6eaa00fe20test: clarify submitBlock() mutates the template (Sjors Provoost)862bd43283mining: ensure witness commitment check in submitBlock (Sjors Provoost)00d1b6ef4bdoc: clarify UpdateUncommittedBlockStructures (Sjors Provoost) 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.

src/node/
The src/node/ directory contains code that needs to access node state
(state in CChain, CBlockIndex, CCoinsView, CTxMemPool, and similar
classes).
Code in src/node/ is meant to be segregated from code in
src/wallet/ and src/qt/, to ensure wallet and GUI
code changes don't interfere with node operation, to allow wallet and GUI code
to run in separate processes, and to perhaps eventually allow wallet and GUI
code to be maintained in separate source repositories.
As a rule of thumb, code in one of the src/node/,
src/wallet/, or src/qt/ directories should avoid
calling code in the other directories directly, and only invoke it indirectly
through the more limited src/interfaces/ classes.
This directory is at the moment
sparsely populated. Eventually more substantial files like
src/validation.cpp and
src/txmempool.cpp might be moved there.
