Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#22544 : cli -addrinfo: drop torv2; torv3 becomes onion per GetNetworkName()

49d503aefa doc: update -addrinfo in release-notes.md and tor.md (Jon Atack)
75ea9ecf11 cli -addrinfo: drop torv2, torv3 becomes onion per GetNetworkName() (Jon Atack)

Pull request description:

  #22050 removed torv2 support from 22.0. For 23.0 and subsequent releases, we can probably remove torv2 from -addrinfo.

  before
  ```
    "addresses_known": {
      "ipv4": 58305,
      "ipv6": 5138,
      "torv2": 0,
      "torv3": 5441,
      "i2p": 14,
      "total": 68898
    }
  ```
  after
  ```
    "addresses_known": {
      "ipv4": 58305,
      "ipv6": 5138,
      "onion": 5441,
      "i2p": 14,
      "total": 68898
    }
  ```
  Per the naming of `netbase.{h, cpp}::GetNetworkName()`, torv3 becomes onion, which is what is printed in the output of getpeerinfo, getnetworkinfo and getnodeaddresses.

Raw Blame History

After branching off for a major version release of Bitcoin Core, use this template to create the initial release notes draft.

The release notes draft is a temporary file that can be added to by anyone. See /doc/developer-notes.md#release-notes for the process.

Create the draft, named "version Release Notes Draft" (e.g. "22.0 Release Notes Draft"), as a collaborative wiki in:

https://github.com/bitcoin-core/bitcoin-devwiki/wiki/

Before the final release, move the notes back to this git repository.

version Release Notes Draft

Bitcoin Core version version is now available from:

https://bitcoincore.org/bin/bitcoin-core-*version*/

This release includes new features, various bug fixes and performance improvements, as well as updated translations.

Please report bugs using the issue tracker at GitHub:

How to Upgrade

If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely shut down (which might take a few minutes in some cases), then run the installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux).

Upgrading directly from a version of Bitcoin Core that has reached its EOL is possible, but it might take some time if the data directory needs to be migrated. Old wallet versions of Bitcoin Core are generally supported.

Compatibility

Bitcoin Core is supported and extensively tested on operating systems using the Linux kernel, macOS 10.14+, and Windows 7 and newer. Bitcoin Core should also work on most other Unix-like systems but is not as frequently tested on them. It is not recommended to use Bitcoin Core on unsupported systems.

Notable changes

P2P and network changes

A bitcoind node will no longer rumour addresses to inbound peers by default. They will become eligible for address gossip after sending an ADDR, ADDRV2, or GETADDR message. (#21528)

Updated RPCs

New RPCs

Build System

Files

On startup, the list of banned hosts and networks (via setban RPC) in banlist.dat is ignored and only banlist.json is considered. Bitcoin Core version 22.x is the only version that can read banlist.dat and also write it to banlist.json. If banlist.json already exists, version 22.x will not try to translate the banlist.dat into json. After an upgrade, listbanned can be used to double check the parsed entries. (#22570)

New settings

Updated settings

Tools and Utilities

Update -getinfo to return data in a user-friendly format that also reduces vertical space. (#21832)
CLI -addrinfo now returns a single field for the number of onion addresses known to the node instead of separate torv2 and torv3 fields, as support for Tor V2 addresses was removed from Bitcoin Core in 22.0. (#22544)

Wallet

GUI changes

Low-level changes

RPC

getblockchaininfo now returns a new time field, that provides the chain tip time. (#22407)

Tests

For the regtest network the activation heights of several softforks were changed.
- BIP 34 (blockheight in coinbase) from 500 to 2 (#16333)
- BIP 66 (DERSIG) from 1251 to 102 (#22632)
- BIP 65 (CLTV) from 1351 to 111 (#21862)
