Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#28350: Log explicit error message when coindb is found in inconsistent state
df60de770d log: Print error message when coindb is in inconsistent state (Fabian Jahr)

Pull request description:

  While doing manual testing on assumeutxo this week I managed to put the coindb into an inconsistent state twice. For a normal user, this can also happen if their computer crashes during a flush or if they try to stop their node during a flush and then get tired of waiting and just shut their computer down or kill the process. It's an edge case but I wouldn't be surprised if this does happen more often when assumeutxo gets used more widely because there might be multiple flushes happening during loading of the UTXO set in the beginning and users may think something is going wrong because of the unexpected wait or they forgot some configs and want to start over quickly.

  The problem is, when this happens at first the node starts up normally until it's time to flush again and then it hits an assert that the user can not understand.

  ```
  2023-08-25T16:31:09Z [httpworker.0] [snapshot] 52000000 coins loaded (43.30%, 6768 MB)
  2023-08-25T16:31:16Z [httpworker.0] Cache size (7272532192) exceeds total space (7256510300)
  2023-08-25T16:31:16Z [httpworker.0] FlushSnapshotToDisk: flushing coins cache (7272 MB) started
  Assertion failed: (old_heads[0] == hashBlock), function BatchWrite, file txdb.cpp, line 126.
  Abort trap: 6
  ```

  We should at least log an error message that gives users a hint of what the problem is and what they can do to resolve it. I am keeping this separate from the assumeutxo project since this issue can also happen during any regular flush.

Bitcoin Core integration/staging tree

https://bitcoincore.org

For an immediately usable, binary version of the Bitcoin Core software, see https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/.

What is Bitcoin Core?

Bitcoin Core connects to the Bitcoin peer-to-peer network to download and fully validate blocks and transactions. It also includes a wallet and graphical user interface, which can be optionally built.

Further information about Bitcoin Core is available in the doc folder.

License

Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.

Development Process

The master branch is regularly built (see doc/build-*.md for instructions) and tested, but it is not guaranteed to be completely stable. Tags are created regularly from release branches to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin Core.

The https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui repository is used exclusively for the development of the GUI. Its master branch is identical in all monotree repositories. Release branches and tags do not exist, so please do not fork that repository unless it is for development reasons.

The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.

Testing

Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.

Automated Testing

Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run (assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.

There are also regression and integration tests, written in Python. These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py

The CI (Continuous Integration) systems make sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.

Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing

Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.

Translations

Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Bitcoin Core's Transifex page.

Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.

Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
