This commit only declares constants without using them. They will be applied in
seperate commit since changing struct default field values in cap'n proto is
not backwards compatible.
libmultiprocess currently handles uncaught exceptions from IPC methods badly
when an `mp.Context` parameter is passed and the IPC call executes on an a
worker thread, with the uncaught exception leading to a std::terminate call.
https://github.com/bitcoin-core/libmultiprocess/pull/218 was created to fix
this, but before that change is available, update an IPC test which can trigger
this behavior to handle it and recover when mp.Context parameters are added in
the an upcoming commit.
Having this workaround makes the test a little more complicated and less strict
but reduces dependencies between pending PRs so they don't need to be reviewed
or merged in a particular order.
Allow `expected_stderr` option passed to `wait_until_stopped` and
`is_node_stopped` helper functions to be a regex pattern instead of just a
fixed string.
Allow `expected_ret_code` be list of possible exit codes instead of a single
error code to handle the case where exit codes vary depending on OS and libc.

Pull request description:
Also enforce `MINIMUM_BLOCK_RESERVED_WEIGHT` for IPC clients.
The `-blockreservedweight` startup option should only affect RPC code, because IPC clients (currently) do not have a way to signal their intent to use the node default (the `BlockCreateOptions` struct defaults merely document a recommendation for client software).
Before this PR however, if the user set `-blockreservedweight` then `ApplyArgsManOptions` would cause the `block_reserved_weight` option passed by IPC clients to be ignored. _Users who don't set this value were not affected._
Fix this by making BlockCreateOptions::block_reserved_weight an std::optional.
Internal interface users, such as the RPC call sites, don't set a value so -blockreservedweight is used. Whereas IPC clients do set a value which is no longer ignored.
Test coverage is added, with a preliminary commit that refactors the `create_block_template` and `wait_next_template` helpers.
`mining_basic.py` already ensured `-blockreservedweight` is enforced by mining RPC methods. The second commit adds coverage for Mining interface IPC clients. It also verifies that `-blockreservedweight` has no effect on them.
The third commit enforces `MINIMUM_BLOCK_RESERVED_WEIGHT` for IPC clients. Previously lower values were quietly clamped.

Pull request description:
Currently, header-only dependencies in the depends subsystem are installed into the standard `include/` subdirectory. This inadvertently exposes their headers to the compiler via `-I` flags brought in by other dependencies (e.g., `libevent` or `sqlite`). This "include path pollution" masks missing dependencies in the build configuration. While the build might succeed by accident due to this overlap, it creates a fragile state. If the overlapping library is removed, the build will break, or, worse, the compiler may silently fall back to the host system's default paths (e.g., `/usr/include`).
This PR improves build system security and hygiene by enforcing strict, distinguished include paths for header-only dependencies. The missing dependencies revealed by this change (`Boost::headers`, `USDT::headers`) have been fixed in separate commits.

Pull request description:
Part of #30289.
TxGraph's fundamental responsibility is deciding the order of transactions in the mempool. It relies on the `cluster_linearize.h` code to optimize it, but there can and often will be many different orderings that are essentially equivalent from a quality perspective, so we have to pick one. At a high level, the solution will involve one or more of:
* Deciding based on **internal identifiers** (`Cluster::m_sequence`, `DepGraphIndex`). This is very simple, but risks leaking information about transaction receive order.
* Deciding **randomly**, which is private, but may interfere with relay expectations, block propagation, and ability to monitor network behavior.
* Deciding **based on txid**, which is private and deterministic, but risks incentivizing grinding to get an edge (though we haven't really seen such behavior).
* Deciding **based on size** (e.g. prefer smaller transactions), which is somewhat related to quality, but not unconditionally (depending on mempool layout, the ideal ordering might call for smaller transactions first, last, or anywhere in between). It's also not a strong ordering as there can be many identically-sized transactions. However, if it were to encourage grinding behavior, incentivizing smaller transactions is probably not a bad thing.
As of #32545, the current behavior is primarily picking randomly, though inconsistently, as some code paths also use internal identifiers and size. #33335 sought to change it to use random (preferring size in a few places), with the downsides listed above.
This PR is an alternative to that, which changes the order to tie-break based on size everywhere possible, and use lowest-txid-first as final fallback. This is fully deterministic: for any given set of mempool transactions, if all linearized optimally, the transaction order exposed by TxGraph is deterministic.
The transactions within a chunk are sorted according to:
1. `PostLinearize` (which improves sub-chunk order), using an initial linearization created using the rules 2-5 below.
2. Topology (parents before children).
3. Individual transaction feerate (high to low)
4. Individual transaction weight (small to large)
5. Txid (low to high txid)
The chunks within a cluster are sorted according to:
1. Topology (chunks after their dependencies)
2. Chunk feerate (high to low)
3. Chunk weight (small to large)
4. Max-txid (chunk with lowest maximum-txid first)
The chunks across clusters are sorted according to:
1. Feerate (high to low)
2. Equal-feerate-chunk-prefix weight (small to large)
3. Max-txid (chunk with lowest maximum-txid first)
The equal-feerate-chunk-prefix weight of a chunk C is defined as the sum of the weights of all chunks in the same cluster as C, with the same feerate as C, up to and including C itself, in linearization order (but excluding such chunks that appear after C). This is a well-defined approximation of sorting chunks from small to large across clusters, while remaining consistent with intra-cluster linearization order.

Pull request description:
This has been a recent discovery; the general thread pool class created for #26966, cleanly
integrates into the HTTP server. It simplifies init, shutdown and requests execution logic.
Replacing code that was never unit tested for code that is properly unit and fuzz tested.
Although our functional test framework extensively uses this RPC interface (that’s how
we’ve been ensuring its correct behavior so far - which is not the best).
This clearly separates the responsibilities:
The HTTP server now focuses solely on receiving and dispatching requests, while ThreadPool handles
concurrency, queuing, and execution.
This will also allows us to experiment with further performance improvements at the task queuing and
execution level, such as a lock-free structure or task prioritization or any other implementation detail
like coroutines in the future, without having to deal with HTTP code that lives on a different layer.
Note:
The rationale behind introducing the ThreadPool first is to be able to easily cherry-pick it across different
working paths. Some of the ones that are benefited from it are #26966 for the parallelization of the indexes
initial sync, #31132 for the parallelization of the inputs fetching procedure, #32061 for the libevent replacement,
the kernel API #30595 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30595#discussion_r2413702370) to avoid blocking validation among others use cases not publicly available.
Note 2:
I could have created a wrapper around the existing code and replaced the `WorkQueue` in a subsequent
commit, but it didn’t seem worth the extra commits and review effort. The `ThreadPool` implements
essentially the same functionality in a more modern and cleaner way.

```
send [{"address":amount,...},{"data":"hex"},...] ( conf_target "estimate_mode" fee_rate options version )

- Introduce a `FeeRateFormat` enum and change `CFeeRate::ToString()`
to use it for `BTC/kvB` vs `sat/vB` output formatting.
- Handle all enum values, hence remove default case in `CFeeRate::ToString()`
and `assert(False)` when a `FeeRateFormat` value is not handled.
- Keep `FeeEstimateMode` focused on fee estimation behavior by removing fee rate format
values from `FeeEstimateMode`.
- Update all formatting call sites and tests to pass `FeeRateFormat` explicitly, separating fee rate format
from fee-estimation mode selection.
The vcpkg tools cache was using the combined actions/cache action,
which saves on every run regardless of branch. Split it into the
restore/save pattern used by the other caches, so that saves only
happen on default branch pushes.

Pull request description:
Take advantage of the [new secp256k1 option to avoid visibility attributes](https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/1696) on API functions.
While most users of a shared libsecp always want API functions exported so that they can actually be linked against, we always build it statically. When that static lib is linked into a (static or shared) libbitcoinkernel, by default its symbols end up exported there as well.
As libsecp is an implementation detail of the kernel (and any future Core lib), its symbols should never be exported.
[This was the intended use for the above PR](https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/1696#issuecomment-3028838988), looks like we just forgot to follow-up and actually hook it up.
This is most easily tested by building with `-DBUILD_KERNEL_LIB=ON -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON` (with or without `-DREDUCE_EXPORTS=ON`) and inspecting via:
```bash
nm -CD lib/libbitcoinkernel.so | grep secp
```
Before this change, secp's symbols will show up there. After, they should be absent.
This should finally solve secp symbol visibility once and for all :)

Additionally, this PR moves the `CreatedTransactionResult` struct into its own file. This change is made to avoid further expanding the GUI dependencies on `wallet.h`. Structurally, the GUI should only access the model/interfaces and never the wallet directly.

This makes TxGraph also use the fallback order to decide the order of
chunks from distinct clusters.
The order of chunks across clusters becomes:
1. Feerate (high to low)
2. Equal-feerate-chunk-prefix (small to large)
3. Max-txid (chunk with lowest maximum-txid first)
This makes the full TxGraph ordering fully deterministic as long as all
clusters in it are optimally linearized.
Add glue to make TxGraph use the fallback order provided to it, in the
fallback comparator it provides to the cluster linearization code.

within a chunk, and the order of transactions within those chunks,
completely deterministic.
This adds an std::function<strong_ordering(Ref&,Ref&)> argument to the
MakeTxGraph function, which can be used by the caller (e.g., mempool
code) to provide a fallback order to TxGraph.
This is just preparation; TxGraph does not yet use this fallback order
for anything.
This is a small change to the txgraph fuzz test to make it used objects
derived from TxGraph::Ref (SimTxObject) rather than TxGraph::Ref
directly. This matches how the mempool uses CTxMemPoolEntry, which
derives from TxGraph::Ref.
This is preparation for a future commit which will introduce simulated
txids to the transactions in this fuzz test, to be used as fallback
order.
This allows passing in a fallback order comparator to Linearize(), which
is used as final tiebreak when deciding the order of chunks and
transactions within a chunk, rather than a random tiebreak.
The order of transactions within a chunk becomes:
1. Topology (parents before children)
2. Individual transaction feerate (high to low)
3. Weight (small to large)
4. Fallback (low to high fallback order)
The order of chunks within a cluster becomes:
1. Topology (chunks after their dependencies)
2. Feerate (high to low)
3. Weight (small to large)
4. Max-fallback (chunk with lowest maximum-fallback-tx first)
For now, txgraph passes a naive comparator to Linearize(), which makes
the cluster order deterministic when treating the input transactions as
identified by the DepGraphIndex. However, since DepGraphIndexes are the
result of possibly-randomized operations inside txgraph, this doesn't
actually make txgraph's per-cluster ordering deterministic. That will be
changed in a later commit, by using a txid-based fallback instead.
This makes TxGraph track the equal-feerate-prefix size of all chunks in
all clusters in the main graph, and uses it to sort chunks coming from
distinct clusters.
The order of chunks across clusters becomes:
1. Feerate (high to low)
2. Equal-feerate-prefix (small to large)
3. Cluster sequence number (old to new); this will be changed later.
The equal-feerate-prefix size of a chunk C is defined as the sum
of the weights of all chunks in the same cluster as C, with the same
feerate as C, up to and including C itself, in linearization order (but
excluding such chunks that appear after C).
This is an approximation of sorting chunks from small to large across
clusters, while remaining consistent with intra-cluster linearization
order.
This changes the order of transactions within a chunk to be:
1. Topology (parents before children)
2. Individual transaction feerate (high to low)
3. Individual transaction weight (small to large)
4. Random tiebreak (will be changed in a future commit)
To do so, use a heap of topology-ready transactions within
GetLinearization(), sorted by (2), (3), and (4).
This is analogous to the order of chunks within a cluster, which is
unchanged:
1. Topology (chunks after chunks they depend on)
2. Chunk feerate (high to low)
3. Chunk weight (small to large)
4. Random tiebreak (will be changed in a future commit)
Whenever a TxGraph::Ref is destroyed, if it by then still appears inside
main-level clusters, wipe the chunk index entries for those clusters, to
prevent having lingering indexes for transactions without Ref.
This is preparation for enabling a callback being passed to MakeTxGraph
to define a fallback order on objects. Once the Ref for a transaction is
gone, it is not possible to invoke the callback anymore. To prevent the
index becoming inconsistent, we need to immediately get rid of the index
entries when the Ref disappears.
This is not a problem, because such destructions necessarily will
trigger a relinearization of the cluster (assuming there are
transactions in it left) before becoming acceptable again, and the chunk
ordering is not observable (through CompareMainOrder, or through the
BlockBuilder interface) until that point. However, the index itself
needs to remain consistent in the mean time, even if not meaningful.
This makes TxGraphImpl::Compact() invoke Cluster::Updated() on all
affected clusters, in case they have internal GraphIndex values stored
that may have become outdated with the renumbering of GraphIndex values
that Compact() caused.
No such GraphIndex values are currently stored, but this will change in
a future commit.
