fe49f06c0e doc: clarify PR 26076 release note (Sjors Provoost)
bd13dc2f46 Switch hardened derivation marker to h in descriptors (Sjors Provoost)
Pull request description:
This makes it easier to handle descriptor strings manually, especially when importing from another Bitcoin Core wallet.
For example the `importdescriptors` RPC call is easiest to use `h` as the marker: `'["desc": ".../0h/..."]'`, avoiding the need for escape characters. With this change `listdescriptors` will use `h`, so you can copy-paste the result, without having to add escape characters or switch `'` to 'h' manually.
Both markers can still be parsed.
The `hdkeypath` field in `getaddressinfo` is also impacted by this change, except for legacy wallets. The latter is to prevent accidentally breaking ancient software that uses our legacy wallet.
See discussion in #15740

This makes it easier to handle descriptor strings manually. E.g. an RPC call that takes an array of descriptors can now use '["desc": ".../0h/..."]'.
Both markers can still be parsed. The default for new descriptors is changed to h. In normalized form h is also used. For private keys the chosen marker is preserved in a round trip.
The hdkeypath field in getaddressinfo is also impacted by this change.
b082f28101 rpc, wallet: use the same `next_index` in listdescriptors and importdescriptors (w0xlt)
Pull request description:
Currently `listdescriptors` RPC uses `next` key to represent `WalletDescriptor::next_index` while `importdescriptors` uses `next_index`. This creates two different descriptor formats.
This PR changes `listdescriptors` to use the same key as `importdescriptors`.

Review note: The changes are complete, because self.options.descriptors
is set to None in parse_args (test_framework.py).
A value of None implies -disablewallet, see the previous commit.
So if a call to add_wallet_options is missing, it will lead to a test
failure when the wallet is compiled in.
bb822a7af8 wallet, rpc: add listdescriptors private option (S3RK)
Pull request description:
Rationale: make it possible to backup your wallet with `listdescriptors` command
* The default behaviour is still to show public version
* For private version only the root xprv is returned
Example use-case:
```
> bitcoin-cli -regtest -named createwallet wallet_name=old descriptors=true
> bitcoin-cli -regtest -rpcwallet=old listdescriptors true | jq '.descriptors' > descriptors.txt
> bitcoin-cli -regtest -named createwallet wallet_name=new descriptors=true blank=true
> bitcoin-cli -regtest -rpcwallet=new importdescriptors "$(cat descriptors.txt)"
```
In case of watch-only wallet without private keys there will be following output:
```
error code: -4
error message:
Can't get descriptor string.
```
