the run_command test under system_tests fails if the locale is anything
other than English ones because results such as "No such file or directory"
will be different under Non-English locales.
On the old version, a `ls nonexistingfile` was used to generate the error
output which is not ideal. In the current version we are using a Python one-liner
to generate a non 0 zero return value and "err" on stderr and check the
expected value against this.

7a2068a0ff seeds: Pull nodes from virtu's crawler (virtu)
Pull request description:
This builds on #30008 and adds data [exported](https://github.com/virtu/seed-exporter) by [my crawler](https://github.com/virtu/p2p-crawler) an additional source for seed nodes. Data covers all supported network types.
[edit: Added Luke's seeder as input as well.]
### Motivation
- Further decentralizes the seed node selection process (in the long term potentially enabling an _n_-source threshold for nodes to prevent a single source from entering malicious nodes)
- No longer need to manually curate seed node list for any network type: See last paragraph of OP in #30008. My crawler has been [discovering the handful of available cjdns nodes](https://21.ninja/reachable-nodes/nodes-by-net-type/) for around two months, all but one of which meet the reliability criteria.
- Alignment of uptime requirements for Onion and I2P nodes with those of clearnet nodes to 50%: If I'm reading the code correctly, seeders appear to optimize for up-to-dateness by using [lower connection timeouts](3c1a63c672/src/crawl.rs (L349)) than [Bitcoin Core](bc87ad9854/src/netbase.cpp (L40C27-L40C48)) to maximize throughput. Since my crawler does not have the same timeliness requirements, it opts for accuracy by using generous timeouts. As a result, its data contains additional eligible Onion (and other darknet nodes), as is shown in the histogram below. Around 4500 Onion nodes are discovered so far (blue); my data adds ~6400 more (orange); ~ 1500 nodes take longer than the default 20-second Bitcoin Core timeout and won't qualify as "good".

Here's the current results with 512 nodes for all networks except cjdns:

1b41d45d46 wallet: bugfix: ensure atomicity in settings updates (ismaelsadeeq)
Pull request description:
This PR fixes#30620.
As outlined in the issue, creating two wallets with `load_on_startup=true` simultaneously results in only one wallet being added to the startup file.
The current issue arises because the wallet settings update process involves:
1. Obtaining the settings value while acquiring the settings lock.
2. Modifying the settings value.
3. Overwriting the settings value while acquiring the settings lock again.
This sequence is not thread-safe. Different threads could modify the same base value simultaneously, overwriting data from other workers without realizing it.
The PR attempts to fix this by modifying the chain interface's `updateRwSetting` method to accept a function that will be called with the settings reference. This function will either update or delete the setting and return an enum indicating whether the settings need to be overwritten in this or not.
Additionally, this PR introduces two new methods to the chain interface:
- `overwriteRwSetting`: This method replaces the setting with a new value.
Used in `VerifyWallets`
- `deleteRwSettings`: This method completely erases a specified setting.
This method is currently used only in `overwriteRwSetting`.
These changes ensure that updates are race-free across all clients.

Pull request description:
The [DNS seeder](https://github.com/achow101/dnsseedrs) that I wrote collects statistics on node reliability in the same way that sipa's seeder does, and also outputs this information in the same file format. Thus it can also be used in our fixed seeds update scripts. My seeder additionally crawls onion v3, i2p, and cjdns, so will now be able to set those fixed seeds automatically rather than curating manual lists.
In doing this update, I've found that `makeseeds.py` is missing newer versions from the regex as well as cjdns support; both of these have been updated.
I also noticed that the testnet fixed seeds are all manually curated and sipa's seeder does not appear to publish any testnet data. Since I am also running the seeder for testnet, I've added the commands to generate testnet fixed seeds from my seeder's data too.
Lastly, I've updated all of the fixed seeds. However, since my seeder has not found any cjdns nodes that met the reliability criteria (possibly due to connectivity issues present in those networks), I've left the previous manual seeds for that network.

- Settings updates were not thread-safe, as they were executed in
three separate steps:
1) Obtain settings value while acquiring the settings lock.
2) Modify settings value.
3) Overwrite settings value while acquiring the settings lock.
This approach allowed concurrent threads to modify the same base value
simultaneously, leading to data loss. When this occurred, the final
settings state would only reflect the changes from the last thread
that completed the operation, overwriting updates from other threads.
Fix this by making the settings update operation atomic.
- Add test coverage for this behavior.

60055f1abc test: replace deprecated secp256k1 context flags usage (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
The flags `SECP256K1_CONTEXT_{SIGN,VERIFY}` have been marked as deprecated since libsecp256k1 version 0.2 (released in December 2022), with the recommendation to use SECP256K1_CONTEXT_NONE instead, see https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/1126 and 1988855079/CHANGELOG.md (L132). Note that in contrast to other deprecated functions/variables, these defines don't have a deprecated attribute and hence don't lead to a compiler warning (see https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/1126#discussion_r922105271), so they are not easily detected.

Pull request description:
Because #30647 reduced the timewarp attack threshold from 7200s to 600s, our miner code will fail to propose a block template (on testnet4) if the last block of the previous period has a timestamp two hours in the future. This PR fixes that and also adds a test.
The non-test changes in the last commit should be in v28, otherwise miners have to patch it themselves. If necessary I can split that out into a separate PR, but I prefer to get the tests in as well.
In order to add the test, we activate BIP94 on regtest.
In order for the test to run faster, we reduce its difficulty retarget period to 144, the same number that's already used for softfork activation logic. Regtest does not actually adjust its difficulty, so this change has no effect (except for `getnetworkhashps`, see commit).
An alternative approach would be to run this test on testnet4, by hardcoding its first 2015 in the test suite. But since the timewarp mitigation is a serious candidate for a future mainnet softfork, it seems better to just deploy it on regtest.
The next commits add a test and fix the miner code.
The `MAX_TIMEWARP` constant is moved to `consensus.h` so both validation and miner code have access to it.

16e95bda86 Move maximum timewarp attack threshold back to 600s from 7200s (Matt Corallo)
Pull request description:
In 6bfa26048d the testnet4 timewarp attack fix block time variation was increased from the Great Consensus Cleanup value of 600s to 7200s on the thesis that this allows miners to always create blocks with the current time. Sadly, doing so does allow for some nonzero inflation, even if not a huge amount.
While it could be that some hardware ignores the timestamp provided to it over Stratum and forces the block header timestamp to the current time, I'm not aware of any such hardware, and it would also likely suffer from random invalid blocks due to relying on NTP anyway, making its existence highly unlikely.
This leaves the only concern being pools, but most of those rely on work generated by Bitcoin Core (in one way or another, though when spy mining possibly not), and it seems likely that they will also not suffer any lost work. While its possible that a pool does generate invalid work due to spy mining or otherwise custom logic, it seems unlikely that a substantial portion of hashrate would do so, making the difference somewhat academic (any pool that screws this up will only do so once and the network would come out just fine).
Further, while we may end up deciding these assumptions were invalid and we should instead use 7200s, it seems prudent to try with the value we "want" on testnet4, giving us the ability to learn if the compatibility concerns are an issue before we go to mainnet.

6ed424f2db wallet: fix, detect blank legacy wallets in IsLegacy (furszy)
Pull request description:
Blank legacy wallets do not have active SPKM. They can only be

This enables the migration of blank legacy wallets in the GUI.
To test this:
1) Create a blank legacy wallet.
2) Try to migrate it using the GUI's toolbar "Migrate Wallet" button.
-> In master: The button will be disabled because `CWallet::IsLegacy()` returns false for blank legacy wallet.
-> In this PR: the button will be enabled, allowing the migration of legacy wallets.

9b29755520 Deduplicate list of chain strings in RPC help texts (Martin Saposnic)
Pull request description:
As mentioned in issue https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/30645:
Many command line parameter and RPC help texts currently contain the list of chain/network names hardcoded ("main, test, testnet4, signet, regtest"), which is error-prone as it can easily happen to miss an instance if the list ever changes again.
This PR deduplicates the list of possible chain/network strings in RPC/parameter help texts, and it creates a macro `LIST_CHAIN_NAMES` in src/chainparamsbase.h. In the future, there is only 1 place where that list of possible values lives, so maintainability is improved and errors are avoided.
All three places where this change impacts:
```
./bitcoin-cli --help
./bitcoin-cli help getblockchaininfo
./bitcoin-cli help getmininginfo
```
They all return the correct string `"main, test, testnet4, signet, regtest"`

Pull request description:
Currently the Migrate Wallet menu item can only be used to migrate the currently loaded wallet. This is not suitable for the future when legacy wallets can no longer be loaded at all, but should still be able to be migrated. This PR changes that menu item into a menu list like Open Wallet and lets users migrate any legacy wallet in their wallet directory regardless of the wallets loaded.
One issue I ran into was dealing with encrypted wallets. Ideally, we would detect whether a wallet is encrypted, and prompt the user for their passphrase at that time. However, that's actually difficult to do in the GUI since migration will unload the wallet if it was already loaded, and reload it without connecting it to any signals or interfaces. Only then can it detect whether a wallet is encrypted, but then there is no `WalletModel` or even an `interfaces::Wallet` that the GUI could use to unlock it via a callback.
To deal with this, I've opted to just add a button to the migration dialog box that has the user enter their passphrase first, along with instructional text to use that button if their wallet was encrypted. If the user enters the wrong passphrase or clicked the other button that does not prompt for the passphrase, migration will fail with a message indicating that the passphrase was incorrect.

Once legacy wallets can no longer be loaded, we need to be able to
migrate them without loading. Thus we should use a menu that lists the
wallets in the wallet directory instead of an action which migrates the
currently loaded wallet.
In 6bfa26048d the testnet4 timewarp
attack fix block time variation was increased from the Great
Consensus Cleanup value of 600s to 7200s on the thesis that this
allows miners to always create blocks with the current time. Sadly,
doing so does allow for some nonzero inflation, even if not a huge

While it could be that some hardware ignores the timestamp provided
to it over Stratum and forces the block header timestamp to the
current time, I'm not aware of any such hardware, and it would also
likely suffer from random invalid blocks due to relying on NTP
anyway, making its existence highly unlikely.
This leaves the only concern being pools, but most of those rely on
work generated by Bitcoin Core (in one way or another, though when
spy mining possibly not), and it seems likely that they will also
not suffer any lost work. While its possible that a pool does

it seems unlikely that a substantial portion of hashrate would do
so, making the difference somewhat academic (any pool that screws
this up will only do so once and the network would come out just
fine).
Further, while we may end up deciding these assumptions were
invalid and we should instead use 7200s, it seems prudent to try
with the value we "want" on testnet4, giving us the ability to
learn if the compatibility concerns are an issue before we go to
mainnet.
To prepare for migrating wallets that are not loaded, when migration
occurs in the GUI, it should not rely on a WalletModel existing.
