Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#27896: Remove the syscall sandbox
32e2ffc39374f61bb2435da507f285459985df9e Remove the syscall sandbox (fanquake)

Pull request description:

  After initially being merged in #20487, it's no-longer clear that an internal syscall sandboxing mechanism is something that Bitcoin Core should have/maintain, especially when compared to better maintained/supported alterantives, i.e [firejail](https://github.com/netblue30/firejail).

  There is more related discussion in #24771.

  Note that given where it's used, the sandbox also gets dragged into the kernel.

  If it's removed, this should not require any sort of deprecation, as this was only ever an opt-in, experimental feature.

  Closes #24771.

src/node/

The src/node/ directory contains code that needs to access node state (state in CChain, CBlockIndex, CCoinsView, CTxMemPool, and similar classes).

Code in src/node/ is meant to be segregated from code in src/wallet/ and src/qt/, to ensure wallet and GUI code changes don't interfere with node operation, to allow wallet and GUI code to run in separate processes, and to perhaps eventually allow wallet and GUI code to be maintained in separate source repositories.

As a rule of thumb, code in one of the src/node/, src/wallet/, or src/qt/ directories should avoid calling code in the other directories directly, and only invoke it indirectly through the more limited src/interfaces/ classes.

This directory is at the moment sparsely populated. Eventually more substantial files like src/validation.cpp and src/txmempool.cpp might be moved there.
