fad0cf6f26 refactor: Use std::ranges::equal in GetNetworkForMagic (MarcoFalke)
fadf0a7e15 refactor: Remove Span operator==, Use std::ranges::equal (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
`std::span` removed the comparison operators, so it makes sense to remove them for the `Span` "backport" as well. Using `std::ranges::equal` also has the benefit that some `Span` temporary constructions can now be dropped.
This is required to move from `Span` toward `std::span`.

49f9b645ea refactor: Testnet4 - Replace uint256S("str") -> uint256{"str"} (Hodlinator)
Pull request description:
Ran scripted-diff from 2d9d752e4f:
```
sed -i --regexp-extended -e 's/\buint256S\("(0x)?([^"]{64})"\)/uint256{"\2"}/g' $(git grep -l uint256S)
```
Follow-up to Testnet4 introduction #29775 which overlapped with work on `uint256` `consteval` ctor #30560 (the latter includes the scripted-diff commit).
Going forward `uint256{}` should be used for constants instead of `uint256S()`.

1610643c8b chainparams: add mainnet assumeutxo param at height 840_000 (Sjors Provoost)
Pull request description:
This adds snapshot parameters for mainnet block 840,000.
You can generate the snapshot yourself using `./contrib/devtools/utxo_snapshot.sh` or download my torrent:
* torrent: `magnet:?xt=urn:btih:596c26cc709e213fdfec997183ff67067241440c&dn=utxo-840000.dat&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.bitcoin.sprovoost.nl%3A6969`
It would be a good idea to test:
1. That you can produce the same snapshot file, sha256 sum:

74a04f9e7a testnet: Introduce Testnet4 (Fabian Jahr)
Pull request description:
To supplement the [ongoing conceptual discussion about a testnet reset](https://groups.google.com/g/bitcoindev/c/9bL00vRj7OU/m/9yCPo3uUBwAJ) I have drafted a move to v4 including a fix to the difficulty adjustment mechanism, which was part of the motivation that started the discussion.
Conceptual considerations:
- The conceptual discussion about doing a testnet4 or softforking the fix into testnet3 is outside of the scope of this PR and I would ask reviewers to contribute their opinions on this on the ML instead. However, I am happy to adapt this PR to a softfork change on testnet3 if there is consensus for that instead.
- The difficulty adjustment fix suggested here touches the `CalculateNextWorkRequired` function and uses the same logic used in `GetNextWorkRequired` to find the last previous block that was not mined with difficulty 1 under the exceptionf. An alternative fix briefly mentioned on the mailing list by Jameson Lopp would be to "restrict the special testnet minimum difficulty rule so that it can't be triggered on the block right before a difficulty retarget". That would also fix the issue but I find my suggestion here a bit more elegant.

fa359255fe Add -blocksxor boolean option (MarcoFalke)
fa7f7ac040 Return XOR AutoFile from BlockManager::Open*File() (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Currently the *.dat files in the blocksdir store the data received from remote peers as-is. This may be problematic when a program other than Bitcoin Core tries to interpret them by accident. For example, an anti-virus program or other program may scan them and move them into quarantine, or delete them, or corrupt them. This may cause Bitcoin Core to fail a reorg, or fail to reply to block requests (via P2P, RPC, REST, ...).
Fix this, similar to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6650, by rolling a random XOR pattern over the dat files when writing or reading them.
Obviously this can only protect against programs that accidentally and unintentionally are trying to mess with the dat files. Any program that intentionally wants to mess with the dat files can still trivially do so.
The XOR pattern is only applied when the blocksdir is freshly created, and there is an option to disable it (on creation), so that people can disable it, if needed.

chainparams.cpp - workaround for MSVC bug triggering C7595 - Calling consteval constructors in initializer lists fails, but works on GCC (13.2.0) & Clang (17.0.6).
The globals setup by the function calls when creating a new kernel
context only need to be setup once. Calling them multiple times may be
wasteful and has no apparent benefit.
Besides kernel users potentially creating multiple contexts, this change
may also be useful for tests creating multiple setups.

3333bae9b2 tidy: modernize-use-equals-default (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Prior to C++20, `modernize-use-equals-default` could have been problematic because it could turn a non-aggregate into an aggregate. The risk would be that aggregate initialization would be enabled where the author did not intend to enable it.
With C++20, aggregate for those is forbidden either way. (https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2018/p1008r1.pdf)
So enabled it for code clarity, consistency, and possibly unlocking compiler optimizations. See https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/modernize/use-equals-default.html

Instead of having separate warning functions (and globals) for each
different warning that can be raised, encapsulate this logic into
a single class and allow to (un)set any number of warnings.
Introduces behaviour change:
- the `-alertnotify` command is executed for all
`KernelNotifications::warningSet` calls, which now also covers the
`LARGE_WORK_INVALID_CHAIN` warning.
- previously, warnings were returned based on a predetermined order,
e.g. with the "pre-release test build" warning always first. This
is no longer the case, and Warnings::GetMessages() will return
messages sorted by the id of the warning.
Removes warnings.cpp from kernel.
429ec1aaaa refactor: Rename CTransaction::nVersion to version (Ava Chow)
27e70f1f5b consensus: Store transaction nVersion as uint32_t (Ava Chow)
Pull request description:
Given that the use of a transaction's nVersion is always as an unsigned int, it doesn't make sense to store it as signed and then cast it to unsigned everywhere it is used and displayed.
Since a few alternative implementations have recently been revealed to have made an error with this signedness that would have resulted in consensus failure, I think it makes sense for us to just make this always unsigned to make it clear that the version is treated as unsigned. This would also help us avoid future potential issues with signedness of this value.
I believe that this is safe and does not actually change what transactions would or would not be considered both standard and consensus valid. Within consensus, the only use of the version in consensus is in BIP68 validation which was already casting it to uint32_t. Within policy, although it is used as a signed int for the transaction version number check, I do not think that this change would change standardness. Standard transactions are limited to the range [1, 2]. Negative numbers would have fallen under the < 1 condition, but by making it unsigned, they are still non-standard under the > 2 condition.
Unsigned and signed ints are serialized and unserialized the same way so there is no change in serialization.

d5a631b959 validation: improve performance of CheckBlockIndex (Martin Zumsande)
32c80413fd bench: add benchmark for checkblockindex (Martin Zumsande)
Pull request description:
`CheckBlockIndex() ` are consistency checks that are currently enabled by default on regtest.
The function is rather slow, which is annoying if you
* attempt to run it on other networks, especially if not fully synced
* want to generate a long chain on regtest and see block generation slow down because you forgot to disable `-checkblockindex` or don't know it existed.
One reason why it's slow is that in order to be able to traverse the block tree depth-first from genesis, it inserts pointers to all block indices into a `std::multimap` - for which inserts and lookups become slow once there are hundred thousands of entries.
However, typically the block index is mostly chain-like with just a few forks so a multimap isn't really needed for the most part. This PR suggests to store the block indices of the chain ending in the best header in a vector instead, and store only the rest of the indices in a multimap. This does not change the actual consistency checks that are being performed for each index, just the way the block index tree is stored and traversed.
This adds a bit of complication to make sure each block is visited (note that there are asserts that check it), making sure that the two containers are traversed correctly, but it speeds up the function considerably:
On master, a single invocation of `CheckBlockIndex` takes ~1.4s on mainnet for me (4.9s on testnet which has >2.4 million blocks).
With this branch, the runtime goes down to ~0.27s (0.85s on testnet).This is a speedup by a factor ~5.

Pull request description:
When restarting `bitcoind` during an ongoing reindex without setting the `-reindex` flag again, the block and coins db is left intact, but any data from the optional indexes is discarded. While not a bug per se, wiping the data again is
wasteful, both in terms of having to write it again, as well as potentially leading to longer startup times. So keep the index data instead when continuing a prior reindex.
Also includes a bugfix and smaller code cleanups around the reindexing code. The bug was introduced in b47bd95920: "kernel: De-globalize fReindex".

In order to ensure that the change of nVersion to a uint32_t in the
previous commit has no effect, rename nVersion to version in this commit
so that reviewers can easily spot if a spot was missed or if there is a
check somewhere whose semantics have changed.
Drop confusing kernel options:
BlockManagerOpts::reindex
ChainstateLoadOptions::reindex
ChainstateLoadOptions::reindex_chainstate
Replacing them with more straightforward options:
ChainstateLoadOptions::wipe_block_tree_db
ChainstateLoadOptions::wipe_chainstate_db
Having two options called "reindex" which did slightly different things
was needlessly confusing (one option wiped the block tree database, and
the other caused block files to be rescanned). Also the previous set of
options did not allow rebuilding the block database without also
rebuilding the chainstate database, when it should be possible to do
those independently.

- A newly introduced utxo set magic
- A version number
- The network magic
- The block height
