6abe772a17 contrib: Add asmap-tool (Fabian Jahr)
Pull request description:
This adds `asmap.py` and `asmap-tool.py` from sipa's `nextgen` branch: https://github.com/sipa/asmap/tree/nextgen
The motivation is that we should maintain the tooling for de- and encoding asmap files within the bitcoin core repository because it is not possible to use an asmap file that is not encoded.
We already had an earlier version of `asmap.py` within the seeds contrib tools. The newer version only had a small amount of changes and is still compatible, so the old version is removed from contrib/seeds and the new version is made available to `makeseeds.py`.

Pull request description:
`submitpackage` requires the package to be topologically sorted with the child being the last element in the array, but this is not documented in the RPC method or the error messages.
Also sneaking in some other minor improvements that I found while going through the code:
- Informing the user that `package` needs to be an array of length between `1` and `MAX_PACKAGE_COUNT` is confusing when `IsChildWithPackage()` requires that the package size >= 2. Remove this check to avoid code duplication and sending a confusing error message.
- fixups to the `submitpackage` examples

98570fe29b test: add coverage for parsing cryptographically invalid pubkeys (Sebastian Falbesoner)
c740b154d1 rpc: use `HexToPubKey` helper for all legacy pubkey-parsing RPCs (Sebastian Falbesoner)
100e8a75bf rpc: check and throw specific pubkey parsing errors in `HexToPubKey` (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
Parsing legacy public keys can fail for three reasons (in this order):
- pubkey is not in hex
- pubkey has an invalid length (not 33 or 65 bytes for compressed/uncompressed, respectively)
- pubkey is crytographically invalid, i.e. is not on curve (`CPubKey.IsFullyValid()` check)
Many RPCs currently perform these checks manually with different error messages, even though we already have a `HexToPubKey` helper. This PR puts all three checks in this helper (the length check was done on the call-sites before), adds specific error messages for each case, and consequently uses it for all RPCs that parse legacy pubkeys. This leads to deduplicated code and also to more consistent and detailed error messages for the user.
Affected RPC calls are `createmultisig`, `addmultisigaddress`, `importpubkey`, `importmulti`, `fundrawtransaction`, `walletcreatefundedpsbt`, `send` and `sendall`.
Note that the error code (-5 a.k.a. `RPC_INVALID_ADDRESS_OR_KEY`) doesn't change in any of the causes, so the changes are not breaking RPC API compatibility. Only the messages are more specific.
The last commits adds test coverage for the cryptographically invalid (not-on-curve) pubkey case which wasn't exercised before.

fb9f150759 gui: fix misleading signmessage error with segwit (willcl-ark)
Pull request description:
As described in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/10542 (and numerous other places), message signing in Bitcoin Core does not support "signing with a segwit address" and likely will not in the foreseeable future, or at least until a new message-signing standard is agreed upon.
Therefore update the possibly misleading error message presented to the user in the GUI to detail more specifically the reason their message cannot be signed, in the case that a non P2PKH address is entered.
This change takes the [suggested wording](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/10542#issuecomment-1960313569) from @adiabat.
Perhaps with this we can close https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/10542 ?

fa09451f8e Add lint check for bitcoin-config.h include IWYU pragma (MarcoFalke)
dddd40ba82 scripted-diff: Add IWYU pragma keep to bitcoin-config.h includes (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
The `bitcoin-config.h` includes have issues:
* The header is incompatible with iwyu, because symbols may be defined or not defined. So the `IWYU pragma: keep` is needed to keep the include when a symbol is not defined on a platform. Compare the previous discussion in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29408#issuecomment-1948959711
* Guarding the includes by `HAVE_CONFIG_H` is verbose and brittle. Now that all build config dependencies have been removed from low level headers, the benefits are questionable, and the guard can be removed. The linter could also be tricked by guarding the include by `#if defined(HAVE_C0NFIG_H)` (`O` replaced by `0`).

42fb5311b1 rpc: return warnings as an array instead of just a single one (stickies-v)
Pull request description:
The RPC documentation for `getblockchaininfo`, `getmininginfo` and `getnetworkinfo` states that "warnings" returns "any network and blockchain warnings". In practice, only a single warning (i.e. the latest one that is set) is returned, the other ones are ignored.
Fix that by returning all warnings as an array.
As a side benefit, clean up the GetWarnings() logic.
Since this PR changes the RPC result schema, I've added release notes. Users can temporarily revert to the old results by using `-deprecatedrpc=warnings`, until it's removed in a future version.
---
Some historical context from git log:
- when `GetWarnings` was introduced in 401926283a, it was used in the `getinfo` RPC, where only a [single error/warning was returned](401926283a (diff-7442c48d42cd5455a79915a0f00cce5e13359db46437a32b812876edb0a5ccddR250)) (similar to how it is now).
- later on, "warnings" RPC response fields were introduced, e.g. in ef2a3de25c, with the description [stating](ef2a3de25c (diff-1021bd3c74415ad9719bd764ad6ca35af5dfb33b1cd863c0be49bdf52518af54R411)) that it returned "any network warnings" but in practice still only a single warning was returned

63317103c9 miniscript: make operator_mst consteval (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
It seems modern compilers don't realize that all invocations of operator""_mst can be evaluated at compile time, despite the `constexpr` keyword.
Since C++20, we can force them to evaluate at compile time using `consteval`, turning all the miniscript type constants into actual compile-time constants.
This should give a nice but not very important speedup for miniscript logic, but it's also a way to start testing C++20 features.

can be evaluated at compile time, despite the constexpr keyword.
Since C++20, we can force them to evaluate at compile time, turning all the
miniscript type constants into actual compile-time constants.
It appears that MSVC does not support consteval operator"" when used inside
certain expressions. For the few places where this happens, define a
constant outside the operator call.

As described in #10542 (and numerous other places), message signing in
Bitcoin Core only supports message signing using P2PKH addresses, at
least until a new message-signing standard is agreed upon.
Therefore update the possibly-misleading error message presented to the
user in the GUI to detail more specifically the reason their message
cannot be signed, in the case that a non P2PKH address is entered.
Now that CXXFLAGS are back in user control, I don't think there's a

Anyone can suppress warnings from third-party code by

b50d127a77 refactor: Make 64-bit shift explicit (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
This PR fixes MSVC warning [C4334](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/error-messages/compiler-warnings/compiler-warning-level-3-c4334) in the fuzzing code. Similar to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/26252.
All `DisableSpecificWarnings` dropped from `fuzz.vcxproj` as all remained are inherited from `common.init.vcxproj`.
Required to simplify warning suppression porting to the CMake-based build system.

ec1f1abfef test:Validate UTXO snapshot with coin_height > base_height & amount > money_supply (jrakibi)
Pull request description:
### Ensure snapshot loading fails for coins exceeding base height
**Objective**: This test verifies that snapshot loading is correctly rejected for coins with a height greater than the base height.
**Update**:
- Added `test_invalid_snapshot_wrong_coin_code` to `feature_assumeutxo.py`.
- The test artificially sets a coin's height above 299 in a snapshot and checks for load failure.
- Edit: Added a test case for outputs whose amounts surpass the MAX_MONEY supply limit.
This implementation addresses the request for enhancing `assumeutxo` testing as outlined in issue #28648
---
**Edit: This is an explanation on how I arrive at content values: b"\x84\x58" and b"\xCA\xD2\x8F\x5A"**
You can use this tool to decode the utxo snapshot https://github.com/jrakibi/utxo-live
Here’s an overview of how it’s done:
The serialization format for a UTXO in the snapshot is as follows:
1. Transaction ID (txid) - 32 bytes
2. Output Index (outnum)- 4 bytes
3. VARINT (code) - A varible-length integer encoding the height and whether the transaction is a coinbase. The format of this VARINT is (height << 1) | coinbase_flag.
4. VARINT (amount_v) - A variable-length integer that represents a compressed format of the output amount (in satoshis).
For the test cases mentioned:
* **`b"\x84\x58"`** - This value corresponds to a VARINT representing the height and coinbase flag. Once we decode this code, we can extract the height and coinbase using `height = code_decoded >> 1` and `coinbase = code_decoded & 0x01`. In our case, with code_decoded = 728, it results in `height = 364` and `coinbase = 0`.
* **`b"\xCA\xD2\x8F\x5A"`** - This byte sequence represents a compressed amount value. The decompression function takes this value and translates it into a full amount in satoshis. In our case, the decompression of this amount translates to a number larger than the maximum allowed value of coins (21 million BTC)

Pull request description:
This PR removes remaining code that is unused within the cpp-subprocess module (templates and commented out code). Happy to add more removals if anyone finds more unused parts. Note that there are some API functions of the `Popen` class that we don't use, e.g. `wait()`, `pid()`, `poll()`, `kill()`, but they sound IMHO common enough to be useful in the future, so not sure how deep we should go there.
