Pull request description:
Add an RPC to get prioritised transactions (also tells you whether the tx is in mempool or not), helping users clean up `mapDeltas` manually. When `CTxMemPool::PrioritiseTransaction` sets a delta to 0, remove the entry from `mapDeltas`.
Motivation / Background
- `mapDeltas` entries are never removed from mapDeltas except when the tx is mined in a block or conflicted.
- Mostly it is a feature to allow `prioritisetransaction` for a tx that isn't in the mempool {yet, anymore}. A user can may resbumit a tx and it retains its priority, or mark a tx as "definitely accept" before it is seen.
- Since #8448, `mapDeltas` is persisted to mempool.dat and loaded on restart. This is also good, otherwise we lose prioritisation on restart.
- Note the removal due to block/conflict is only done when `removeForBlock` is called, i.e. when the block is received. If you load a mempool.dat containing `mapDeltas` with transactions that were mined already (e.g. the file was saved prior to the last few blocks), you don't delete them.
- Related: #4818 and #6464.
- There is no way to query the node for not-in-mempool `mapDeltas`. If you add a priority and forget what the value was, the only way to get that information is to inspect mempool.dat.
- Calling `prioritisetransaction` with an inverse value does not remove it from `mapDeltas`, it just sets the value to 0. It disappears on a restart (`LoadMempool` checks if delta is 0), but that might not happen for a while.
Added together, if a user calls `prioritisetransaction` very regularly and not all those transactions get mined/conflicted, `mapDeltas` might keep lots of entries of delta=0 around. A user should clean up the not-in-mempool prioritisations, but that's currently difficult without keeping track of what those txids/amounts are.

Since the kernel library no longer depends on the system file, move it
to the common library instead in accordance to the diagram in
doc/design/libraries.md.
This commit effectively moves the definition of these constants
out of the chainparamsbase to their own file.
Using the ChainType enums provides better type safety compared to
passing around strings.
The commit is part of an ongoing effort to decouple the libbitcoinkernel
library from the ArgsManager and other functionality that should not be
part of the kernel library.

Pull request description:
Instead of using `0.001` and similar constants to "convert" an int64_t to milliseconds, use the type-safe `Ticks<>` helper. Also, use steady clock instead of system clock, since the durations are used for benchmarking.

In order to prevent memory DoS, we must ensure that we don't accept a new
header into memory until we've performed anti-DoS checks, such as verifying
that the header is part of a sufficiently high work chain. This commit adds a
new argument to AcceptBlockHeader() so that we can ensure that all call-sites
which might cause a new header to be accepted into memory have to grapple with
the question of whether the header is safe to accept, or needs further
validation.
This patch also fixes two places where low-difficulty-headers could have been
processed without such validation (processing an unrequested block from the
network, and processing a compact block).
Credit to Niklas Gögge for noticing this issue, and thanks to Sjors Provoost
for test code.

Changes:
- In BlockAssembler::CreateNewBlock, we now only lock m_mempool->cs and
call addPackageTxs if m_mempool is not nullptr
- BlockAssembler::addPackageTxs now takes in a mempool reference, and is
annotated to require that mempool's lock.
- In TestChain100Setup::CreateBlock and generateblock, don't construct
an empty mempool, just pass in a nullptr for mempool
This decouples validation.cpp from netaddress.cpp (transitively,
timedata.cpp, and asmap.cpp).
This is important for libbitcoinkernel as:
- There is no reason for the consensus engine to be coupled with
netaddress, timedata, and asmap
- Users of libbitcoinkernel can now easily supply their own
std::function that provides the adjusted time.
See the src/Makefile.am changes for some satisfying removals.

Pull request description:
It seems confusing to pass chain params, consensus params, or a time function around when it is not needed.
Fix this by:
* Inlining the passed time getter function. I don't see a use case why this should be mockable.
* Using `chainman.GetConsensus()` or `chainman.GetParams()`, where possible.

dce8c4c381 rpc: getblockfrompeer (Sjors Provoost)
b884ababc2 rpc: move Ensure* helpers to server_util.h (Sjors Provoost)
Pull request description:
This adds an RPC method to fetch a block directly from a peer. This can used to fetch stale blocks with lower proof of work that are normally ignored by the node (`headers-only` in `getchaintips`).
Usage:
```
bitcoin-cli getblockfrompeer HASH peer_n
```
Closes #20155
Limitations:
* you have to specify which peer to fetch the block from
* the node must already have the header

Pull request description:
It is impossible to run the miner without a node (validation, chainstate, mempool, rpc, ...). Also, the module is in the node library. Thus, it should be moved to `src/node`.
Also, replace the `validation.h` include in the header with a forward-declaration.
