17648493df doc: Speed up functional test runs using ramdisk (willcl-ark)
Pull request description:
Using a ramdisk for the functional tests can give noticable speedups for developers and reviewers.
Local testing with an 8GB ramdisk saw a full test run using `test/functional/test_runner.py --jobs=100 --cachedir=/mnt/tmp/cache --tmpdir=/mnt/tmp` reduced from ~280 seconds to ~99 seconds.
Possible bikeshedding opportunity to be had over whether this might best fit into `doc/productivity.md`, but IMO more people will likely see it (and it will therefore be more useful) if it is here.
It seems best to select `tmpfs` over `ramfs` as `ramfs` can grow dynamically (good) but cannot be limited in size and might cause the system to hang if you run out of ram (bad), whereas `tmpfs` is size-limited and will overflow into swap.

Pull request description:
Add sendall RPC née sweep
_Motivation_
Currently, the wallet uses a fSubtractFeeAmount (SFFO) flag on the
recipients objects for all forms of sending calls. According to the
commit discussion, this flag was chiefly introduced to permit sweeping
without manually calculating the fees of transactions. However, the flag
leads to unintuitive behavior and makes it more complicated to test
many wallet RPCs exhaustively. We proposed to introduce a dedicated
`sendall` RPC with the intention to cover this functionality.
Since the proposal, it was discovered in further discussion that our
proposed `sendall` rpc and SFFO have subtly different scopes of
operation.
• sendall:
Use _given UTXOs_ to pay a destination the remainder after fees.
• SFFO:
Use a _given budget_ to pay an address the remainder after fees.
While `sendall` will simplify cases of spending a given set of
UTXOs such as paying the value from one or more specific UTXOs, emptying
a wallet, or burning dust, we realized that there are some cases in
which SFFO is used to pay other parties from a limited budget,
which can often lead to the creation of change outputs. This cannot be
easily replicated using `sendall` as it would require manual
computation of the appropriate change amount.
As such, sendall cannot replace all uses of SFFO, but it still has a
different use case and will aid in simplifying some wallet calls and
numerous wallet tests.
_Sendall call details_
The proposed sendall call builds a transaction from a specific
subset of the wallet's UTXO pool (by default all of them) and assigns
the funds to one or more receivers. Receivers can either be specified
with a given amount or receive an equal share of the remaining
unassigned funds. At least one recipient must be provided without
assigned amount to collect the remainder. The `sendall` call will
never create change. The call has a `send_max` option that changes the
default behavior of spending all UTXOs ("no UTXO left behind"), to
maximizing the output amount of the transaction by skipping uneconomic
UTXOs. The `send_max` option is incompatible with providing a specific
set of inputs.

Edit: Replaced OP with latest commit message to reflect my updated motivation of the proposal.

Closes#24458 - the wallet always chooses 1 million sats as its change target, making it easier to fingerprint transactions created by the Core wallet. Instead of using a fixed value, choose one randomly each time (within a range). Using 50ksat (around $20) as the lower bound and `min(1 million sat, 2 * average payment value)` as the upper bound.
RFC: If the payment is <25ksat, this doesn't work, so we're using the range (payment amount, 50ksat) instead.

da2bc865d6 [wallet] don't create long chains by default (glozow)
Pull request description:
Default mempool policy doesn't let you have chains longer than 25 transactions. This is locally configurable of course, but it's not really safe to assume that a chain longer than 25 transactions will propagate. Thus, the wallet should probably avoid creating such transactions by default; set `DEFAULT_WALLET_REJECT_LONG_CHAINS` to true.

cccc1e70b8 Enforce Taproot script flags whenever WITNESS is set (MarcoFalke)
fa42299411 Remove nullptr check in GetBlockScriptFlags (MarcoFalke)
faadc606c7 refactor: Pass const reference instead of pointer to GetBlockScriptFlags (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Now that Taproot is active, it makes sense to enforce its rules on all blocks, even historic ones, regardless of the deployment status.
### Benefits:
(With "script flags" I mean "taproot script verification flags".)
* Script flags are known ahead for all blocks (even blocks not yet created) and do not change. This may benefit static analysis, code review, and development of new script features that build on Taproot.
* Any future bugs introduced in the deployment code won't have any effect on the script flags, as they are independent of deployment.
* Enforcing the taproot rules regardless of the deployment status makes testing easier because invalid blocks after activation are also invalid before activation. So there is no need to differentiate the two cases.
* It gives belt-and-suspenders protection against a practically expensive and theoretically impossible IBD reorg attack where the node is eclipsed. While `nMinimumChainWork` already protects against this, the cost for a few months worth of POW might be lowered until a major version release of Bitcoin Core reaches EOL. The needed work for the attack is the difference between `nMinimumChainWork` and the work at block 709632.
For reference, previously the same was done for P2SH and WITNESS in commit 0a8b7b4b33.
### Implementation:
I found one block which fails verification with the flags applied, so I added a `TaprootException`, similar to the `BIP16Exception`.
For reference, the debug log:
```

```
Hint for testing, make sure to set `-noassumevalid`.
### Considerations
Obviously this change can lead to consensus splits on the network in light of massive reorgs. Currently the last block before Taproot activation, that is the last block without the Taproot script flags set, is only buried by a few days of POW. However, when and if this patch is included in the next major release, it will be buried by a few months of POW. BIP90 considerations apply when looking at reorgs this large.

b2813980b8 init: disallow reindex-chainstate when pruning (Martin Zumsande)
Pull request description:
The combination of `-reindex-chainstate` and `-prune` currently makes the node stuck in an endless loop:
- `LoadChainstate()` will wipe the existing chainstate (so we have no genesis block anymore). It won't clean up unusable block files by calling `CleanupBlockRevFiles()` as for full `-reindex`.
- `ThreadImport()` has [logic](91d12344b1/src/node/blockstorage.cpp (L855)) of reloading Genesis after reindexing. This is what makes full `-reindex` work with `-prune` but it's not executed for `-reindex-chainstate`.
- Since we still don't have a genesis block, init will wait for it forever in an endless loop ([code](91d12344b1/src/init.cpp (L1630-L1640))).
Fix this by disallowing `-reindex-chainstate` together with `-prune`. This is discouraged in the help for `-reindex-chainstate` anyway ("When in pruning mode or if blocks on disk might be corrupted, use full -reindex instead.") but wasn't enforced.

40e871d9b4 [miner] always assume we can create witness blocks (glozow)
Pull request description:
Given the low possibility of a reorg reverting the segwit soft fork, there is no longer a need to check whether segwit is active to see if it's okay to add to the block template (see also #23512, #21009, etc). `TestBlockValidity()` is also run on the block template at the end of `CreateNewBlock()`, so any invalid block would be caught there.

utACK 40e871d9b4, although I disagree about changing the test for segwit transaction in mempool before activagtion, instead of just removing it: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/24421#discussion_r822933721.
