Providing a script for the coinbase transaction is only done in test code
and for CPU solo mining.
Production miners use the getblocktemplate RPC which omits the coinbase
transaction entirely from its block template, leaving it to external (pool)
software to construct it.
A coinbase script can still be passed via BlockCreateOptions instead.
A temporary overload is added so that the test can be modified in the
next commit.
8f85d36d68 refactor: Clamp worker threads in ChainstateManager constructor (TheCharlatan)
Pull request description:
This ensures the options are applied consistently from contexts where they might not pass through the args manager, such as in some tests, or when used through the kernel library.
This is similar to the patch applied in 09ef322acc, used to make applying the mempool options consistent.

32fc59796f rpc: Allow single transaction through submitpackage (glozow)
Pull request description:
There's no particular reason to restrict single transaction submissions with submitpackage. This change relaxes the RPC checks as enables the `AcceptPackage` flow to accept packages of a single transaction.

36dbebafb9 rpc: Remove submitblock coinbase pre-check (TheCharlatan)
Pull request description:
With the introduction of a mining ipc interface and the potential future introduction of a kernel library API it becomes increasingly important to offer common behaviour between them. An example of this is ProcessNewBlock, which is used by ipc, rpc, net_processing and (potentially) the kernel library. Having divergent behaviour on suggested pre-checks and checks for these functions is confusing to both developers and users and is a maintenance burden.
The rpc interface for ProcessNewBlock (submitblock) currently pre-checks if the block has a coinbase transaction and whether it has been processed before. While the current example binary for how to use the kernel library, bitcoin-chainstate, imitates these checks, the other interfaces do not.
The coinbase check is repeated again early during ProcessNewBlock. Pre-checking it may also shadow more fundamental problems with a block. In most cases the block header is checked first, before validating the transactions. Checking the coinbase first therefore masks potential issues with the header. Fix this by removing the pre-check.
Similary the duplicate checks are repeated early in the contextual checks of ProcessNewBlock. If duplicate blocks are detected much of their validation is skipped. Depending on the constitution of the block, validating the merkle root of the block is part of the more intensive workload when validating a block. This could be an argument for moving the pre-checks into block processing. In net_processing this would have a smaller effect however, since the block mutation check, which also validates the merkle root, is done before.
Testing spamming a node with valid, but duplicate unrequested blocks seems to exhaust a CPU thread, but does not seem to significantly impact keeping up with the tip. The benefits of adding these checks to net_processing are questionable, especially since there are other ways to trigger the more CPU-intensive checks without submitting a duplicate block. Since these DOS concerns apply even less to the RPC interface, which does not have banning mechanics built in, remove them too.
Finally, also remove the pre-checks from `bitcoin-chainstate.cpp`.

-noconf would previously lead to an ifstream "successfully" being opened to the ".bitcoin"-directory (not a file). (Guards against the general case of directories as configs are added in grandchild commit to this one).
Other users of AbsPathForConfigVal() in combination with negated args have been updated earlier in this PR ("args: Support -nopid" and "args: Support -norpccookiefile...").
This makes the debug output mostly the same for -par=1 and parallel validation runs. Of course,
parallel validation is non-deterministic in what error it may encounter first if there are
multiple issues. Also, the way certain script-related and non-script-related checks are
performed differs between the two modes still, which may result in discrepancies.
The check type function now needs to return a std::optional<R> for some type R,
and the check queue overall will return std::nullopt if all individual checks
return that, or one of the non-nullopt values if there is at least one.
For most tests, we use R=int, but for the actual validation code, we make it return
the ScriptError.
The `ccoins_add` and `ccoins_write` tests check the actual exception error messages now instead of just that they fail for the given parameters.
This enables us testing different exceptions in a more fine-grained way in later changes.
We don't need so much access to the internals of CCoinsCacheEntry, since many tests are just exercising invalid combinations this way.
This implies that `AddFlags` has private access now.
CCoinsCacheEntry provided general access to its internal flags state, even though in reality it could only be clean, fresh, dirty or fresh|dirty.
After it got dirtied we couldn't set the state back to clean by AddFlags(0) - tests were explicitly checking against that.
This commit cleans up the public interface to make this distinction cleaner and invalid behavior impossible instead of just checked by tests.
This includes the removal of redundant `inline` qualifiers (we're inside a struct).
Also renamed `self` to `pair` to simplify the upcoming commits.
Also modernized `EmplaceCoinInternalDANGER` since it was already modified.

b73d331937 dbwrapper: Bump max file size to 32 MiB (Maciej S. Szmigiero)
Pull request description:
The default max file size for LevelDB is 2 MiB, which results in the LevelDB compaction code generating ~4 disk cache flushes per second when syncing with the Bitcoin network.
These disk cache flushes are triggered by `fdatasync()` syscall issued by the LevelDB compaction code when reaching the max file size.
If the database is on a HDD this flush rate brings the whole system to a crawl.
It also results in very slow throughput since 2 MiB * 4 flushes per second is about 8 MiB / second max throughput, while even an old HDD can pull 100 - 200 MiB / second streaming throughput.
Increase the max file size for LevelDB to 128 MiB instead so the flush rate drops to about 1 flush / 2 seconds and the system no longer gets so sluggish.
The max file size value chosen also matches the `MAX_BLOCKFILE_SIZE` file size setting already used by the block storage.

works best for HDD and SSD performance, as determined by benchmarks done by
various people.

Pull request description:
The RPC command `scanblocks` provides a useful way to get a set of blockhashes that have activity relevant to a set of descriptors (`relevant_blocks`). However actually extracting the activity from those blocks is left as an exercise to the end user.
This process involves not only generating the (potentially ranged) set of scripts for the descriptor set on the client side (maybe via `deriveaddresses`), but then the user must retrieve each block's contents one-by-one using `getblock <hash>`, which is transmitted over a network link. And that's all before they perform the actual search over block content. There's even more work required to incorporate unconfirmed transactions.
This PR introduces an RPC `getdescriptoractivity` that [dovetails](https://bitcoin-irc.chaincode.com/bitcoin-core-dev/2024-08-16#1046393;) with `scanblocks` output, handling the process described above. Users specify the blockhashes (perhaps from `relevant_blocks`) and a set of descriptors; they are then given all spend/receive activity in that set of blocks.
This is a very useful tool when implementing lightweight wallets that want neither to require a third-party indexer like electrs, nor the overhead of creating and managing watch-only wallets in Core. This allows Core to be more easily used in a "stateless" manner by wallets, with potentially many nodes interchangeably acting as backends.

c288c790cd interpreter: Use the same type for SignatureHash in the definition (TheCharlatan)
Pull request description:
This was missed during the original PR switching the nHashType argument to int32_t in SignatureHash in bc52cda1f3.
The problem was discovered after running into a linker error when attempting to link this code as a static library using the header as a declaration with a riscv32 bare metal toolchain. The compiler would error with:
```

```
With this patch it is possible to link against the static consensus library and produce a fully static executable.

This is not a pure refactor:
1. It slightly changes the log messages, as reflected in the test changes
2. It adds the IP address to all disconnect logging (when fLogIPs is set)
And under the hood suppoert single transactions
in AcceptPackage. This simplifies user experience
and paves the way for reducing number of codepaths
for transaction acceptance in the future.
