This adds the infrastructure `BaseRequestHandler` class that takes care
of converting bitcoin-cli arguments into a JSON-RPC request object, and
converting the reply into a JSON object that can be shown as result.
This is subsequently used to handle the `-getinfo` option, which sends
a JSON-RPC batch request to the RPC server with
`["getnetworkinfo", "getblockchaininfo", "getwalletinfo"]`,
and after reply combines the result into what looks like a `getinfo`
result.
There have been some requests for a client-side `getinfo` and this
is my PoC of how to do it. If this is considered a good idea
some of the logic could be moved up to rpcclient.cpp and
used in the GUI console as well.

Changes the errors field to warnings. To maintain compatibility,
the errors field is deprecated and enabled by starting bitcoind with
-deprecatedrpc=getmininginfo
Deprecate estimatefee in v0.16, for final removal in v0.17.
This commit introduces a phased removal of RPC methods. RPC method is
disabled by default in version x, but can be enabled by using the
`-deprecatedrpc=<method>` argument. RPC method is removed entirely in
version (x+1).
Writes the GUI settings to `guisettings.bak` in the data directory
before wiping them. This can be used to retroactively troubleshoot
issues (e.g. #11262) where `-resetguisettings` solves the problem.
In the case of CKey's destructor, it seems to have been an oversight in
f4d1fc259 not to delete it. At this point, it results in the move
constructors/assignment operators for CKey being deleted, which may have
a performance impact.
Use C++11's better capability of expressing an interface of a non-copyable class by publicly deleting its copy ctor and assignment operator instead of just declaring them private.
- Move comment about transaction/block weight calculation so it applies not only to the GetBlockWeight function but also to GetTransactionWeight
- Fix comment in validation.cpp referencing future deployment of BIP113. It has already been deployed.
- The doc comment for BLOCK_DOWNLOAD_WINDOW wasn't updated since pruning was introduced, so it still refers to pruning as something that might happen in the future. A larger BLOCK_DOWNLOAD_WINDOW window would now, indeed, make pruning harder.
No sensible user will ever keep the default settings here, so not
having sensible defaults only serves to screw users who are
paying less attention, which makes for terrible defaults.
* This removes block-size-limiting code in favor of GBT clients
doing the limiting themselves (if at all).
* -blockmaxsize is deprecated and only used to calculate an implied
blockmaxweight, addressing confusion from multiple users.
* getmininginfo's currentblocksize return value was returning
garbage values, and has been removed, also removing a
GetSerializeSize call in some block generation inner loops and
potentially addressing some performance edge cases.
Rationale:
- this init function can now open multiple wallets (hence
Wallet->Wallets)
- This is named as the antonym to CloseWallets(), which carries out the
opposite action.
1. nStatus of CBlockIndex is consistent with the definition of Enum(BlockStatus)
2. The BlockHeader is consistent with the type of variable defined in CBlockHeader
