/** \brief Interface for parsed descriptor objects.
 *
 * Descriptors are strings that describe a set of scriptPubKeys, together with
 * all information necessary to solve them. By combining all information into
 * one, they avoid the need to separately import keys and scripts.
 *
 * Descriptors may be ranged, which occurs when the public keys inside are
 * specified in the form of HD chains (xpubs).
 *
 * Descriptors always represent public information - public keys and scripts -
 * but in cases where private keys need to be conveyed along with a descriptor,
 * they can be included inside by changing public keys to private keys (WIF
 * format), and changing xpubs by xprvs.
 *
 * Reference documentation about the descriptor language can be found in
 * doc/descriptors.md.
