The RPC documentation for `getblockchaininfo`, `getmininginfo` and
`getnetworkinfo` states that "warnings" returns "any network and
blockchain warnings". In practice, only a single warning is returned.
Fix that by returning all warnings as an array.
As a side benefit, cleans up the GetWarnings() logic.

2179e2c320 doc: i2p: improve `-i2pacceptincoming` mention (brunoerg)
Pull request description:
In i2p documentation, it says that "the first time Bitcoin Core connects to the I2P router,
it automatically generates a persistent I2P address and its corresponding private key by
default _**or if `-i2pacceptincoming=1` is set**_". This is weird, because `-i2pacceptincoming=1`
by itself does not have any effect. Moreover, `-i2pacceptincoming` is 1 by default anyway.

c87b0a0ff4 zmq: accept unix domain socket address for notifier (Matthew Zipkin)
Pull request description:
This is a follow-up to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27375, allowing ZMQ notifications to be published to a UNIX domain socket.
Fortunately, libzmq handles unix sockets already, all we really have to do to support it is allow the format in the actual option.
[libzmq](https://libzmq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/zmq_ipc.html) uses the prefix `ipc://` as opposed to `unix:` which is [used by Tor](https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/tor/-/blob/main/doc/man/tor.1.txt?ref_type=heads#L1475) and now also by [bitcoind](a85e5a7c9a/doc/release-notes-27375.md (L5)) so we need to switch that internally.
As far as I can tell, [LND](d20a764486/zmq.go (L38)) supports `ipc://` and `unix://` (notice the double slashes).
With this patch, LND can connect to bitcoind using unix sockets:
Example:
*bitcoin.conf*:
```
zmqpubrawblock=unix:/tmp/zmqsb
zmqpubrawtx=unix:/tmp/zmqst
```
*lnd.conf*:
```
bitcoind.zmqpubrawblock=ipc:///tmp/zmqsb
bitcoind.zmqpubrawtx=ipc:///tmp/zmqst
```

Pretty much all library packages were renamed in the 64-bit time_t
migration to add `t64` (even on 64-bit platforms).
Instead of complicating the doc with conditional package names, suggest
installing the `-dev` packages which still have the same name, and
besides that, are the right way to go about it as they contain the
"user facing" C++ headers needed to build against Qt5.
For Fedora, devel packages are already suggested.
This affects Ubuntu 24.04 and Debian Testing.

Pull request description:
Closes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/27252
UNIX domain sockets are a mechanism for inter-process communication that are faster than local TCP ports (because there is no need for TCP overhead) and potentially more secure because access is managed by the filesystem instead of serving an open port on the system.
There has been work on [unix domain sockets before](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/9979) but for now I just wanted to start on this single use-case which is enabling unix sockets from the client side, specifically connecting to a local Tor proxy (Tor can listen on unix sockets and even enforces strict curent-user-only access permission before binding) configured by `-onion=` or `-proxy=`
I copied the prefix `unix:` usage from Tor. With this patch built locally you can test with your own filesystem path (example):
`tor --SocksPort unix:/Users/matthewzipkin/torsocket/x`
`bitcoind -proxy=unix:/Users/matthewzipkin/torsocket/x`
Prep work for this feature includes:
- Moving where and how we create `sockaddr` and `Sock` to accommodate `AF_UNIX` without disturbing `CService`
- Expanding `Proxy` class to represent either a `CService` or a UNIX socket (by its file path)
Future work:
- Enable UNIX sockets for ZMQ (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27679)
- Enable UNIX sockets for I2P SAM proxy (some code is included in this PR but not tested or exposed to user options yet)
- Enable UNIX sockets on windows where supported
- Update Network Proxies dialog in GUI to support UNIX sockets

Pull request description:
Revives #17167. It allows whitelisting manual connections. Fixes#9923
Since there are some PRs/issues around this topic, I'll list some motivations/comments for whitelisting outbound connections from them:
- Speed-up tx relay/mempool sync for testing purposes (my personal motivation for this) - In #26970, theStack pointed out that we whitelist peers to speed up tx relay for fast mempool synchronization, however, since it applies only for inbound connections and considering the topology `node0 <--- node1 <---- node2 <--- ... <-- nodeN`, if a tx is submitted from any node other than node0, the mempool synchronization can take quite long.
- https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29058#issuecomment-1865155764 - "Before enabling -v2transport by default (which I'd image may happen after https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/24748) we could consider a way to force manual connections to be only-v1 or even only-v2 (disabling reconnect-with-v1). A possibility could be through a net permission flag, if https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27114 makes it in."
- https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17167#issuecomment-1168606032 - "This would allow us to use https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/25355 when making outgoing connections to all nodes, except to whitelisted ones for which we would use our persistent I2P address."
- Force-relay/mempool permissions for a node you intentionally connected to.

Delving Bitcoin discussion thread: https://delvingbitcoin.org/t/v3-transaction-policy-for-anti-pinning/340
Delving Bitcoin discussion for LN usage: https://delvingbitcoin.org/t/lightning-transactions-with-v3-and-ephemeral-anchors/418
Rationale:
- There are various pinning problems with RBF and our general ancestor/descendant limits. These policies help mitigate many pinning attacks and make package RBF feasible (see #28984 which implements package RBF on top of this). I would focus the most here on Rule 3 pinning. [1][2]
- Switching to a cluster-based mempool (see #27677 and #28676) requires the removal of CPFP carve out, which applications depend on. V3 + package RBF + ephemeral anchors + 1-parent-1-child package relay provides an intermediate solution.
V3 policy is for "Priority Transactions." [3][4] It allows users to opt in to more restrictive topological limits for shared transactions, in exchange for the more robust fee-bumping abilities that offers. Even though we don't have cluster limits, we are able to treat these transactions as having as having a maximum cluster size of 2.
Immediate benefits:
- You can presign a transaction with 0 fees (not just 1sat/vB!) and add a fee-bump later.
- Rule 3 pinning is reduced by a significant amount, since the attacker can only attach a maximum of 1000vB to your shared transaction.
This also enables some other cool things (again see #27463 for overall roadmap):
- Ephemeral Anchors
- Package RBF for these 1-parent-1-child packages. That means e.g. a commitment tx + child can replace another commitment tx using the child's fees.
- We can transition to a "single anchor" universe without worrying about package limit pinning. So current users of CPFP carve out would have something else to use.
- We can switch to a cluster-based mempool [5] (#27677#28676), which removes CPFP carve out [6].

[2]: A FAQ is "we need this for cluster mempool, but is this still necessary afterwards?" There are some pinning issues that are fixed here and not fully fixed in cluster mempool, so we will still want this or something similar afterward.

25dc87e6f8 libconsensus: deprecate (Cory Fields)
Pull request description:
This library has existed for nearly 10 years with very little known uptake or impact. It has become a maintenance burden. In several cases it dictates our code/library structure (for example necessitating LIBBITCOIN_CRYPTO_BASE), as well as build-system procedures (building multiple copies of object files especially for the lib).
Several discussions have arisen wrt migrating it to CMake and it has become difficult to justify adding more complexity for a library that is virtually unused anyway.
See for example the discussions:
https://github.com/hebasto/bitcoin/pull/41https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29123
And here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29180
Where it is pointed out that the libbitcoinconsensus functions are slower than those the internal bitcoind equivalents due to the missing sha2 implementations.
Instead, we (fanquake, hebasto, TheCharlatan, and I) propose simply not migrating it to CMake and letting it end with v27. Any remaining use-cases could be handled in the future by libbitcoinkernel.
If there are any users currently using libbitcoinconsensus, please chime in with your use-case!
Edit: Corrected final release to be v27.

ACK 25dc87e6f8 - this library has very little, if any impactful real world usage. It has been entirely broken (on various platforms) for long periods of its existence, where nobody even noticed. Pruning this out to save porting, and starting anew with the kernel, is the sane thing to do.
Tree-SHA512: baff2b3c4f76f520c96021035f751fdcb51bedf00e767660249e92a7bc7c5c176786bcf2c4cfe2d2351c200f932b39eb886bcfb22fbec824a41617590d6a1638
This library has existed for nearly 10 years with very little known uptake or
impact. It has become a maintenance burden. In several cases it dictates our
code/library structure (for example necessitating LIBBITCOIN_CRYPTO_BASE), as
well as build-system procedures (building multiple copies of object files
especially for the lib).
Several discussions have arisen wrt migrating it to CMake and it has become
difficult to justify adding more complexity for a library that is virtually
unused anyway.
See for example the discussions:
https://github.com/hebasto/bitcoin/pull/41https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29123
Instead, we (fanquake, hebasto, TheCharlatan, and I) propose simply not
migrating it to CMake and letting it end with v27. Any remaining use-cases
could be handled in the future by libbitcoinkernel.

fa7c751bd9 build: Bump clang minimum supported version to 14 (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Most supported operating systems ship with clang-14 (or later), so bump the minimum to that and allow new code to drop workarounds for previous clang bugs.
For reference:
* https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/clang (`clang-14`)
* https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/clang (`clang-14`)
* CentOS-like 8/9 Stream: All Clang versions from 15 to 17
* FreeBSD 12/13: All Clang versions from 15 to 16
* OpenSuse Tumbleweed ships with https://software.opensuse.org/package/clang (`clang17`); No idea about OpenSuse Leap
On operating systems where the clang version is not shipped by default, the user would have to use GCC, or install clang in a different way. For example:
* https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/g++ (g++-10)
* https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/g++-10
* https://apt.llvm.org/, or nix, or guix, or compile clang from source, ...

c5c76dc615 logging: refactor: pull prefix code out (Anthony Towns)
Pull request description:
Replace `LogPrint*` functions with severity based logging functions:
* `LogInfo(...)`, `LogWarning(...)`, `LogError(...)` for unconditional (uncategorised) logging (replaces `LogPrintf`)
* `LogDebug(CATEGORY, ...)` and `LogTrace(CATEGORY, ...)` for conditional logging (replaces `LogPrint`)
* `LogPrintLevel(CATEGORY, LEVEL, ...)` for when the level isn't known in advance, or a category needs to be added for an info/warning/error log message (mostly unchanged, but rarely needed)
Logs look roughly as they do now with `LogInfo` not having an `[info]` prefix, and `LogDebug` having a `[cat]` prefix, rather than a `[cat:debug]` prefix. This removes `BCLog::Level::None` entirely -- for `LogFlags::NONE` just use `Level::Info`, for any actual category, use `Level::Debug`.
Adds docs to developer-notes about when to use which level.
Adds `-loglevelalways=1` option so that you get `[net:debug]`, `[all:info]`, `[all:warning]` etc, which might be helpful for automated parsing, or just if you like everything to be consistent. Defaults to off to reduce noise in the default config, and to avoid unnecessary changes on upgrades.
Changes the behaviour of `LogPrintLevel(CATEGORY, BCLog::Level::Info, ...)` to be logged unconditionally, rather than only being an additional optional logging level in addition to trace and debug. Does not change the behaviour of `LogPrintLevel(NONE, Debug, ...)` and `LogPrintLevel(NONE, Trace, ...)` being no-ops.

fa6b053b5c mempool: persist with XOR (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Currently the `mempool.dat` file stores data received from remote peers as-is. This may be problematic when a program other than Bitcoin Core tries to interpret them by accident. For example, an anti-virus program or other program may scan the file and move it into quarantine, or delete it, or corrupt it.
While the local wallet is expected to re-submit any pending transactions, unrelated transactions may be missing from the mempool after a restart. This may cause fee estimates to be off, or may cause block relay to be slower.
Fix this, similar to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6650, by rolling a random XOR pattern over the dat file when writing or reading it.
Obviously this can only protect against programs that accidentally and unintentionally are trying to mess with the dat file. Any program that intentionally wants to mess with the dat file can still trivially do so.

Pull request description:
This PR adds offline signing tutorial. Fixes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/9492
Although there currently exists tutorials on external-signer and on multisig implemented on #24519 . The external-signer tutorial assumes a connected device and the multisig tutorial is only for multisig transactions and does not include using an offline wallet
- The tutorial uses signet(instead of regtest) to be as close as possible to mainnet

91d0888921 sync: unpublish LocksHeld() which is used only in sync.cpp (Vasil Dimov)
3df37e0c78 doc: clarify that LOCK() does AssertLockNotHeld() internally (Vasil Dimov)
Pull request description:
Constructs like
```cpp
AssertLockNotHeld(m);
LOCK(m);
```
are equivalent to (almost, modulo some logging differences, see below)
```cpp
LOCK(m);
```
for non-recursive mutexes, so it is ok to omit `AssertLockNotHeld()` in such cases. Requests to do the former keep coming during review process. `developer-notes.md` explicitly states "Combine annotations in function declarations with run-time asserts in function definitions", but that seems to be too strong or unclear. `LOCK()` is also a run-time assert in this case.
Also remove `LocksHeld()` from the public interface in `sync.h` since it is only used in `sync.cpp`.
