This pull request is part of the `libbitcoinkernel` project https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/27587https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/projects/18 and more specifically its "Step 2: Decouple most non-consensus code from libbitcoinkernel".
---
It removes the kernel library's dependency on `util/system` and `interface_ui`. `util/system` contains networking and shell-related code that should not be part of the kernel library. The following pull requests prepared `util/system` for this final step: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27419https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27254https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27238.
`interface_ui` defines functions for a more general node interface and has a dependency on `boost/signals2`. After applying the patches from this pull request, the kernel's reliance on boost is down to `boost::multiindex`.
The approach implemented here introduces some indirection, which makes the code a bit harder to read. Any suggestions for improving or reworking this pull request to make it more concise, or even reworking it into a more proper interface, are appreciated.

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 is part of the libbitcoinkernel project and seeks to remove
the ChainstateManager's and, more generally, the kernel library's
dependency on interface_ui with options methods in this and the following
few commits. By removing interface_ui from the kernel library, its
dependency on boost is reduced to just boost::multi_index.
Define a new kernel notification class with virtual methods for
notifying about internal kernel events. Create a new file in the node
library for defining a function creating the default set of notification
methods such that these do not need to be re-defined all over the
codebase. As a first step, add a `blockTip` method, wrapping
`uiInterface.NotifyBlockTip`.
This is achieved by letting the index sync thread wait until
reindex-chainstate is finished.
This also disables the pruning check when reindexing the chainstate (which is
incompatible with prune mode) because there would be no chain at this point
in init.
Add a blocks_dir field to the BlockManager options. Move functions
relying on the global gArgs to get the blocks_dir into the BlockManager
class.
This should eventually allow users of the BlockManager to not rely on
the global Args and instead pass in their own options.
This is a commit in preparation for the next few commits. The functions
are moved to methods to avoid their re-declaration for the purpose of
passing in BlockManager options.
The functions that were now moved into the BlockManager should no longer
use the params as an argument, but instead use the member variable.
In the moved ReadBlockFromDisk and UndoReadFromDisk, change
the function signature to accept a reference to a CBlockIndex instead of
a raw pointer. The pointer is expected to be non-null, so reflect that
in the type.
To allow for the move of functions to BlockManager methods all call
sites require an instantiated BlockManager, or a callback to one.
This is a follow-up to previous commits moving the chain constants out
of chainparamsbase.
The script removes the chainparamsbase header in all files where it is
included, but not used. This is done by filtering against all defined
symbols of the header as well as its respective .cpp file.
The kernel chainparams now no longer relies on chainparamsbase.
-BEGIN VERIFY SCRIPT-
sed -i '/#include <chainparamsbase.h>/d' $( git grep -l 'chainparamsbase.h' | xargs grep -L 'CBaseChainParams\|CreateBaseChainParams\|SetupChainParamsBaseOptions\|BaseParams\|SelectBaseParams\|chainparamsbase.cpp' )
-END VERIFY SCRIPT-
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:
Part of package relay, see #27463.
Note that this still allows packages to bump transactions that are below the dynamic mempool minimum feerate, which means this still solves the "mempool is congested and my presigned 1sat/vB tx is screwed" problem for all transactions.
On master, the package policy (only accessible through regtest-only RPC submitpackage) allows 0-fee (or otherwise below min relay feerate) transactions if they are bumped by a child. However, with default package limits, we don't yet have a DoS-resistant way of ensuring these transactions remain bumped throughout their time in the mempool. Primarily, the fee-bumping child may later be replaced by another transaction that doesn't bump the parent(s). The parent(s) could potentially stay bumped by other transactions, but not enough to ever be selected by the `BlockAssembler` (due to `blockmintxfee`).
For example, (tested [here](https://github.com/glozow/bitcoin/commits/26933-motivation)):
- The mempool accepts 24 below-minrelayfeerate transactions ("0-fee parents"), all bumped by a single high-fee transaction ("the fee-bumping child"). The fee-bumping child also spends a confirmed UTXO.
- Two additional children are added to each 0-fee parent. These children each pay a feerate slightly above the minimum relay feerate (e.g. 1.9sat/vB) such that, for each 0-fee parent, the total fees of its two children divided by the total size of the children and parent is above the minimum relay feerate.
- If a block template is built now, all transactions would be selected.
- A transaction replaces the the fee-bumping child, spending only the confirmed UTXO and not any of the outputs from the 0-fee parents.
- The 0-fee parents now each have 2 children. Their descendant feerates are above minrelayfeerate, which means that they remain in the mempool, even if the mempool evicts all below-minrelayfeerate packages.
- If a block template is built now, none of the 0-fee parents or their children would be selected.
- Even more low-feerate descendants can be added to these below-minrelayfeerate packages and they will not be evicted until they expire or the mempool reaches capacity.
Unless we have a DoS-resistant way of ensuring package CPFP-bumped transactions are always bumped, allowing package CPFP to bump below-minrelayfeerate transactions can result in these problematic situations. See #27018 which proposes a partial solution with some limitations, and contains discussion about potential improvements to eviction strategy. While no adequate solution exists, for now, avoid these situations by requiring all transactions to meet min relay feerate.

Pull request description:
A memory resource similar to `std::pmr::unsynchronized_pool_resource`, but optimized for node-based containers. The goal is to be able to cache more coins with the same memory usage, and allocate/deallocate faster.
This is a reimplementation of #22702. The goal was to implement it in a way that is simpler to review & test
* There is now a generic `PoolResource` for allocating/deallocating memory. This has practically the same API as `std::pmr::memory_resource`. (Unfortunately I cannot use std::pmr because libc++ simply doesn't implement that API).
* Thanks to sipa there is now a fuzzer for PoolResource! On a fast machine I ran it for ~770 million executions without finding any issue.
* The estimation of the correct node size is now gone, PoolResource now has multiple pools and just needs to be created large enough to have space for the unordered_map nodes.
I ran benchmarks with #22702, mergebase, and this PR. Frequency locked Intel i7-8700, clang++ 13.0.1 to reindex up to block 690000.
```sh
bitcoind -dbcache=5000 -assumevalid=00000000000000000002a23d6df20eecec15b21d32c75833cce28f113de888b7 -reindex-chainstate -printtoconsole=0 -stopatheight=690000
```
The performance is practically identical with #22702, just 0.4% slower. It's ~21% faster than master:

Pull request description:
This pull request is part of the `libbitcoinkernel` project https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/24303https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/projects/18 and more specifically its "Step 2: Decouple most non-consensus code from libbitcoinkernel". This commit was originally authored by empact and is taken from its parent PR #25152.
#### Context
There is an ongoing effort to decouple the `ArgsManager` used for command line parsing user-provided arguments from the libbitcoinkernel library (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/25290, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/25487, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/25527, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/25862, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/26177, and https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27125). The `ArgsManager` is defined in `system.h`. A similar pull request extracting functionality from `system.h` has been merged in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27238.
#### Changes
Next to providing better code organization, this PR removes some reliance of the tree of libbitcoinkernel header includes on `system.h` (and thus the `ArgsManager` definition) by moving filesystem related functions out of the `system.*` files.
There is already a pair of `fs.h` / `fs.cpp` in the top-level `src/` directory. They were not combined with the files introduced here, to keep the patch cleaner and more importantly because they are often included without the utility functions. The new files are therefore named `fs_helpers` and the existing `fs` files are moved into the util directory.
Further commits splitting more functionality out of `system.h` are still in #25152 and will be submitted in separate PRs once this PR has been processed.

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.

Pull request description:
`VerifyDB()` can fail to complete due to insufficient dbcache at the level 3 checks. This PR improves the error handling in this case in the following ways:
- The rpc `-verifychain` now returns false if the check can't be completed due to insufficient cache
- During init, we only log a warning if the default values for `-checkblocks` and `-checklevel` are taken and the check doesn't complete. However, if the user actively specifies one of these args, we return with an InitError if we can't complete the check.
This PR also changes `-verifychain` RPC to return `false` if the verification didn't finish due to missing block data (pruning) or due to being interrupted by the node being shutdown.
Previously, this PR also included a fix for a possible assert during verification - this was done in #27009 (now merged).

Pull request description:
Code in the libbitcoin_kernel library should not be calling `ArgsManager` methods or trying to read options from the command line. Instead it should just get options values from simple structs and function arguments that are passed in externally. This PR removes `gArgs` accesses from `dbwrapper` and `txdb` modules by defining appropriate options structs, and is a followup to PR's #25290#25487#25527 which remove other `ArgsManager` calls from kernel modules.
This PR does not change behavior in any way. It is a simpler alternative to #25623 because the only thing it does is remove `gArgs` references from kernel code. It avoids other unnecessary changes like adding options to the kernel API (they can be added separately later).

The rpc command verifychain now fails if the dbcache was not sufficient
to complete the verification at the specified level and depth.
In the same situation, the VerifyDB check during Init will now fail (and lead to
an early shutdown) if the user has explicitly specified -checkblocks or
-checklevel but the check couldn't be executed because of the limited
cache. If the user didn't change any of the two and is using the defaults, log a warning
but don't prevent the node from starting up.

Pull request description:
This is an alternative to #25354 (by my benchmarking, somewhat faster), subsumes #25712, and adds additional test vectors.
It separates the multiple-of-64-bytes-only "core" logic (which becomes simpler) from a layer around which performs caching/slicing to support arbitrary byte amounts. Both have their uses (in particular, the MuHash3072 code can benefit from multiple-of-64-bytes assumptions), plus the separation results in more readable code. Also, since FastRandomContext effectively had its own (more naive) caching on top of ChaCha20, that can be dropped in favor of ChaCha20's new built-in caching.
I thought about rebasing #25712 on top of this, but the changes before are fairly extensive, so redid it instead.

Use DBParams struct to remove ArgsManager uses from txdb.
To reduce size of this commit, this moves references to gArgs variable out of
txdb.cpp to calling code in chainstate.cpp. But these moves are temporary. The
gArgs references in chainstate.cpp are moved out to calling code in init.cpp in
later commits.

pnode->vProcessMsg.splice(pnode->vProcessMsg.end(), pnode->vRecvMsg, pnode->vRecvMsg.begin(), it);
```
is called, `it` is certainly `pnode->vRecvMsg.end()` which makes the
call equivalent to:
```cpp
pnode->vProcessMsg.splice(pnode->vProcessMsg.end(), pnode->vRecvMsg, pnode->vRecvMsg.begin(), pnode->vRecvMsg.end());
```
which is equivalent to:
```cpp
pnode->vProcessMsg.splice(pnode->vProcessMsg.end(), pnode->vRecvMsg);
```
Thus, use the latter. Further, maybe irrelevant, but the latter has
constant complexity while the original code is `O(length of vRecvMsg)`.

Pull request description:
Performance of block template building matters as miners likely want to be able to start mining on a block with transactions asap after a block is found. We would want to know if a mempool PR accidentally caused, for example, a 100x slowdown. An `AssembleBlock()` bench exists, but it operates on a mempool with 101 transactions, each with 0 ancestors or descendants and with the same fee. Adding a bench with a more complex mempool is useful because (1) it's more realistic (2) updating packages can potentially cause the algorithm to take a long time.

This makes the contents of the mempool more realistic and iterating by
ancestor feerate order more meaningful. If transactions have varying
feerates, it's also more likely that packages will need to be updated
during block template assembly.
