a50d9e6c0b8e8144d3deec58ec2e3449ba081151 rpcwallet: default include_watchonly to true for watchonly wallets (William Casarin)
Pull request description:
Right now it's a bit annoying to deal with watchonly wallets, many rpc commands have an `include_watchonly` argument that needs to be explicitly set.
Wallets created with `createwallet` can have a `disable_private_keys` parameter, for those wallets we already know that they are watchonly, so there's no reason to have to explicitly ask for it for every command. Instead we check this wallet flag when the `include_watchonly` parameter isn't set.

Bitcoin Core
Setup
Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.
To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.
Running
The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.
Unix
Unpack the files into a directory and run:
bin/bitcoin-qt(GUI) orbin/bitcoind(headless)
Windows
Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.
macOS
Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
