Pull request description:
`Span` has some issues:
* It does not support fixed-size spans, which are available through `std::span`.
* It is confusing to have it available and in use at the same time with `std::span`.
* It does not obey the standard library iterator build hardening flags. See https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/31272 for a discussion. For example, this allows to catch issues like the one fixed in commit fabeca3458.
Both types are type-safe and can even implicitly convert into each other in most contexts.
However, exclusively using `std::span` seems less confusing, so do it here with a scripted-diff.

Historically, the headers have been bumped some time after a file has
been touched. Do it now to avoid having to touch them again in the
future for that reason.

Coming from #29073.
Applied ryanofsky suggested changes on https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/29073#issuecomment-2274237242 with few modifications coming from https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18338#issuecomment-605060348.
The only point I did not tackle from https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18338#issuecomment-605060348 is:
> * Move log print and flush out of ReleaseWallet into CWallet destructor
Because it would mean every `CWallet` object would flush data to disk during destruction. Which is not necessary for wallet tool utilities and unit tests.

9d1dbbd4ce scripted-diff: Fix bitcoin_config_h includes (TheCharlatan)
Pull request description:
As mentioned in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/26924#issuecomment-1403449932 and https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29263#issuecomment-1922334399, it is currently not safe to remove `bitcoin-config.h` includes from headers because some unrelated file might be depending on it.
See also #26972 for discussion.
Solve this by including the file directly everywhere it's required, regardless of whether or not it's already included by another header.
There should be no functional change here, but it will allow us to safely remove includes from headers in the future.
~I'm afraid it's a bit tedious to reproduce these commits, but it's reasonably straightforward:~
Edit: See note below
```bash
# All commands executed from the src/ subdir.
# Collect all tokens from bitcoin-config.h.in
# Isolate the tokens and remove blank lines
# Replace newlines with | and remove the last trailing one
# Collect all files which use these tokens
# Filter out subprojects (proper forwarding can be verified from Makefiles)
# Filter out .rc files
# Save to a text file
git grep -E -l `grep undef config/bitcoin-config.h.in | cut -d" " -f2 | grep -v '^$' | tr '\n' '|' | sed 's/|$//'` | grep -v -e "^leveldb/" -e "^secp256k1/" -e "^crc32c/" -e "^minisketch/" -e "^Makefile" -e "\.rc$" > files-with-config-include.txt
# Find all files from the above list which don't include bitcoin-config.h
git grep -L -E "config/bitcoin-config.h" -- `cat files-with-config-include.txt`
# Include them manually with the exception of some files in crypto:
# crypto/sha256_arm_shani.cpp crypto/sha256_avx2.cpp crypto/sha256_sse41.cpp crypto/sha256_x86_shani.cpp
# These are exceptions which don't use bitcoin-config.h, rather the Makefile.am adds these cppflags manually.
# Commit changes. This should match the first commit of this PR.
# Use the same search as above to find all files which DON'T use any config tokens
git grep -E -L `grep undef config/bitcoin-config.h.in | cut -d" " -f2 | grep -v '^$' | tr '\n' '|' | sed 's/|$//'` | grep -v -e "^leveldb/" -e "^secp256k1/" -e "^crc32c/" -e "^minisketch/" -e "^Makefile" -e "\.rc$" > files-without-config-include.txt
# Manually remove the includes and commit changes. This should match the second commit of this PR.

The second command holds a list of files and directories that should not be processed. These include subtree directories as well as some crypto files that already get their symbols through the makefile.

The fourth command checks for missing bitcoin-config headers in .h files and adds the header if it is missing.
The fifth command checks for unneeded bitcoin-config headers in sources files and removes the header if it is unneeded.

e9379f1ffa rpc, wallet: Include information about blank flag (Andrew Chow)
Pull request description:
The `blank` wallet flag is used to indicate that the wallet intentionally does not have any keys, scripts, or descriptors, and it prevents the automatic generation of those things for such a wallet. Once the wallet contains any of those data, it is unnecessary, and possibly incorrect, to have `blank` set. This PR fixes a few places where this was not properly happening. It also adds a test for this unset behavior.

and add the walletutil.h include header for WALLET_FLAG_AVOID_REUSE that was
already missing before this change.
WALLET_FLAG_CAVEATS is only used in one RPC, so no need to encumber wallet.h and
wallet.cpp with it, along with all of the files that include wallet.h during
their compilation. Also apply clang-format per:
git diff -U0 HEAD~1.. | ./contrib/devtools/clang-format-diff.py -p1 -i -v
This new "warnings" field is a JSON array of strings intended to replace the
"warning" string field in these four RPCs, to better handle returning multiple
warning messages and for consistency with other wallet RPCs.

00a0861181 Pass all characters to SecureString including nulls (John Moffett)
Pull request description:
`SecureString` is a `std::string` specialization with a secure allocator. However, in practice it's treated like a C- string (no explicit length and null-terminated). This can cause unexpected and potentially insecure behavior. For instance, if a user enters a passphrase with embedded null characters (which is possible through Qt and the JSON-RPC), it will ignore any characters after the first null, potentially giving the user a false sense of security.
Instead of assigning to `SecureString` via `std::string::c_str()`, assign it via a `std::string_view` of the original. This explicitly captures the size and still doesn't make any extraneous copies in memory.
Note to reviewers, the following all compile identically in recent `GCC` (x86-64 and ARM64) with `-O2` (and `-std=c++17`):
```C++
std::string orig_string;
std::cin >> orig_string;
SecureString s;
s.reserve(100);
// The following all compile identically
s = orig_string;
s = std::string_view{orig_string};
s.assign(std::string_view{orig_string});
s.assign(orig_string.data(), orig_string.size());
```
So it's largely a matter of preference. However, one thing to keep in mind is that we want to avoid making unnecessary copies of any sensitive data in memory.
Something like `SecureString s{orig_string};` is still invalid and probably unwanted in our case, since it'd get treated as a short string and optimized away from the secure allocator. I presume that's the reason for the `reserve()` calls.
Fixes#27067.

`SecureString` is a `std::string` specialization with
a secure allocator. However, it's treated like a C-
string (no explicit length and null-terminated). This
can cause unexpected behavior. For instance, if a user
enters a passphrase with an embedded null character
(which is possible through Qt and the JSON-RPC), it will
ignore any characters after the null, giving the user
a false sense of security.
Instead of assigning `SecureString` via `std::string::c_str()`,
assign it via a `std::string_view` of the original. This
explicitly captures the size and doesn't make any extraneous
copies in memory.
Since migration reloads the wallet, the wallet will always be locked
unless the passphrase is given. migratewallet can now take the
passphrase in order to unlock the wallet for migration.
An overload of MigrateLegacyToDescriptor is added which takes the wallet
name. The original that took a wallet pointer is still available, it
just gets the name, closes the wallet, and calls the new overload.
