d93b794709 tests: improve wallet multisig descriptor test and docs (Michael Dietz)
Pull request description:
It is best to store all key origin information
(master key fingerprint and all derivation steps)
in the multisig descriptor. Being explicit with
this information should be beneficial if this approach is used with other wallets/signers (whether hardware or software). There is no harm including all of this with xpubs (if anything it simplifies the test code) and makes this example/docs more complete and safer incase it is referenced by others.

fa7462c67a build: Bump clang minimum supported version to 16 (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Most supported operating systems ship with clang-16 (or later), so bump the minimum to that and allow new code to drop workarounds for previous clang bugs.
For reference:
* https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/clang-16
* https://packages.ubuntu.com/noble/clang (clang-18)
* CentOS-like 8/9 Stream: All Clang versions from 16 to 17
* FreeBSD 12/13: All Clang versions from 16 to 18
* OpenSuse Tumbleweed ships with https://software.opensuse.org/package/clang (`clang18`); No idea about OpenSuse Leap
On operating systems where the clang version is not shipped by default, the user would have to use GCC, or install clang in a different way. For example:
* https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/g++ (g++-12)
* https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/g++ (g++-11)
* https://apt.llvm.org/, or nix, or guix, or compile clang from source, ...
**Ubuntu 22.04 LTS does not ship with clang-16**, so one of the above workarounds is needed there.
macOS 13 is unaffected, and the previous minimum requirement of Xcode15.0 remains, see also b1ba1b178f/.github/workflows/ci.yml (L93). For macOS 11 (Big Sur) and 12 (Monterey) you need to install a more recent version of llvm, this remains unchanged as well, see b1ba1b178f/doc/build-osx.md (L54).

Pull request description:
Adds a release note for TRUC policy which will be live in v28.0.
For clarity, replaces mentions of "v3" with "TRUC" in most places. Suggested in
- https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29496#discussion_r1629749583
- https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29496#discussion_r1624500904
I changed error strings from "v3-violation" to "TRUC-violation" but left v3 in the debug strings because I think it might be clearer for somebody who is debugging. Similarly, I left some variables unchanged because I think they're more descriptive this way, e.g. `tx_v3_from_v2_and_v3`. I'm happy to debate places that should or shouldn't be documented differently in this PR, whatever is clearest to everyone.

5da3967815 PackageV3Checks: Relax assumptions (Greg Sanders)
Pull request description:
Allows any 2 transaction package with no in-mempool ancestors to do package RBF when directly conflicting with other mempool clusters of size two or less.
Proposed validation steps:
1) If the transaction package is of size 1, legacy rbf rules apply.
2) Otherwise the transaction package consists of a (parent, child) pair with no other in-mempool ancestors (or descendants, obviously), so it is also going to create a cluster of size 2. If larger, fail.
3) The package rbf may not evict more than 100 transactions from the mempool(bip125 rule 5)
4) The package is a single chunk
5) Every directly conflicted mempool transaction is connected to at most 1 other in-mempool transaction (ie the cluster size of the conflict is at most 2).
6) Diagram check: We ensure that the replacement is strictly superior, improving the mempool
7) The total fee of the package, minus the total fee of what is being evicted, is at least the minrelayfee * size of the package (equivalent to bip125 rule 3 and 4)
Post-cluster mempool this will likely be expanded to general package rbf, but this is what we can safely support today.

bed29c481a refactor: remove unnecessary AppendWarning helper function (stickies-v)
Pull request description:
This PR:
- moves warnings from common to the node library and into the node namespace (as suggested in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29845#discussion_r1570069541)
- generalizes the warnings interface to `Warnings::Set()` and `Warnings::Unset()` methods, instead of having a separate function and globals for each warning. As a result, this simplifies the `kernel::Notifications` interface.
- removes warnings.cpp from the kernel library
- removes warning globals
- adds testing for the warning logic
Behaviour change introduced:
- the `-alertnotify` command is executed for all `KernelNotifications::warningSet` calls, which now also covers the `LARGE_WORK_INVALID_CHAIN` warning
- the GUI is updated automatically whenever a warning is (un)set, covering some code paths where it previously wouldn't be, e.g. when `node::AbortNode()` is called, or for the `LARGE_WORK_INVALID_CHAIN` warning
Some discussion points:
- ~is `const std::string& id` the best way to refer to warnings? Enums are an obvious alternative, but since we need to define warnings across libraries, strings seem like a straightforward solution.~ _edit: updated approach to use `node::Warning` and `kernel::Warning` enums._

Instead of having separate warning functions (and globals) for each
different warning that can be raised, encapsulate this logic into
a single class and allow to (un)set any number of warnings.
Introduces behaviour change:
- the `-alertnotify` command is executed for all
`KernelNotifications::warningSet` calls, which now also covers the
`LARGE_WORK_INVALID_CHAIN` warning.
- previously, warnings were returned based on a predetermined order,
e.g. with the "pre-release test build" warning always first. This
is no longer the case, and Warnings::GetMessages() will return
messages sorted by the id of the warning.
Removes warnings.cpp from kernel.

Pull request description:
Remove `fees.h`, `errors.h`, and `spanparsing.h` from the util library. Specifically:
- Move `Split` functions from `util/spanparsing.h` to `util/string.h`, using `util` namespace for clarity.
- Move remaining spanparsing functions to `script/parsing.h` since they are used for descriptor and miniscript parsing.
- Combine `util/fees.h` and `util/errors.h` into `common/messages.h` so there is a place for simple functions that generate user messages to live, and these functions are not part of the util library.
Motivation for this change is that the util library is a dependency of the kernel, and we should remove functionality from util that shouldn't be called by kernel code or kernel applications. These changes should also improve code organization and make functions easier to discover. Some of these same moves are (or were) part of #28690, but did not help with code organization, or made it worse, so it is better to move them and clean them up in the same PR so code only has to change one time.

429ec1aaaa refactor: Rename CTransaction::nVersion to version (Ava Chow)
27e70f1f5b consensus: Store transaction nVersion as uint32_t (Ava Chow)
Pull request description:
Given that the use of a transaction's nVersion is always as an unsigned int, it doesn't make sense to store it as signed and then cast it to unsigned everywhere it is used and displayed.
Since a few alternative implementations have recently been revealed to have made an error with this signedness that would have resulted in consensus failure, I think it makes sense for us to just make this always unsigned to make it clear that the version is treated as unsigned. This would also help us avoid future potential issues with signedness of this value.
I believe that this is safe and does not actually change what transactions would or would not be considered both standard and consensus valid. Within consensus, the only use of the version in consensus is in BIP68 validation which was already casting it to uint32_t. Within policy, although it is used as a signed int for the transaction version number check, I do not think that this change would change standardness. Standard transactions are limited to the range [1, 2]. Negative numbers would have fallen under the < 1 condition, but by making it unsigned, they are still non-standard under the > 2 condition.
Unsigned and signed ints are serialized and unserialized the same way so there is no change in serialization.

fa780e1c25 build: Remove --enable-gprof (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
It is unclear what benefit this option has, given that:
* `gprof` requires re-compilation (`perf` and other tools can instead be used on existing executables)
* `gprof` requires hardening to be disabled
* `gprof` doesn't work with `clang`
* `perf` is documented in the dev-notes, and test notes, and embedded into the functional test framework; `gprof` isn't
* Anyone really wanting to use it could pass the required flags to `./configure`
* I couldn't find any mention of the use of `gprof` in the discussions in this repo, apart from the initial pull request adding it (cfaac2a60f)
* Keeping it means that it needs to be maintained and ported to CMake
Fix all issues by removing it.

9013e2b97e Link to gen-bitcoin-conf.sh instead of bitcoin.conf placeholder (Epic Curious)
Pull request description:
Closes#30153.
This PR updates `doc/init.md` to mention generating an example bitcoin.conf instead of referencing the placeholder `share/examples/bitcoin.conf`. Also changes the code-formatted text to a markdown link.
## Background
- Two years ago, `share/examples/bitcoin.conf` was replaced with [a placeholder file](b483084d86). To see an example `bitcoin.conf`, the user now runs the `contrib/devtools/gen-bitcoin-conf.sh` script, which replaces the placeholder file with the parsed contents of `bitcoind --help`.
- The instructions in `init.md` about an example `bitcoin.conf` haven't changed significantly since they were [added almost 10 years ago](234bfbf6a5/doc/init.md (L39)). They should be updated to improve clarity.

This supports lcov 2.x in the sense that we are no-longer hardcoding
version specific options, and instead will use the `LCOV_OPTS` variable
(which is the more correct/flexible thing to do in any case). It's also
quite likely that devs are already having to pass extra options to lcov
2.x, given it's more stringent in terms of coverage generation and error
checking. See this thread for an example:

5deb0b024e build, test, doc: Temporarily remove Android-related stuff (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
Previously, our Android builds were geared towards generating APKs, which relied on Qt. However, after migrating to C++20, compiling for Android became unfeasible due to Qt 5.15's compatibility limitations with NDK only up to r25, which includes an outdated embedded libc++ (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/29360).
All removed stuff will be reinstated after migrating the build system to CMake and upgrading Qt to version 6.x.
This PR makes possible a clean migration to the CMake-based build system as it removes code, which is not used at this moment.

Pull request description:
First few commits of https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/28984 to set the stage for the package RBF logic.
These refactors are preparation for evaluating an RBF in a multi-proposed-transaction context instead of only a single proposed transaction. Also, carveouts and sibling evictions only should work in single RBF cases so add logic to preclude multi-tx cases in the future.
No behavior changes aside from bailing earlier from failed carve-outs.

855dd8d592 system: use %LOCALAPPDATA% as default datadir on windows (Matthew Zipkin)
Pull request description:
Closes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/2391
This PR changes the default datadir location on Windows from `C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin` to `C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Bitcoin`. This change only applies to fresh installs. To preserve backwards compatibility, on startup we check for the existence of `C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin\chainstate` and if it is there, we continue using the "Roaming" directory as the default datadir location.
[Note that in Windows 11 this change may be moot:](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/api/windows.storage.applicationdata.roamingfolder?view=winrt-22621)
> Roaming data and settings is no longer supported as of Windows 11. The recommended replacement is [Azure App Service](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/). Azure App Service is widely supported, well documented, reliable, and supports cross-platform/cross-ecosystem scenarios such as iOS, Android and web. Settings stored here no longer roam (as of Windows 11), but the settings store is still available.

The behavior is not new, but this rule exits earlier than before.
Previously, a carve out could have been granted in PreChecks() but then
nullified in PackageMempoolChecks() when CheckPackageLimits() is called
with the default limits.
