Deprecate estimatefee in v0.16, for final removal in v0.17.
This commit introduces a phased removal of RPC methods. RPC method is
disabled by default in version x, but can be enabled by using the
`-deprecatedrpc=<method>` argument. RPC method is removed entirely in
version (x+1).
Prevent arbitrary files from being overwritten. There have been reports
that users have overwritten wallet files this way. It may also avoid
other security issues.
Fixes#9934. Adds mention to release notes and adds a test.

Because the poll/select loop may pause for 100msec before actually doing a send, and we have no way to force the loop awake, try sending from the calling thread if the queue is empty.
Also, disable nagle as all sends should be either full messages or unfinished sends.

Pull request description:
As discussed briefly here: https://botbot.me/freenode/bitcoin-core-dev/2017-02-28/?msg=81712308&page=4
This adds a hidden command line option for setting `nMinimumChainWork`, which allows us to test this parameter in our functional tests, as well as allowing for niche use cases like syncing nodes that are otherwise disconnected from the network.
See also #10345, which proposes a new use of `nMinimumChainWork`.

Nodes don't consider themselves out of "initial block download" until
their active chain has more work than nMinimumChainWork.
While in initial block download, nodes won't relay blocks to their
peers, so test that this parameter functions as intended by verifying
that block relay only succeeds past a given node once its
nMinimumChainWork has been exceeded.

Pull request description:
Some additional tidyups after the introduction of TestNode:
- commit 1 makes TestNode use the correct rpc timeout. This should have been included in #11077
- commit 2 separates `add_node()` from `start_node()` as originally discussed here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10556#discussion_r121161453 with @kallewoof . The test writer no longer needs to assign to `self.nodes` when starting/stopping nodes.
- commit 3 adds a `set_test_params()` method, so individual tests don't need to override `__init__()` and call `super().__init__()`
Tree-SHA512: 0adb030623b96675b5c29e2890ce99ccd837ed05f721d0c91b35378c5ac01b6658174aac12f1f77402e1d38b61f39b3c43b4df85c96952565dde1cda05b0db84
Almost all test scripts currently need to override the __init__()
method. When they do that they need to call into super().__init__() as
the base class does some generic initialization.
This commit makes the base class __init__() call into set_test_params()
method. Individual test cases can override set_test_params() to setup
their test parameters.
Separates the act of creating a TestNode object from starting the node.
The test_framework now keeps track of its list of TestNodes, and test
writers can call start_node() and stop_node() without having to update
the self.nodes list.

c6ec4358a [tests] Add bitcoin_cli.py test script (John Newbery)
b23549f6e [tests] add TestNodeCLI class for calling bitcoin-cli for a node (John Newbery)
Pull request description:
We don't test bitcoin-cli at all. That means that we can miss inconsistencies between the bitcoin-cli client and the RPC interface, such as #10698 and #10747. It also means that the various bitcoin-cli options and features are untested and regressions could be silently introduced.
Let's fix that.
This PR adds bitcoin-cli testing in the python functional test_framework:
1. Add a bitcoin_cli.py test script that tests bitcoin-cli. At the moment it only tests that the result of `getinfo` is the same if you run it as an RPC or through bitcoin-cli, but can easily be extended to test additional bitcoin-cli features
**EDIT: `--usecli` option is moved to a separate PR. This PR now only covers the bitcoin_cli.py test.**
2. ~Add a `--usecli` option to the test framework. This changes the test to use bitcoin-cli for all RPC calls instead of using direct HTTP requests. This is somewhat experimental. It works for most tests, but there are some cases where it can't work transparently because:~
- ~the testcase is asserting on a specific error code, and bitcoin-cli returns a different error code from the direct RPC~
- ~we're sending a very large RPC request (eg `submitblock`) and it can't be serialized into a shell bitcoin-cli call.~
~I think that even though `--usecli` doesn't work on all tests, it's still a useful experimental feature. Future potential enhancements:~
- ~enhance the framework to automatically skip tests that are known to fail with bitcoin-cli if the `--usecli` option is used.~
- ~run a subset of tests in Travis with `-usecli`~
This builds on and requires the `TestNode` PR #10711 . As an aside, this is a good demonstration of how tidy it is to add additional features/interfaces now that test node logic/state is encapsulated in a TestNode class.

Fixes a couple of bugs from the introduction of TestNode:
- test scripts were no longer able to specify a custom timeout for
starting a node. Therefore tests with nodes that take a long time to
start up (eg pruning.py) would fail.
- the test for whether a node has failed on start up was broken
by changing 'assert x is None' to 'assert not x'. Since
subprocess.poll() can return None (indicating the node is still running)
or 0 (indicating the node exited with return code 0), this was a
regression.
When running the tests locally with a parallelism of 4 on an otherwise
busy system, RPC can take quite a wait to come up.
Change the timeout to 60 seconds just to be safe.
e53615b Remove vchDefaultKey and have better first run detection (Andrew Chow)
Pull request description:
Removes vchDefaultKey which was only used for first run detection. Improves wallet first run detection by checking to see if any keys were read from the database.
This also fixes a (rather contrived) case where an encrypted non-HD wallet has corruption such that the default key is no longer valid and is loaded into a Core version that supports HD wallets. This causes a runtime exception since a new hd master key is generated as the software believes the wallet file is newly created but cannot add the generated key to the wallet since it is encrypted. I was only able to replicate this error by creating a non-hd wallet, encrypting it, then editing the wallet using `db_dump` and `db_load` before loading the wallet with hd enabled. This problem has been reported by [two](https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1993244.0) [users](https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1746976.msg17511261#msg17511261) so it is something that can happen, although that raises the question of "what corrupted the default key".

d64ac3f [tests] Allow tests to pass when stderr is non-empty (Jonas Schnelli)
Pull request description:
Resurrect #10241 with nits addressed
Not sure how much people want this. Would be useful for functional tests which cause bitcoind to print to stderr.

876e92b Testing: listsinceblock should display all transactions that were affected since the given block, including transactions that were removed due to a reorg. (Karl-Johan Alm)
f999c46 listsinceblock: optionally find and list any transactions that were undone due to reorg when requesting a non-main chain block in a new 'removed' array. (Karl-Johan Alm)
Pull request description:
The following scenario will not notify the caller of the fact `tx0` has been dropped:
1. User 1 receives BTC in tx0 from utxo1 in block aa1.
2. User 2 receives BTC in tx1 from utxo1 (same) in block bb1
3. User 1 sees 2 confirmations at block aa3.
4. Reorg into bb chain.
5. User 1 asks `listsinceblock aa3` and does not see that tx0 is now invalidated.
See `listsinceblock.py` commit for related test.
The proposed fix is to iterate from the given block down to the fork point, and to check each transaction in the blocks against the wallet, in addition to including all transactions from the fork point to the active chain tip (the current behavior). Any transactions that were present will now also be listed in the `listsinceblock` output in a new `replaced` array. This operation may be a bit heavy but the circumstances (and perceived frequency of occurrence) warrant it, I believe.
Example output:
```Python

'transactions': [],
'replaced': [

'walletconflicts': [],

I believe this addresses the comment by @luke-jr in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/9516#issuecomment-274190081 but I could be wrong..

6b4f231 Move transaction combining from signrawtransaction to new RPC (Andrew Chow)
Pull request description:
Create a combinerawtransaction RPC which accepts a json array of hex raw transactions to combine them into one transaction. Signrawtransaction is changed to no longer combine transactions and only accept one transaction at a time.
The tests have been updated to test this. Tests for the signrawtransaction merge have also been removed.
This is part of #10570

cf82a9e Do not allow users to get keys from keypool without reserving them (Matt Corallo)
Pull request description:
fundrawtransaction allows users to add a change output and then
not have it removed from keypool. While it would be nice to have
users follow the normal CreateTransaction/CommitTransaction process
we use internally, there isnt much benefit in exposing this option,
especially with HD wallets, while there is ample room for users to
misunderstand or misuse this option.
This partially reverts #9377. Would be nice to get this for 15 since its kinda crazy we have this option to begin with IMO, will need release notes as an RPC option is now ignored.

This could be particularly nasty in some use-cases (especially
pre-HD-split) - eg a user might fundrawtransaction, then call
getnewaddress, hand out the address for someone to pay them, then
sendrawtransaction. This may result in the user thinking they have
received payment, even though it was really just their own change!
This could obviously result in needless key-reuse.
