Add util::Result support for returning warning messages and multiple errors,
not just a single error string. This provides a way for functions to report
errors and warnings in a standard way, and simplifies interfaces.
The functionality is unit tested here, and put to use in followup PR
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/25722
Add util::Result Update method to make it possible to change the value of an
existing Result object. This will be useful for functions that can return
multiple error and warning messages, and want to be able to change the result
value while keeping existing messages.
Add util::Result support for returning more error information. For better error
handling, adds the ability to return a value on failure, not just a value on
success. This is a key missing feature that made the result class not useful
for functions like LoadChainstate() which produce different errors that need to
be handled differently.
This change also makes some more minor improvements:
- Smaller type size. util::Result<int> is 16 bytes, and util::Result<void> is 8
bytes. Previously util::Result<int> and util::Result<void> were 72 bytes.
- More documentation and tests.
c94195c077 doc: add note to windows build about stripping bin (fanquake)
Pull request description:
The Windows binaries are particularly big when they contain debug info, closing in on 500mb. Add a note to the Windows build instructions about using `--strip`.
I haven't tested this (the copying out to WSL). If we don't want to add this note, in favour of [user-presents or similar](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/30593#issuecomment-2271304490), then we should just close#30593.
Fixes#30593.

We shouldn't have | at the end of the last clause, as this will make it match
the empty string too (so effectively everything starting with Satoshi: matches).
While doing this, put the | at the beginning of every line of regex rather than
the end, to make it easier to update in the future without accidentally running
into this problem again.

Pull request description:
I have updated signapple to notarize MacOS app bundles without adding any additional dependencies. Further, it can also sign and apply detached signatures to standalone binaries.
As such, we can use signapple to perform the notarization and stapling steps so that MacOS will run the app bundle after it is installed. `detached-sig-create.sh` is updated to have a notarization step and to download the ticket which will be included in the detached signatures. The workflow is largely unchanged for the MacOS codesigners except for the additional requirement of having an App Store Connect API key and Team UUID, instructions for which can be found at https://github.com/achow101/signapple/blob/master/docs/notarization.md. For guix builders, the workflow is unchanged.
Additionally, the standalone binaries packaged in the MacOS `.tar.gz` and Windows `.zip` will now be codesigned. `detached-sig-create.sh` was updated to handle these, so the workflow for both MacOS and Windows codesigners remains unchanged. For guix builders, the workflow is also unchanged.
Because those binaries will how have codesigned and unsigned versions, the build command is modified to output `-unsigned.{tar.gz,zip}` archives containing the binaries. Since this happens to conflict with the tarball used for codesigning, the codesigning tarball was renamed to `-codesigning.tar.gz`. Both MacOS and Windows codesigners will need to adjust their workflows to account for the new name.
