-picked on top of master. Where `rpc_createmultisig.py` (with and without the `--legacy-wallet`
arg) will fail without the bugs fixes commits.
Extra note:
The initial commits improves the `rpc_createmultisig.py` test in many ways. I found this test very
antiquated, screaming for an update and cleanup.

Pull request description:
PR #26152 moved waste calculation into SelectionResult to be able to correct the waste score on basis of the bump_fee_group_discount for overlapping ancestries. This left two functions with largely overlapping purpose, where one was simply a wrapper of the other. This PR cleans up the overlap, and fixes the double-meaning of `change_cost` where the `GetChange()` function assumed that no change was created when `change_cost` was set to 0. This behavior was exploited in a bunch of tests, but is problematic, because a `change_cost` of 0 is permitted with custom settings for feerate and discard_feerate (i.e. when they’re both 0).

Both `GetSelectionWaste()` and `ComputeAndSetWaste()` now are part of
`SelectionResult`. Instead of `ComputeAndSetWaste()` being a wrapper for
`GetSelectionWaste()`, we combine them to a new function
`RecalculateWaste()`.
As I was combining the logic of the two functions, I noticed that
`GetSelectionWaste()` was making the odd assumption that the
`change_cost` being set to zero means that no change is created.
However, if we build transactions at a feerate of zero with the
`discard_feerate` also set to zero, we'd organically have a
`change_cost` of zero, even when we create change on a transaction.
This commit cleans up this duplicate meaning of `change_cost` and relies
on `GetChange()` to figure out whether there is change on basis of the
`min_viable_change` and whatever is left after deducting fees.
Since this broke a bunch of tests that relied on the double-meaning of
`change_cost` a bunch of tests had to be fixed.
d7707d9843 rpc: avoid copying into UniValue (Cory Fields)
Pull request description:
These are the simple (and hopefully obviously correct) copies that can be moves instead.
This is a follow-up from https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30094#issuecomment-2108751842
As it turns out, there are hundreds of places where we copy UniValues needlessly. It should be the case that moves are always preferred over copies, so there should be no downside to these changes.
willcl-ark, however, noticed that memory usage may increase in some cases. Logically this makes no sense to me. The only plausible explanation imo is that because the moves are faster, more ops/second occur in some cases.
This list of moves was obtained by changing the function signatures of the UniValue functions to accept only rvalues, then compiling and fixing them up one by one. There still exist many places where copies are being made. These can/should be fixed up, but weren't done here for the sake of doing the easy ones first.
I ran these changes through clang-tidy with `performance-move-const-arg` and `bugprone-use-after-move` and no bugs were detected (though that's obviously not to say it can be trusted 100%).
As stated above, there are still lots of other less trivial fixups to do after these including:
- Using non-const UniValues where possible so that moves can happen
- Refactoring code in order to be able to move a UniValue without introducing a use-after-move
- Refactoring functions to accept UniValues by value rather than by const reference

Split from #26596
This PR adds `BerkeleyRODatabase` which is an independent implementation of a BDB file parser. It provides read only access to a BDB file, and can therefore be used as a read only database backend for wallets. This will be used for dumping legacy wallet records and migrating legacy wallets without the need for BDB itself.
Wallettool's `dump` command is changed to use `BerkeleyRODatabase` instead of `BerkeleyDatabase` (and `CWallet` itself) to demonstrate that this parser works and to test it against the existing wallettool functional tests.

BerkeleyRODatabase is intended for use after BDB is removed, so it needs
to be able to read all of the records from a BDB file. Thus an
independent deserializer for BDB data files is implemented in it. This
deserializer is targeted towards the data files that Bitcoin Core
creates so it does not fully support all of BDB's features (e.g. other
database types, encryption, etc.).
There are no changes to behavior. Changes in this commit are all additions, and
are easiest to review using "git diff -U0 --word-diff-regex=." options.
Motivation for this change is to keep util functions with really generic names
like "Split" and "Join" out of the global namespace so it is easier to see
where these functions are defined, and so they don't interfere with function
overloading, especially since the util library is a dependency of the kernel
library and intended to be used with external code.
Add TransactionError to node namespace and include it directly instead of
relying on indirect include through common/messages.h
This is a followup to a previous commit which moved the TransactionError enum.
These changes were done in a separate followup just to keep the previous commit
more minimal and easy to review.
Move enum and message formatting functions to a common/messages header where
they should be more discoverable, and also out of the util library, so they
will not be a dependency of the kernel
The are no changes in behavior and no changes to the moved code.
Add separate PSBTError enum instead of reusing TransactionError enum for PSBT
operations, and drop unused error codes. The error codes returned by PSBT
operations and transaction broadcast functions mostly do not overlap, so using
an unified enum makes it harder to call any of these functions and know which
errors actually need to be handled.
Define PSBTError in the common library because PSBT functionality is
implemented in the common library and used by both the node (for rawtransaction
RPCs) and the wallet.
New node/types.h file is analagous to existing wallet/types.h and is a better
place to define simple node types that are shared externally with wallet and
gui code than the util library.
Motivation for this change is to completely remove util/error.h file currently
holding TransactionError in a followup commit.
Move util/message to common/signmessage so it is named more clearly, and
because the util library is not supposed to depend on other libraries besides
the crypto library. The signmessage functions use CKey, CPubKey, PKHash, and
DecodeDestination functions in the consensus and common libraries.
Implement ReadKey and HasKey of BerkeleyROBatch, and Next of BerkeleyROCursor.
Also adds the containers for records to BerkeleyRODatabase so that
BerkeleyROBatch will be able to access the records.
98570fe29b test: add coverage for parsing cryptographically invalid pubkeys (Sebastian Falbesoner)
c740b154d1 rpc: use `HexToPubKey` helper for all legacy pubkey-parsing RPCs (Sebastian Falbesoner)
100e8a75bf rpc: check and throw specific pubkey parsing errors in `HexToPubKey` (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
Parsing legacy public keys can fail for three reasons (in this order):
- pubkey is not in hex
- pubkey has an invalid length (not 33 or 65 bytes for compressed/uncompressed, respectively)
- pubkey is crytographically invalid, i.e. is not on curve (`CPubKey.IsFullyValid()` check)
Many RPCs currently perform these checks manually with different error messages, even though we already have a `HexToPubKey` helper. This PR puts all three checks in this helper (the length check was done on the call-sites before), adds specific error messages for each case, and consequently uses it for all RPCs that parse legacy pubkeys. This leads to deduplicated code and also to more consistent and detailed error messages for the user.
Affected RPC calls are `createmultisig`, `addmultisigaddress`, `importpubkey`, `importmulti`, `fundrawtransaction`, `walletcreatefundedpsbt`, `send` and `sendall`.
Note that the error code (-5 a.k.a. `RPC_INVALID_ADDRESS_OR_KEY`) doesn't change in any of the causes, so the changes are not breaking RPC API compatibility. Only the messages are more specific.
The last commits adds test coverage for the cryptographically invalid (not-on-curve) pubkey case which wasn't exercised before.

Due to a bug in the legacy wallet, the p2sh maximum script size limit is also imposed
on 'p2sh-segwit' and 'bech32' redeem scripts.
Although redeem scripts over MAX_SCRIPT_ELEMENT_SIZE bytes are technically valid for
segwit output types, we don't want to enable this feature in legacy wallets for the
following reasons:
1) It introduces a compatibility-breaking change requiring downgrade protection; older
wallets would be unable to interact with these "new" legacy wallets.
2) Considering the ongoing deprecation of the legacy spkm, this issue adds another
good reason to transition towards descriptors.
The multisig script generation process currently fails when
the user exceeds 15 keys, even when it shouldn't. The maximum
number of keys allowed for segwit redeem scripts (p2sh-segwit
and bech32) is 20 keys.
This is because the redeem script placed in the witness is not
restricted by the item size limit.
The reason behind this issue is the utilization of the legacy
p2sh redeem script restrictions on segwit ones. Redeem scripts
longer than 520 bytes are blocked from being inserted into the
keystore, which causes the signing process and the descriptor
inference process to fail.
This occurs because the multisig generation flow uses the same
keystore as the legacy spkm (FillableSigningProvider), which
contains the 520-byte limit.
6a8b2befea refactor: Avoid copying util::Result values (Ryan Ofsky)
834f65e824 refactor: Drop util::Result operator= (Ryan Ofsky)
Pull request description:
This PR just contains the first two commits of #25665.
It disables copying of `util::Result` objects because unnecessary copies are inefficient and not possible after #25665, which makes `util::Result` object move-only.
It disables the assignment operator and replaces it with an `Update()` method, because #25665 adds more information to `util::Result` objects (warning and error messages and failure values) and having an assignment operator that overwrites data instead of merging it would make it easy to accidentally erase existing information while trying to assign new information.

30a6c99935 rpc: access some args by name (stickies-v)
bbb31269bf rpc: add named arg helper (stickies-v)
13525e0c24 rpc: add arg helper unit test (stickies-v)
Pull request description:
Adds string overloads for the `RPCHelpMan::Arg` and `RPCHelpMan::MaybeArg` helpers to be able to access RPC arguments by name instead of index number. Especially in RPCs with a large number of parameters, this can be quite helpful.
Example usage:
```cpp
const auto action{self.Arg<std::string>("action")};
```
Most of the LoC is adding test coverage and documentation updates. No behaviour change.
An alternative approach to #27788 with significantly less overhaul.
