Specifically, it tries to recover from length-mismatches, recover from untrimmed whitespace, 0x-prefix and garbage at the end, instead of simply requiring exactly 64 hex-only characters. (see also https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30532) This PR removes `uint256S()` (and `uint160S()`) completely, with no non-test behaviour change. Specifically, the main changes in this PR are: - the (minimal) last non-test usage of `uint256S()` in `ParseHashV()` is removed without behaviour change, which can partially be verified by cherry-picking and/or modifying [this test commit](1f2b0fa86d)). - the test usage of `uint{160,256}S()` is removed, largely replacing it with `uint{160,256}::FromHex()` where applicable, potentially modifying the test by removing non-hex characters or dropping the test entirely if removing non-hex characters makes it redundant - the now unused `uint{160,256}S()` functions are removed completely. - unit test coverage on converting `uint256` <-> `arith_uint256` through `UintToArith256()` and `ArithToUint256()` is beefed up, and `arith_uint256` tests are moved to `arith_uint256_tests.cpp`, removing the `uint256_tests.cpp` dependency on `uint256h`, mirroring how the code is structured. _Note: `uint256::FromUserHex()` exists to more leniently construct uint256 from user input, allowing "0x" prefixes and too-short-input, as safer alternative to `uint256S()` where necessary._ ACKs for top commit: l0rinc: reACK 43cd83b0c7ba436b8ffc83d8a65e935714dffe70 hodlinator: re-ACK 43cd83b0c7ba436b8ffc83d8a65e935714dffe70 ryanofsky: Code review ACK 43cd83b0c7ba436b8ffc83d8a65e935714dffe70. Only code change is a small refactoring which looks good. The rest of the PR is all test changes, which I only lightly reviewed, but seem to be positive and do what's described Tree-SHA512: 48147a4c6af671597df0f72c1b477ae4631cd2cae4645ec54d0e327611ff302c9899e344518c81242cdde82930f6ad23a3a7e6e0b80671816e9f457b9de90a5c

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 during the generation of the build system) with: ctest. 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.
