Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#25727: util, config: error on startup if conf or reindex are set in config file
deba6fe315 test: update feature_config_args.py (josibake)
2e3826cbcd util: warn if reindex is used in conf (josibake)
5e744f4238 util: disallow setting conf in bitcoin.conf (josibake)

Pull request description:

  In help from `bitcoind -h` it specifes that `conf` can only be used from the commandline. However, if `conf` is set in a `bitcoin.conf` file, there is no error and from reading the logs it seems as if the `conf=<other file>` is being used, despite it being ignored. To recreate, you can setup a `bitcoin.conf` file in the default directory, add `conf=<some other file>.conf` and in the separate config file set whichever config value you want and verify that it is being ignored. alternatively, if you set `includeconf=<some other file>.conf` , your config in `<some other file>` will be picked up.

  This PR fixes this by having the node error when reading the config file if `conf=` is set.

  Additionally, it was mentioned in a recent [PR review club](https://bitcoincore.reviews/24858) that if `reindex=1` is set in the config file, the node will reindex on every startup, which is undesirable:
   ```irc
  17:14 <larryruane> michaelfolkson: Reindex is requested by the user (node operator) as a configuration option (command line or in the config file, tho you probably would never put it in the file, or else it would reindex on every startup!)
  ```

  This PR also has a commit to warn if `reindex=1` is set in the config file.

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.
