Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#22089: test: MiniWallet: fix fee calculation for P2PK and check tx vsize 
d6d2ab9845 test: MiniWallet: fix fee calculation for P2PK and check tx vsize (Sebastian Falbesoner)
ce024b1c0e test: MiniWallet: force P2PK signature to have fixed size (71 bytes) (Sebastian Falbesoner)

Pull request description:

  This PR is a follow-up to #21945. It aims to both fix the fee calculation for P2PK mode transactions and enable its vsize check. Currently, the latter assumes a fixed tx length, which is fine for anyone-can-spend txs but doesn't apply to P2PK output spends due to varying DER signature size; the vsize check is therefore disabled for P2PK mode on master branch.

  Creating one million DER signatures with MiniWallet shows the following distribution of sizes (smart people with better math skills probably could deduce the ratios without trying, but hey):

  | DER signature size [bytes]  | #occurences (ratio) |
  | ------------- | ------------- |
  | 71  | 498893 (49.89%) |
  | 70 | 497244 (49.72%) |
  | 69 | 3837 (0.38%) |
  | 68 | 22 (0.0022%) |

  Note that even smaller signatures are possible (for smaller R and S values with leading zero bytes), it's just that the probability decreases exponentially.     Instead of choosing a large vsize check range and hoping that smaller signatures are never created (potentially leading to flaky tests), the proposed solution is ~~to limit the signature size to the two most common sizes 71 and 70 (>99.6% probability) and then accordingly only check for two vsize values; the value to be used for fee calculation is a decimal right between the two possible sizes (167.5 vbytes) and for the vsize check it's rounded down/up integer values are used.~~ to simply grind the signature to a fixed size of 71 bytes (49.89% probability, i.e. on average each call to `sign_tx()`, on average two ECC signing operations are needed).

  ~~The idea of grinding signatures to a fixed size (similar to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/13666 which grinds to low-R values) would be counter-productive, as the signature creation in the test suite is quite expensive and this would significantly slow down tests that calculate hundreds of signatures (like e.g. feature_csv_activation.py).~~

Further information about Bitcoin Core is available in the doc folder.

What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is an experimental digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Bitcoin Core is the name of open source software which enables the use of this currency.

For more information read the original Bitcoin whitepaper.

License

Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.

Development Process

The master branch is regularly built (see doc/build-*.md for instructions) and tested, but it is not guaranteed to be completely stable. Tags are created regularly from release branches to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin Core.

The https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui repository is used exclusively for the development of the GUI. Its master branch is identical in all monotree repositories. Release branches and tags do not exist, so please do not fork that repository unless it is for development reasons.

The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.

Testing

Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.

Automated Testing

Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run (assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.

There are also regression and integration tests, written in Python. These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py

The CI (Continuous Integration) systems make sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.

Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing

Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.

Translations

Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Bitcoin Core's Transifex page.

Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.

Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
