Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#23711: docs: RBF policy and mempool limit exemptions 
82858bab64 [doc] CPFP carve out and single-conflict RBF exemption (glozow)
1fd49eb498 [doc] clarify RBF difference from BIP125 (glozow)
919ae8b8cd [doc] current rbf policy (glozow)

Pull request description:

  Since RBF was first implemented and BIP125 was written, our code has changed, people have highlighted implementation differences, and some people have proposed further changes to it. Many people seem to support the idea of documenting our _current_ RBF policy as it stands today.

  As the ancestor/descendant limit carve-out exemptions are very related to RBF, it seemed appropriate to group them with this PR.

  Related to #22806 - it seems that these policies are the most confusing for people, or at least the most documentation-requested.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
