Pull request description:
Miniscript is a language for writing (a subset of) Bitcoin Scripts in a structured way.
Miniscript permits:
- To safely extend the Output Descriptor language to many more scripting features thanks to the typing system (composition).
- Statical analysis of spending conditions, maximum spending cost of each branch, security properties, third-party malleability.
- General satisfaction of any correctly typed ("valid" [0]) Miniscript. The satisfaction itself is also analyzable.
- To extend the possibilities of external signers, because of all of the above and since it carries enough metadata.
Miniscript guarantees:
- That for any statically-analyzed as "safe" [0] Script, a witness can be constructed in the bounds of the consensus and standardness rules (standardness complete).
- That unless the conditions of the Miniscript are met, no witness can be created for the Script (consensus sound).
- Third-party malleability protection for the satisfaction of a sane Miniscript, which is too complex to summarize here.
For more details around Miniscript (including the specifications), please refer to the [website](https://bitcoin.sipa.be/miniscript/).
Miniscript was designed by Pieter Wuille, Andrew Poelstra and Sanket Kanjalkar.
This PR is an updated and rebased version of #16800. See [the commit history of the Miniscript repository](https://github.com/sipa/miniscript/commits/master) for details about the changes made since September 2019 (TL;DR: bugfixes, introduction of timelock conflicts in the type system, `pk()` and `pkh()` aliases, `thresh_m` renamed to `multi`, all recursive algorithms were made non-recursive).
This PR is also the first in a series of 3:
- The first one (here) integrates the backbone of Miniscript.
- The second one (#24148) introduces support for Miniscript in Output Descriptors, allowing for watch-only support of Miniscript Descriptors in the wallet.
- The third one (#24149) implements signing for these Miniscript Descriptors, using Miniscript's satisfaction algorithm.
Note to reviewers:
- Miniscript is currently defined only for P2WSH. No Taproot yet.
- Miniscript is different from the policy language (a high-level logical representation of a spending policy). A policy->Miniscript compiler is not included here.
- The fuzz target included here is more interestingly extended in the 3rd PR to check a script's satisfaction against `VerifyScript`. I think it could be further improved by having custom mutators as we now have for multisig (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/23105). A minified corpus of Miniscript Scripts is available at https://github.com/bitcoin-core/qa-assets/pull/85.
[0] We call "valid" any correctly-typed Miniscript. And "safe" any sane Miniscript, ie one whose satisfaction isn't malleable, which requires a key for any spending path, etc..

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.
