107d4178d9versionbits: update VersionBitsCache doc comment to match current behaviour (Antoine Poinsot)94e3ac0b21doc: release notes and bips doc update for #34779 (Antoine Poinsot)1d5240574aqa: test we don't warn for ignored unknown version bits deployments (Antoine Poinsot)f802edf57cversionbits: Limit live activation params and activation warnings per BIP323 (Anthony Towns) Pull request description: This implements https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/pull/2116, which repurposes 24 version bits as extra nonce space for miners rather than soft fork deployment coordination. 24 bits allows a miner to perform up to 72 PH before needing a fresh job from its controller. The current 16 bits in use by miners only allow up to 280 TH, which [apparently led some ASIC designers to start rolling the timestamp field](https://github.com/bitaxeorg/ESP-Miner/pull/1553#issuecomment-3937736319) on their beefier machines. Mailing list discussion available [here](https://gnusha.org/pi/bitcoindev/6fa0cb45-37d6-4b41-9ff8-03730fd96d6e@mattcorallo.com/). A previous shot at this is https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/13972 (with a smaller extranonce space). This change only affects the warning logic.

Test library
This contains files for the test library, which is used by the test binaries (unit tests, benchmarks, fuzzers, gui tests).
Generally, the files in this folder should be well-separated modules. New code should be added to existing modules or (when in doubt) a new module should be created.
The utilities in here are compiled into a library, which does not hold any state. However, the main file setup_common
defines the common test setup for all test binaries. The test binaries will handle the global state when they
instantiate the BasicTestingSetup (or one of its derived classes).
