fae76393bd test: Avoid F541 (f-string without any placeholders) (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
An extra `f` string-prefix is mostly harmless, but could be confusing or hint to a mistake where a format argument was forgotten.
Try to avoid the confusion and mistakes by applying the `F541` linter rule.

cccca8a77f test: Avoid logging error when logging error (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Currently a logging error in the form of `--- Logging error ---` happens when an error is logged in the `_on_data` helper.
Fix it by properly logging the error.
Also, treat pylint errors as errors, to avoid this problem in the future.
Can be tested by running `p2p_addrv2_relay.py` with the following example diff:

36dbebafb9 rpc: Remove submitblock coinbase pre-check (TheCharlatan)
Pull request description:
With the introduction of a mining ipc interface and the potential future introduction of a kernel library API it becomes increasingly important to offer common behaviour between them. An example of this is ProcessNewBlock, which is used by ipc, rpc, net_processing and (potentially) the kernel library. Having divergent behaviour on suggested pre-checks and checks for these functions is confusing to both developers and users and is a maintenance burden.
The rpc interface for ProcessNewBlock (submitblock) currently pre-checks if the block has a coinbase transaction and whether it has been processed before. While the current example binary for how to use the kernel library, bitcoin-chainstate, imitates these checks, the other interfaces do not.
The coinbase check is repeated again early during ProcessNewBlock. Pre-checking it may also shadow more fundamental problems with a block. In most cases the block header is checked first, before validating the transactions. Checking the coinbase first therefore masks potential issues with the header. Fix this by removing the pre-check.
Similary the duplicate checks are repeated early in the contextual checks of ProcessNewBlock. If duplicate blocks are detected much of their validation is skipped. Depending on the constitution of the block, validating the merkle root of the block is part of the more intensive workload when validating a block. This could be an argument for moving the pre-checks into block processing. In net_processing this would have a smaller effect however, since the block mutation check, which also validates the merkle root, is done before.
Testing spamming a node with valid, but duplicate unrequested blocks seems to exhaust a CPU thread, but does not seem to significantly impact keeping up with the tip. The benefits of adding these checks to net_processing are questionable, especially since there are other ways to trigger the more CPU-intensive checks without submitting a duplicate block. Since these DOS concerns apply even less to the RPC interface, which does not have banning mechanics built in, remove them too.
Finally, also remove the pre-checks from `bitcoin-chainstate.cpp`.

This ensures we don't needlessly start the node, and reduces implicit dependencies between test functions.
test_seed_peers() - Move assert calling RPC to verify correct chain after our own function actually started the node.
This makes the debug output mostly the same for -par=1 and parallel validation runs. Of course,
parallel validation is non-deterministic in what error it may encounter first if there are
multiple issues. Also, the way certain script-related and non-script-related checks are
performed differs between the two modes still, which may result in discrepancies.
409d0d6293 test: enable running individual independent functional test methods (ismaelsadeeq)
Pull request description:
- Some test methods in the functional test framework are independent and do not require any prior context or setup in `run_test`.
- This commit adds a new option for running these specific methods within a test file, allowing them to be executed individually without running the entire test suite.
- Using this option reduces the time you need to wait before the test you are interested in starts executing.
- The functionality added by this PR can be achieved manually by commenting out code, but having a pragmatic option to do this is more convenient.
Note: Running test methods that require arguments or context will fail.
**Example Usage**:
```zsh
build/test/functional/feature_reindex.py --test_methods continue_reindex_after_shutdown
```
```zsh
build/test/functional/feature_config_args.py --test_methods test_log_buffer test_args_log test_connect_with_seednode

Code review ACK 409d0d6293. This seems like a good step towards making it easy to run independent tests quickly. I think ideally there would be some naming convention or @ annotation added to test methods that can run independently, so the test framework could provide more functionality like being able to list test methods, being able to show command lines to quickly reproduce problems when tests fails, and calling test methods automatically instead of requiring individual tests to call them. But these ideas are all compatible with the new `--test_methods` option

62f6d9e1a4 test: simple ordering optimization to reduce runtime (tdb3)
Pull request description:
Noticed in #31371 that the position of `mempool_ephemeral_dust` within `BASE_SCRIPTS` was lengthening total test runtime. Instead of moving only that test, looked for others to move to reduce runtime.
This is a quick optimization that was found to reduce overall functional test runtime of up to around 20% (depending on jobs and machine characteristics). Since it seems like test ordering could be done in many different ways, with many variables, and bike shedding could creep in, a relatively straightforward approach was taken for now that minimized changes to test_runner.

Pull request description:
The RPC command `scanblocks` provides a useful way to get a set of blockhashes that have activity relevant to a set of descriptors (`relevant_blocks`). However actually extracting the activity from those blocks is left as an exercise to the end user.
This process involves not only generating the (potentially ranged) set of scripts for the descriptor set on the client side (maybe via `deriveaddresses`), but then the user must retrieve each block's contents one-by-one using `getblock <hash>`, which is transmitted over a network link. And that's all before they perform the actual search over block content. There's even more work required to incorporate unconfirmed transactions.
This PR introduces an RPC `getdescriptoractivity` that [dovetails](https://bitcoin-irc.chaincode.com/bitcoin-core-dev/2024-08-16#1046393;) with `scanblocks` output, handling the process described above. Users specify the blockhashes (perhaps from `relevant_blocks`) and a set of descriptors; they are then given all spend/receive activity in that set of blocks.
This is a very useful tool when implementing lightweight wallets that want neither to require a third-party indexer like electrs, nor the overhead of creating and managing watch-only wallets in Core. This allows Core to be more easily used in a "stateless" manner by wallets, with potentially many nodes interchangeably acting as backends.

Pre-checking it may also shadow more fundamental problems with a block.
In most cases the block header is checked first, before validating the
transactions. Checking the coinbase first therefore masks potential
issues with the header. Fix this by removing the pre-check.
The pre-check was likely introduced on top of
ada0caa165 to fix UB in
GetWitnessCommitmentIndex in case a block's transactions are empty. This
code path could only be reached because of the call to
UpdateUncommittedBlockStructures in submitblock, but cannot be reached
through net_processing.
Add some functional test cases to cover the previous conditions that
lead to a "Block does not start with a coinbase" json rpc error being
returned.
---
With the introduction of a mining ipc interface and the potential future
introduction of a kernel library API it becomes increasingly important
to offer common behaviour between them. An example of this is
ProcessNewBlock, which is used by ipc, rpc, net_processing and
(potentially) the kernel library. Having divergent behaviour on
suggested pre-checks and checks for these functions is confusing to both
developers and users and is a maintenance burden.
The rpc interface for ProcessNewBlock (submitblock) currently pre-checks
if the block has a coinbase transaction and whether it has been
processed before. While the current example binary for how to use the
kernel library, bitcoin-chainstate, imitates these checks, the other
interfaces do not.
Recently added mempool_util implementation probably evolved in parallel with the package RBF one before being submitted as part of ephemeral dust in e2e30e89ba.

Pull request description:
part of cluster mempool: #30289
It became clear while working on cluster mempool that it would be helpful for transaction validation if we could consider a full set of proposed changes to the mempool -- consisting of a set of transactions to add, and a set of transactions (ie conflicts) to simultaneously remove -- and perform calculations on what the mempool would look like if the proposed changes were to be applied. Two specific examples of where we'd like to do this:
- Determining if ancestor/descendant/TRUC limits would be violated (in the future, cluster limits) if either a single transaction or a package of transactions were to be accepted
- Determining if an RBF would make the mempool "better", however that idea is defined, both in the single transaction and package of transaction cases
In preparation for cluster mempool, I have pulled this reworking of the mempool interface out of #28676 so it can be reviewed on its own. I have not re-implemented ancestor/descendant limits to be run through the changeset, since with cluster mempool those limits will be going away, so this seems like wasted effort. However, I have rebased #28676 on top of this branch so reviewers can see what the new mempool interface could look like in the cluster mempool setting.
There are some minor behavior changes here, which I believe are inconsequential:
- In the package validation setting, transactions would be added to the mempool before the `ConsensusScriptChecks()` are run. In theory, `ConsensusScriptChecks()` should always pass if the `PolicyScriptChecks()` have passed and it's just a belt-and-suspenders for us, but if somehow they were to diverge then there could be some small behavior change from adding transactions and then removing them, versus never adding them at all.
- The error reporting on `CheckConflictTopology()` has slightly changed due to no longer distinguishing between direct conflicts and indirect conflicts. I believe this should be entirely inconsequential because there shouldn't be a logical difference between those two ideas from the perspective of this function, but I did have to update some error strings in some tests.
- Because, in a package setting, RBFs now happen as part of the entire package being accepted, the logging has changed slightly because we do not know which transaction specifically evicted a given removed transaction.
- Specifically, the "package hash" is now used to reference the set of transactions that are being accepted, rather than any single txid. The log message relating to package RBF that happen in the `TXPACKAGES` category has been updated as well to include the package hash, so that it's possible to see which specific set of transactions are being referenced by that package hash.
- Relatedly, the tracepoint logging in the package rbf case has been updated as well to reference the package hash, rather than a transaction hash.

Pull request description:
A repeating pattern in the functional tests is that the test sleeps for a while to ensure that a certain condition is still true after some amount of time has elapsed. Most recently a new case of this was added in #30807. This PR here introduces an `ensure` helper to streamline this functionality.
Some approach considerations:
- It is possible to construct this by reusing `wait_until` and wrapping it in `try` internally. However, the logger output of the failing wait would still be printed which seems irritating. So I opted for simplified but similar internals to `wait_until`.
- This implementation starts for a failure in the condition right away which has the nice side-effect that it might give feedback on a failure earlier than is currently the case. However, in some cases, it may be expected that the condition may still be false at the beginning and then turns true until time has run out, something that would work when the test sleeps without checking in a loop. I decided against this design (and even against adding it as an option) because such a test design seems like it would be racy either way.
- I have also been going back and forth on naming. To me `ensure` works well but I am also not a native speaker, happy consider a different name if others don't think it's clear enough.

Pull request description:
`m_best_header` (the most-work header not known to be on an invalid chain) can be wrong in the context of invalidation / reconsideration of blocks. This can happen naturally (a valid header is received and stored in our block tree db; when the full block arrives, it is found to be invalid) or triggered by the user with the `invalidateblock` / `reconsiderblock` rpc.
We don't currently use `m_best_header` for any critical things (see OP of #16974 for a list that still seems up-to-date), so it being wrong affects mostly rpcs.
This PR proposes to recalculate it if necessary by looping over the block index and finding the best header. It also suggest to mark headers between an invalidatetd block and the previous `m_best_header` as invalid, so they won't be considered in the recalculation.
It adds tests to `rpc_invalidateblock.py` and `rpc_getchaintips.py` that fail on master.
One alternative to this suggested in the past would be to introduce a continuous tracking of header tips (#12138).
While this might be more performant, it is also more complicated, and situations where we need this data are only be remotely triggerable by paying the cost of creating a valid PoW header for an invalid block.
Therefore I think it isn't necessary to optimise for performance here, plus the solution in this PR doesn't perform any extra steps in the normal node operation where no invalidated blocks are encountered.

The mempool:replaced tracepoint now reports either a txid or a
package hash (previously it always was a txid). To let users know
if a txid or package hash is passed, a boolean argument is added
the the tracepoint.
In the functional test, a ctypes.Structure class for MempoolReplaced
is introduced as Python warns the following when not explcitly
casting it to a ctype:
Type: 'bool' not recognized. Please define the data with ctypes manually.
