4dc1915 check for null values in rpc args and handle appropriately (Gregory Sanders)
999ef20 importmulti options are optional (Gregory Sanders)
a70d025 fixup some rpc param counting for rpc help (Gregory Sanders)
Pull request description:
Audited where named args will fail to use correct default values or may fail when additional optional arguments are added.
Previously for these parameters, it was fine to omit them as positional arguments, but it would trigger UniValue runtime errors to set them to null, or to omit them while passing named parameters with greater positions (which would internally set earlier missing arguments to null). Now null values are treated the same as missing values so these errors do not occur.
Included a few other small fixes while working on it.
I didn't bother fixing account-based rpc calls.

Change parameter for conservative estimates to be an estimate_mode string.
Change to never return a -1 for failure but to instead omit the feerate and
return an error string. Throw JSONRPC error on invalid nblocks parameter.
This check has been moved to the wallet logic GetMinimumFee. The rpc call to
estimatesmartfee will now no longer return a result maxed with the mempool min
fee, but automated fee calculations from the wallet will produce the same result
as before and coincontrol and sendcoins dialogs in the GUI will correctly
display the right prospective fee.
changes to policy/fees.cpp include a big whitespace indentation change.
Some people keep thinking that MAX_BLOCK_BASE_SIZE is a separate
size limit from the weight limit when it fact it is superfluous,
and used in early tests before the witness data has been
validated or just to compute worst case sizes. The size checks
that use it would not behave any differently consensus wise
if they were eliminated completely.
Its correct value is not independently settable but is a function
of the weight limit and weight formula.
This patch just eliminates it and uses the scale factor as
required to compute the worse case constants.
It also moves the weight factor out of primitives into consensus,
which is a more logical place for it.
This makes it possible to mine to any wallet when multi-wallet mode is added.
Solves the same problem as #10649, but IMO in a cleaner way.
It also gets rid of the circuitous `ScriptForMining` method on
`CValidationInterface`, which really doesn't belong there.
After this change it's still possible to mine without wallet through
`generatetoaddress`.

For the per confirmation number tracking of data, introduce a scale factor so that in the longer horizones confirmations are bucketed together at a resolution of the scale. (instead of 1008 individual data points for each fee bucket, have 42 data points each covering 24 different confirmation values.. (1-24), (25-48), etc.. )
Change the logic of estimateSmartFee to check a 60% threshold at half the target, a 85% threshold at the target and a 95% threshold at double the target. Always check the shortest time horizon possible and ensure that estimates are monotonically decreasing. Add a conservative mode, which makes sure that the 95% threshold is also met at longer time horizons as well.
Track information the ranges of fee rates that were used to calculate the fee estimates (the last range of fee rates in which the data points met the threshold and the first to fail) and provide an RPC call to return this information.

There is no point in even hashing a submitted block which doesn't have
a coinbase transaction.
This also results in more useful error reporting on corrupted input.
Thanks to rawodb for the bug report.
It has no business in `rpcserver.h`. Define it in the interface header
of the implementation unit `rpcblockchain` where it is defined.
Also modernize the signature to:
double GetDifficulty(const CBlockIndex* blockindex = nullptr);
(remove `extern`, replace `NULL` with `nullptr`)
Segwit's version bit will be signalled for all invocations of CreateNewBlock,
and not specifying segwit only will cause CreateNewBlock to skip transactions
with witness from being selected.
This a breaking API change to the prioritisetransaction RPC call which previously required exactly three arguments and now requires exactly two (hash and feeDelta). The function prioritiseTransaction is also updated.
