Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#33819: mining: getCoinbase() returns struct instead of raw tx
48f57bb35bbdbce509b8ef195de69e2a61a2511e mining: add new getCoinbaseTx() returning a struct (Sjors Provoost)
d59b4cdb5772917ee13e48552d51662160104b62 mining: rename getCoinbaseTx() to ..RawTx() (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  The first commit renames `getCoinbaseTx()` to `getCoinbaseRawTx()` to reflect that it returns a serialised transaction. This does not impact IPC clients, because they do not use the function name.

  The second commit then introduces a replacement `getCoinbase()` that provides a struct with everything clients need to construct a coinbase. This avoids clients having to parse and manipulate our dummy transaction.

  Deprecate but don't remove `getCoinbaseRawTx()`, `getCoinbaseCommitment()` and `getWitnessCommitmentIndex()`.

  After this change we can drop these deprecated methods, which in turn would allow us to clear the dummy transaction from the `getBlock()` result. But that is left for a followup to keep this PR focussed. See https://github.com/Sjors/bitcoin/pull/106 for an approach.

  Expand the `interface_ipc.py` functional test to document its usage.
