Have testBlockValidity hold cs_main instead of caller 
The goal of interfaces is to eventually run in their own process,
so we can't use EXCLUSIVE_LOCKS_REQUIRED in their declaration.

However TestBlockValidaty will crash (in its call to ConnectBlock)
if the tip changes from under the proposed block.

Have the testBlockValidity implementation  hold the lock instead,
and non-fatally check for this condition.

Internal c++ interfaces

The following interfaces are defined here:

  • Chain — used by wallet to access blockchain and mempool state. Added in #14437, #14711, #15288, and #10973.

  • ChainClient — used by node to start & stop Chain clients. Added in #14437.

  • Node — used by GUI to start & stop bitcoin node. Added in #10244.

  • Wallet — used by GUI to access wallets. Added in #10244.

  • Handler — returned by handleEvent methods on interfaces above and used to manage lifetimes of event handlers.

  • Init — used by multiprocess code to access interfaces above on startup. Added in #19160.

  • Ipc — used by multiprocess code to access Init interface across processes. Added in #19160.

The interfaces above define boundaries between major components of bitcoin code (node, wallet, and gui), making it possible for them to run in different processes, and be tested, developed, and understood independently. These interfaces are not currently designed to be stable or to be used externally.
