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.
796b020c37 wallet: add taproot support to external signer (Sjors Provoost)
Pull request description:
Builds on #22558 (merged on 2022-06-28).
[HWI 2.1.0](https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI/releases/tag/2.1.0) or newer is required to import and use taproot descriptors. Older versions will work, but won't import a taproot descriptor.
Tested with HWI 2.1.1:
* Trezor T (firmware v2.5.1) on Signet: signs, change detection works
* Ledger Nano S (firmware 2.1.0, Bitcoin app 2.0.6): signs, change detection works
Only the most basic `tr(key)` descriptor is supported, script path spending is completely untested (if it works at all).

If there are multiple external signers, `GetExternalSigner()` will
just pick the first one in the list. If the user has two or more
hardware wallets connected at the same time, he might not notice this.
This PR adds a check and fails with suitable message.
_Motivation_
Currently, the wallet uses a fSubtractFeeAmount (SFFO) flag on the
recipients objects for all forms of sending calls. According to the
commit discussion, this flag was chiefly introduced to permit sweeping
without manually calculating the fees of transactions. However, the flag
leads to unintuitive behavior and makes it more complicated to test
many wallet RPCs exhaustively. We proposed to introduce a dedicated
`sendall` RPC with the intention to cover this functionality.
Since the proposal, it was discovered in further discussion that our
proposed `sendall` rpc and SFFO have subtly different scopes of
operation.
• sendall:
Use _specific UTXOs_ to pay a destination the remainder after fees.
• SFFO:
Use a _specific budget_ to pay an address the remainder after fees.
While `sendall` will simplify cases of spending from specific UTXOs,
emptying a wallet, or burning dust, we realized that there are some
cases in which SFFO is used to pay other parties from a limited budget,
which can often lead to the creation of change outputs. This cannot be
easily replicated using `sendall` as it would require manual computation
of the appropriate change amount.
As such, sendall cannot replace all uses of SFFO, but it still has a
different use case and will aid in simplifying some wallet calls and
numerous wallet tests.
_Sendall call details_
The proposed sendall call builds a transaction from a specific subset of
the wallet's UTXO pool (by default all of them) and assigns the funds to
one or more receivers. Receivers can either be specified with a specific
amount or receive an equal share of the remaining unassigned funds. At
least one recipient must be provided without assigned amount to collect
the remainder. The `sendall` call will never create change. The call has
a `send_max` option that changes the default behavior of spending all
UTXOs ("no UTXO left behind"), to maximizing the output amount of the
transaction by skipping uneconomic UTXOs. The `send_max` option is
incompatible with providing a specific set of inputs.
The previous diff touched most files in ./test/, so bump the headers to
avoid having to touch them again for a bump later.

This commit moves the ExternalSigner class and RPC methods out of the wallet module.
The enumeratesigners RPC can be used without a wallet since #21417.
With additional modifications external signers could be used without a wallet in general, e.g. via signrawtransaction.
The signerdisplayaddress RPC is ranamed to walletdisplayaddress because it requires wallet context.
A future displayaddress RPC call without wallet context could take a descriptor argument.
This commit fixes a rpc_help.py failure when configured with --disable-wallet.
