1c612b274b1587c43ee6e6a486aed653b9ca5f70 [script] Update signet getcoins.py for custom network (NikhilBartwal)
Pull request description:
Currently, using the getcoins.py with a custom signet executes successfully and shows the transfer of 0.001 testBTC as complete, however for obvious reasons, it should not. In fact, upon verification it does not actually execute the transaction, but rather gives the output that it did, as shown below which can be misleading:
```
[nikhilb@nikhil-PC bitcoin]$ echo $datadir
/home/nikhilb/signet-custom
[nikhilb@nikhil-PC bitcoin]$ contrib/signet/getcoins.py -- -datadir=$datadir
Payment of 0.00100000 BTC sent with txid dd22c7d996e95f3e5baf20f73140d517ff48f1b26d0e4fefd61e3c37991b8f86
[nikhilb@nikhil-PC bitcoin]$ bitcoin-cli -datadir=$datadir getrawtransaction dd22c7d996e95f3e5baf20f73140d517ff48f1b26d0e4fefd61e3c37991b8f86
error code: -5
error message:
No such mempool or blockchain transaction. Use gettransaction for wallet transactions.
[nikhilb@nikhil-PC bitcoin]$ bitcoin-cli -datadir=$datadir gettransaction dd22c7d996e95f3e5baf20f73140d517ff48f1b26d0e4fefd61e3c37991b8f86
error code: -5
error message:
Invalid or non-wallet transaction id
```
This PR adds a sanity check for custom signet by comparing the current network's first block hash (the block after the genesis block) with global signet's respective block hash (since all signet networks share the same genesis block) and if a custom network is detected, the user is prompted to either work on the global signet or setup their own faucet.
The PR was checked to be working successfully, giving the output as below:
```
[nikhilb@nikhil-PC bitcoin]$ git checkout update_signet_getcoins

The global faucet cannot be used with a custom Signet network. Please use the global signet or setup your custom faucet for the same.
You can have a look here for setting up your own faucet: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Signet

What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is an experimental digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Bitcoin Core is the name of open source software which enables the use of this currency.
For more information read the original Bitcoin whitepaper.
License
Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.
Development Process
The master branch is regularly built (see doc/build-*.md for instructions) and tested, but it is not guaranteed to be
completely stable. Tags are created
regularly from release branches to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin Core.
The https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui repository is used exclusively for the development of the GUI. Its master branch is identical in all monotree repositories. Release branches and tags do not exist, so please do not fork that repository unless it is for development reasons.
The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.
Testing
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.
Automated Testing
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to
submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run
(assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running
and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.
There are also regression and integration tests, written
in Python.
These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py
The CI (Continuous Integration) systems make sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.
Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing
Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.
Translations
Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Bitcoin Core's Transifex page.
Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.
Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
