0d9d2a1f7c Only update the updateSmartFeeLabel once in sync (Jonas Schnelli)
Pull request description:
Calling `updateSmartFeeLabel` and therefore `estimateSmartFee` is pointless during IBD.
GUI freezes appear because `estimateSmartFee` competes with `processBlock` for the `m_cs_fee_estimator` lock leading to multiple seconds of blocking the GUI thread in `updateSmartFeeLabel`.

Checking for fHelp, or the size of the args, is dead code because:
* fHelp is always false (src/qt/test/rpcnestedtests.cpp)
* It is already implicitly called by RPCHelpMan::Check

Pull request description:
This PR paves the way for de-globalizing `g_chainman` entirely by removing the usage of `g_chainman` in the following functions/methods:
- `~CMainCleanup`
- `CChainState::FlushStateToDisk`
- `UnloadBlockIndex`
The remaining direct uses of `g_chainman` are as follows:
1. In initialization codepaths:
- `AppTests`
- `AppInitMain`
- `TestingSetup::TestingSetup`
2. `::ChainstateActive`
3. `LookupBlockIndex`
- Note: `LookupBlockIndex` is used extensively throughout the codebase and require a much larger set of changes, therefore I've left it out of this initial PR

f1ee37319a wallet: Reload previously loaded wallets on GUI startup (Andrew Chow)
Pull request description:
Enable the GUI to also use the load_on_startup feature. Wallets loaded in the GUI always have load_on_startup=true. When they are unloaded from the GUI, load_on_startup=false.
To facilitate this change, UpdateWalletSetting is moved into the wallet module and called from within LoadWallet, RemoveWallet, and Createwallet. This change does not actually touch the GUI code but rather the wallet functions that are shared between the GUI and RPC.

jonasschnelli:
Tested ACK f1ee37319a - works as expected. Wallets loaded via bitcoin-cli (in `-server` mode) or through the RPC console won't be loaded on startup but wallets loaded via the GUI menu will.

This removes a source of complexity and indirection that makes it harder to
understand path checking code. Path checks will be simplified in upcoming
commits.
There is no change in behavior in this commit other than a slightly more
descriptive error message in `loadwallet` if the default "" wallet can't be
found. (The error message is improved more in upcoming commit "wallet: Remove
path checking code from loadwallet RPC".)

The new NodeContext::wallet_client pointer will also be needed to eliminate global wallet variables like ::vpwallets in #19101, because createWallet(), loadWallet(), getWallets(), etc methods called by the GUI need a way to get a reference to the list of open wallets if it is no longer a global variable.

ca185cf5a1 doc: Document differences in bitcoind and bitcoin-qt locale handling (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
Document differences in `bitcoind` and `bitcoin-qt` locale handling.
Since this seems to be the root cause to the locale dependency issues we've seen over the years I thought it was worth documenting :)
Note that 1.) `QLocale` (used by Qt), 2.) C locale (used by locale-sensitive C standard library functions/POSIX functions and some parts of the C++ standard library such as `std::to_string`) and 3.) C++ locale (used by the C++ input/output library) are three separate things. This comment is about the perhaps surprising interference with the C locale (2) that takes place as part of the Qt initialization.

Add WalletClient interface so node interface is cleaner and don't need
wallet-specific methods.
The new NodeContext::wallet_client pointer will also be needed to eliminate
global wallet variables like ::vpwallets, because createWallet(), loadWallet(),
getWallets(), etc methods called by the GUI need a way to get a reference to
the list of open wallets if it is no longer a global variable.
Also tweaks splash screen registration for load wallet events to be delayed
until after wallet client is created.
This is needed to allow bitcoin-gui to connect to existing node process with
-ipcconnect instead of spawning a new process. It's possible to spawn a new
bitcoin-node process without knowing the current data dir or network, but
connecting to an existing bitcoin-node requires knowing the datadir and network
first.
No change in behavior. Replacing references with pointers allows Node interface
creation to be delayed until later during gui startup next commit to support
implementing -ipcconnect option
Change gui code to use gArgs, Params() functions directly instead of going
through interfaces::Node.
Remotely accessing bitcoin-node ArgsManager from bitcoin-gui works fine in
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10102, when bitcoin-gui spawns a new
bitcoin-node process and controls its startup, but for bitcoin-gui to support
-ipcconnect option in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/19461 and connect
to an existing bitcoin-node process, it needs ability to parse arguments itself
before connecting out.
This change also simplifies https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10102 a
bit, by making the bitcoin-gui -> bitcoin-node startup sequence more similar to
the bitcoin-node -> bitcoin-wallet startup sequence where the parent process
parses arguments and passes them to the child process instead of the parent
process using the child process to parse arguments.
356988e200 util: make EncodeBase58Check consume Spans (Sebastian Falbesoner)
f0fce0675d util: make EncodeBase58 consume Spans (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
This PR improves the interfaces for the functions `EncodeBase58{Check}` by using Spans, in a similar fashion to e.g. PRs #19660, #19687. Note that on the master branch there are currently two versions of `EncodeBase58`: one that takes two pointers (marking begin and end) and another one that takes a `std::vector<unsigned char>` const-ref. The PR branch only leaves one generic Span-interface, both simplifying the interface and allowing more generic containers to be passed. The same is done for `EncodeBase58Check`, where only one interface existed but it's more generic now (e.g. a std::array can be directly passed, as done in the benchmarks).
