Merge #14941: rpc: Make unloadwallet wait for complete wallet unload 
645e905c32 doc: Add release notes for unloadwallet change to synchronous call (João Barbosa)
c37851de57 rpc: Make unloadwallet wait for complete wallet unload (João Barbosa)

Pull request description:

  Currently the `unloadwallet` RPC is asynchronous, it only signals the intent to unload the wallet and then returns the response to the client. The actual unload can happen later and the client has no way to be notified of that.

  This PR makes the `unloadwallet` RPC synchronous, meaning that it blocks until the wallet is fully unloaded.

  Replaces #14919, fixes #14917.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
