Use context managers to destroy block templates. Previously, block templates
were not being destroyed before disconnecting because the destroy coroutines
were called but never awaited. It's not necessary to explicitly destroy the
templates since they will get garbage collected asynchronously, but it's good
to destroy them to make the test more predictable, and to make the destroy
calls that are present actually do something.
This change also removes `await waitnext` expressions without changing
behavior, because the previous code was misleading about what order waitNext
calls were executed.
This change is easiest to review ignoring whitespace.

Pull request description:
When an IPC client requests a new block template via the Mining interface, we hold on to its `CBlock`. That way when they call `submitSolution()` we can modify it in place, rather than having to reconstruct the full block like the `submitblock` RPC does.
Before this commit however we forgot to invalidate `m_checked_witness_commitment`, which we should since the client brings a new coinbase.
This would cause us to accept an invalid chaintip.
Fix this and add a test to confirm that we now reject such a block. As a sanity check, we add a second node to the test and confirm that will accept our mined block.
As first noticed in #33374 the IPC code takes the coinbase as provided, unlike the `submitblock` RPC which calls `UpdateUncommittedBlockStructures()` and adds witness commitment to the coinbase if it was missing.
Although that could have been an alternative fix, we instead document that IPC clients are expected to provide the full coinbase including witness commitment.

dcb56fd4cb interfaces: add interruptWait method (ismaelsadeeq)
Pull request description:
This is an attempt to fix#33575 see the issue for background and the usefulness of this feature.
This PR uses one of the suggested approaches: adding a new `interruptWaitNext()` method to the mining interface.
It introduces a new boolean variable, `m_interrupt_wait`, which is set to `false` when the thread starts waiting. The `interruptWaitNext()` method wakes the thread and sets `m_interrupt_wait` to `true`.
Whenever the thread wakes up, it checks whether the wait was aborted; if so, it simply set ` m_interrupt_wait ` to false and return`nullptr`.
This PR also adds a functional test for the new method. The test uses `asyncio` to spawn two tasks and attempts to ensure that the wait is executed before the interrupt by using an event monitor. It adds a 0.1-second buffer to ensure the wait has started executing.
If that buffer elapses without `waitNext` executing, the test will fail because a transaction is created after the buffer.

Code review ACK dcb56fd4cb, just tweaking semantics slightly since last review so if an `interruptWait` call is made shortly after a `waitNext` call it will reliably cause the `waitNext` call to return right away without blocking, even if the `waitNext` call had not begun to execute or wait yet.

PR #33374 proposed a new Mining IPC method applySolution() which
could be used by clients to obtain the reconstructed block for
inspection, especially in the case of a rejected block.
However it was pointed out during review that submitBlock() modified
the template CBlock in place, so the client can just call getBlock()
and no new method is needed.
This commit adds a test to document that (now intentional) behavior.
When an IPC client requests a new block template via the Mining interface,
we hold on to its CBlock. That way when they call submitSolution() we can
modify it in place, rather than having to reconstruct the full block like
the submitblock RPC does.
Before this commit however we forgot to invalidate
m_checked_witness_commitment, which we should since the client brings a
new coinbase.
This would cause us to accept an invalid chaintip.
Fix this and add a test to confirm that we now reject such a block.
As a sanity check, we add a second node to the test and confirm that will
accept our mined block.
Note that the IPC code takes the coinbase as provided, unlike the
submitblock RPC which calls UpdateUncommittedBlockStructures() and adds
witness commitment to the coinbase if it was missing.
Although that could have been an alternative fix, we instead document that
IPC clients are expected to provide the full coinbase including witness
commitment.
Block template fees are calculated by looping over new_tmpl->vTxFees
and return (early) once the fee_threshold is exceeded.
This left an edge case when the mempool is empty, which this commit
fixes and adds a test for. It does so by using std::accumulate instead
of manual loops.
Also update interface_ipc.py to account for the new behavior.
