Merge #19646: doc: Updated outdated help command for getblocktemplate

c91b241b48 Updated outdated help command for getblocktemplate (fixes #19625) (Jake Leventhal)

Pull request description:

  **Summary of Changes**
  * Removed coinbasetxn from the help outputs
  * Added the missing name for transactions in the help outputs
  * Added help outputs for longpollid and default_witness_commitment
  * Added more clarity to capabilities, rules, and coinbaseaux

  **Rationale**
  The outputs from the help command for `getblocktemplate` are outdated and don't reflect the actual results from `getblocktemplate` (see #19625 for more details)

  Fixes #19625.
