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.
This is an extraction of ArgsManager related functions from util/system
into their own common file.
Config file related functions are moved to common/config.cpp.
The background of this commit is an ongoing effort to decouple the
libbitcoinkernel library from the ArgsManager. The ArgsManager belongs
into the common library, since the kernel library should not depend on
it. See doc/design/libraries.md for more information on this rationale.
The fs.* files are already part of the libbitcoin_util library. With the
introduction of the fs_helpers.* it makes sense to move fs.* into the
util/ directory as well.
Add more fs::path operator/ and operator+ overloads to prevent unsafe
string->path conversions on Windows that would cause strings to be
decoded according to the current Windows locale & code page instead of
the correct string encoding.
Update application code to deal with loss of implicit string->path
conversions by calling fs::u8path or fs::PathFromString explicitly, or
by just changing variable types from std::string to fs::path to avoid
conversions altoghther, or make them happen earlier.
In all cases, there's no change in behavior either (1) because strings
only contained ASCII characters and would be decoded the same regardless
of what encoding was used, or (2) because of the 1:1 mapping between
paths and strings using the PathToString and PathFromString functions.

Warning: Replacing fs::system_complete calls with fs::absolute calls
in this commit may cause minor changes in behaviour because fs::absolute
no longer strips trailing slashes; however these changes are believed to
be safe.

Name has been confusing since it was introduced, and it was pointed in
recent review club as https://bitcoincore.reviews/10102 that it was
particularly unclear how interfaces::WalletClient was different from
interfaces::Wallet.

There is no change in behavior. This just helps prepare for the
transition from boost::filesystem to std::filesystem by avoiding calls
to methods which will be unsafe after the transaction to std::filesystem
to due lack of a boost::filesystem::path::imbue equivalent and inability
to set a predictable locale.

Leaving this value set interfered with the CreateWallet test if it happened to execute later in the test ordering. Specifically it would cause CreateWallet test to write data to the current directory instead of temporary test directory.
No longer create a default wallet. The default wallet will still be
loaded if it exists and not other wallets were specified (anywhere,
including settings.json, bitcoin.conf, and command line).
Tests are updated to be started with -wallet= if they need the default
wallet.
Added test to wallet_startup.py testing that no default wallet is
created and that it is loaded if it exists and no other wallets were
specified.
Add WalletClient interface so node interface is cleaner and don't need
wallet-specific methods.
The new NodeContext::wallet_client pointer will also be needed to eliminate
global wallet variables like ::vpwallets, because createWallet(), loadWallet(),
getWallets(), etc methods called by the GUI need a way to get a reference to
the list of open wallets if it is no longer a global variable.
Also tweaks splash screen registration for load wallet events to be delayed
until after wallet client is created.
Route calls during node initialization and shutdown that would happen between a
node process and wallet processes through the serializable `Chain::Client`
interface, rather than `WalletInitInterface` which is now simpler and only
deals with early initialization and parameter interaction.
This commit mostly does not change behavior. The only change is that the
"Wallet disabled!" and "No wallet support compiled in!" messages are now logged
earlier during startup.
