Pieter Wuille 376086fc5a Make validation interface capable of signalling header presync 
This makes a number of changes:
- Get rid of the verification_progress argument in the node interface
  NotifyHeaderTip (it was always 0.0).
- Instead of passing a CBlockIndex* in the UI interface's NotifyHeaderTip,
  send separate height, timestamp fields. This is becuase in headers presync,
  no actual CBlockIndex object is available.
- Add a bool presync argument to both of the above, to identify signals
  pertaining to the first headers sync phase.

Internal c++ interfaces

The following interfaces are defined here:

  • Chain — used by wallet to access blockchain and mempool state. Added in #14437, #14711, #15288, and #10973.

  • ChainClient — used by node to start & stop Chain clients. Added in #14437.

  • Node — used by GUI to start & stop bitcoin node. Added in #10244.

  • Wallet — used by GUI to access wallets. Added in #10244.

  • Handler — returned by handleEvent methods on interfaces above and used to manage lifetimes of event handlers.

  • Init — used by multiprocess code to access interfaces above on startup. Added in #19160.

  • Ipc — used by multiprocess code to access Init interface across processes. Added in #19160.

The interfaces above define boundaries between major components of bitcoin code (node, wallet, and gui), making it possible for them to run in different processes, and be tested, developed, and understood independently. These interfaces are not currently designed to be stable or to be used externally.
