Pull request description:
This is a sub-feature taken out of the original proposal for ephemeral anchors #30239
This PR makes *spending* of `OP_1 <0x4e73>` (i.e. `bc1pfeessrawgf`) standard. Creation of this output type is already standard.
Any future witness output types are considered relay-standard to create, but not to spend. This preserves upgrade hooks, such as a completely new output type for a softfork such as BIP341. It also gives us a bit of room to use a new output type for policy uses.
This particular sized witness program has no other known use-cases (https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/a/110664/17078), s it affords insufficient cryptographic security for a secure commitment to data, such as a script or a public key. This makes this type of output "keyless", or unauthenticated.
As a witness program, the `scriptSig` of the input MUST be blank, by BIP141. This helps ensure txid-stability of the spending transaction, which may be required for smart contracting wallets. If we do not use segwit, a miner can simply insert an `OP_NOP` in the `scriptSig` without effecting the result of program execution.
An additional relay restriction is to disallow non-empty witness data, which an adversary may use to penalize the "honest" transactor when RBF'ing the transaction due to the incremental fee requirement of RBF rules.
The intended use-case for this output type is to "anchor" the transaction with a spending child to bring exogenous CPFP fees into the transaction package, encouraging the inclusion of the package in a block. The minimal size of creation and spending of this output makes it an attractive contrast to outputs like `p2sh(OP_TRUE)` and `p2wsh(OP_TRUE)` which
are significantly larger in vbyte terms.
Combined with TRUC transactions which limits the size of child transactions significantly, this is an attractive option for presigned transactions that need to be fee-bumped after the fact.

Bitcoin Core integration/staging tree
For an immediately usable, binary version of the Bitcoin Core software, see https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/.
What is Bitcoin Core?
Bitcoin Core connects to the Bitcoin peer-to-peer network to download and fully validate blocks and transactions. It also includes a wallet and graphical user interface, which can be optionally built.
Further information about Bitcoin Core is available in the doc folder.
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.
