Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#23499: multiprocess: Add interfaces::Node::broadCastTransaction method
0e0f4fdd892223766db4a83194b6576847b757f7 multiprocess: Add interfaces::Node::broadCastTransaction method (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:

  This fixes a null pointer crash in the bitcoin-gui PSBT dialog. The bitcoin-gui interfaces::Node object has a null NodeContext pointer, and can't broadcast transactions directly. It needs to broadcast transactions through the bitcoin-node process instead.

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.
