Many options are extremely technical, and refer internals, making it
difficult to translate usefully. This came up in discussion of e.g.
#10949. If a message is not understood by translators (which are
typically end-users, not developers) they'll either translate it
literally, making it harder to understand instead of easier, with the
added drawback of the user no longer being able to google it.
Also the translation was only working for bitcoin-qt as with
the console programs, there is no translation backend. So it was
injecting never-used translation messages for bitcoin-cli, -tx.
For these reasons, stop translating options help completely. This should
not affect the output **in any way** except for bitcoin-qt when a
non-English language is configured in the locale.
This implements #10962.
fac1223a56 Cache witness hash in CTransaction (MarcoFalke)
faab55fbb1 Make CMutableTransaction constructor explicit (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
This speeds up:
* compactblocks (v2)
* ATMP
* validation and miner (via `BlockWitnessMerkleRoot`)
* sigcache (see also unrelated #13204)
* rpc and rest (nice, but irrelevant)
This presumably slows down rescan, which uses a `CTransaction` and its `GetHash`, but never uses the `GetWitnessHash`. The slow down is proportional to the number of witness transactions in the rescan window. I.e. early in the chain there should be no measurable slow down. Later in the chain, there should be a slow down, but acceptable given the speedups in the modules mentioned above.

Updating the input explicitly requires the caller to present a mutable
input, which more clearly communicates the effects and intent of the method.
In most cases, this input is already immediately available and need not be
looked up.

This flattens out a for loop and gets rid of the then unused vector `txVariants`.

This patch removes the need for the intermediary Base58 type
CBitcoinAddress, by providing {Encode,Decode,IsValid}Destination
function that directly operate on the conversion between strings
and CTxDestination.
Some people keep thinking that MAX_BLOCK_BASE_SIZE is a separate
size limit from the weight limit when it fact it is superfluous,
and used in early tests before the witness data has been
validated or just to compute worst case sizes. The size checks
that use it would not behave any differently consensus wise
if they were eliminated completely.
Its correct value is not independently settable but is a function
of the weight limit and weight formula.
This patch just eliminates it and uses the scale factor as
required to compute the worse case constants.
It also moves the weight factor out of primitives into consensus,
which is a more logical place for it.

0c50909 testcases: explicitly specify transaction version 1 (John Newbery)

1814b08 add p2sh and segwit options to bitcoin-tx outscript command (Stanislas Marion)
This commit enhances bitcoin-tx so all remaining standard TXO types can be created:
- Pay to Pub Key
- Multi-sig
- bare multi-sig
- multi-sig in Pay To Script Hash
- multi-sig in Pay to Witness Script Hash
- multi-sig in Pay to Witness Script Hash, wrapped in P2SH
- Pay to Witness Pub Key Hash
- Pay to Witness Pub Key Hash, wrapped in P2SH
- Pay to Witness Script Hash
- Pay to Witness Script Hash, wrapped in P2SH
- `--help`, `--version` etc should exit with `0` i.e. no error ("not enough args" case should still trigger an error)
- error reading config file should exit with `1`
Slightly refactor AppInitRPC/AppInitRawTx to return standard exit codes (EXIT_FAILURE/EXIT_SUCCESS) or CONTINUE_EXECUTION (-1)

libsecp256k1's API changed, so update key.cpp to use it.
Libsecp256k1 now has explicit context objects, which makes it completely thread-safe.
In turn, keep an explicit context object in key.cpp, which is explicitly initialized
destroyed. This is not really pretty now, but it's more efficient than the static
initialized object in key.cpp (which made for example bitcoin-tx slow, as for most of
its calls, libsecp256k1 wasn't actually needed).
This also brings in the new blinding support in libsecp256k1. By passing in a random
seed, temporary variables during the elliptic curve computations are altered, in such
a way that if an attacker does not know the blind, observing the internal operations
leaks less information about the keys used. This was implemented by Greg Maxwell.

If uint256() constructor takes a string, uint256(0) will become
dangerous when uint256 does not take integers anymore (it will go
through std::string(const char*) making a NULL string, and the explicit
keyword is no help).
