Pull request description:
This PR makes a new RPC command called `getaddressinfo` which relies on the wallet. It contains all of `validateaddress`'s address info stuff. Those parts in `validateaddress` have been marked as deprecated. The tests have been updated to use `getaddressinfo` except the `disablewallet` test which is the only test that actually uses `validateaddress` to validate an address.

Moves the parts of validateaddress which require the wallet into getaddressinfo

require the wallet as deprecated.
Validateaddress will call getaddressinfo

Moves IsMine functions to libbitcoin_common and then links libbitcoin_wallet
before libbitcoin_common in order to prevent linker errors since IsMine is no
longer used in libbitcoin_server.

There were some RPC/RPC options deprecated in v0.16. Those can now be removed from master since v0.16 has been branched.
- `estimatefee` RPC has been removed. The `feature_fee_estimation.py` test has been updated to remove the RPC, but doesn't yet have good coverage of the replacement RPC `estimatesmartfee`. Improving the test coverage should be done in a new PR. (#11031)
- the `errors` field returned by `getmininginfo` has been deprecated and replaced by a `warning` field. (#10858)
- providing addresses as inputs to `createmultisig` has been deprecated. Users should use `addmultisigaddress` instead (#11415)
- The return format from `addmultisigaddress` has changed (#11415)
`getwitnessaddress` was also deprecated in v0.16 and can be removed, but many tests are using that RPC, so it's a larger job to remove. It should be removed in a separate PR (possibly after #11739 and #11398 have been merged and the segwit test code tidied up)

If `-changetype` is not explicitly set, then regardless of `-addresstype`, the wallet will use a ~`bech32` change address~ `P2WPKH` change output if any destination is `P2WPKH` or `P2WSH`.
This seems more intuitive to me and more in line with the spirit of [BIP-69](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0069.mediawiki).
When combined with #11991 a QT user could opt to use `bech32` exclusively without having to figure out how to launch with `-changetype=bech32`, although so would #11937.

1df206f Disallow using addresses in createmultisig (Andrew Chow)
Pull request description:
This PR should be the last part of #7965.
This PR makes createmultisig only accept public keys and marks the old functionality of accepting addresses as deprecated.
It also splits `_createmultisig_redeemscript` into two functions, `_createmultisig_getpubkeys` and `_createmultisig_getaddr_pubkeys`. `_createmultisig_getpubkeys` retrieves public keys from the RPC parameters and `_createmultisig_getaddr_pubkeys` retrieves addresses' public keys from the wallet. `_createmultisig_getaddr_pubkeys` requires the wallet and is only used by `addwitnessaddress` (except when `createmultisig` is used in deprecated mode).
`addwitnessaddress`'s API is also changed. Instead of returning just an address, it now returns the same thing as `createmultisig`: a JSON object with two fields, address and redeemscript.

ec527c6 Don't allow relative -walletdir paths (Russell Yanofsky)
Pull request description:
This makes it an error to explicitly specify a non-absolute -walletdir path, and also adds a debug.log warning if a relative rather than absolute -datadir path is configured.
Specifying paths relative to the current working directory in a daemon process can be dangerous, because files can fail to be located even if the configuration doesn't change, but the daemon is started up differently.
Specifying a relative -datadir now adds a warning to the debug log. It would not be backwards-compatible to forbid relative -datadir paths entirely, and it could also be inconvenient for command line testing.
Specifying a relative -walletdir now results in a startup error. But since the -walletdir option is new in 0.16.0, there should be no compatibility issues. Another reason not to use working directory paths for -walletdir specifically is that the default -walletdir is a "wallets" subdirectory inside the datadir, so it could be surprising that setting -walletdir manually would choose a directory rooted in a completely different location.

Pull request description:
This implements a minimum viable implementation of SegWit wallet support, based on top of #11389, and includes part of the functionality from #11089.
Two new configuration options are added:
* `-addresstype`, with options `legacy`, `p2sh`, and `bech32`. It controls what kind of addresses are produced by `getnewaddress`, `getaccountaddress`, and `createmultisigaddress`.
* `-changetype`, with the same options, and by default equal to `-addresstype`, that controls what kind of change is used.
All wallet private and public keys can be used for any type of address. Support for address types dependent on different derivation paths will need a major overhaul of how our internal detection of outputs work. I expect that that will happen for a next major version.
The above also applies to imported keys, as having a distinction there but not for normal operations is a disaster for testing, and probably for comprehension of users. This has some ugly effects, like needing to associate the provided label to `importprivkey` with each style address for the corresponding key.
To deal with witness outputs requiring a corresponding redeemscript in wallet, three approaches are used:
* All SegWit addresses created through `getnewaddress` or multisig RPCs explicitly get their redeemscripts added to the wallet file. This means that downgrading after creating a witness address will work, as long as the wallet file is up to date.
* All SegWit keys in the wallet get an _implicit_ redeemscript added, without it being written to the file. This means recovery of an old backup will work, as long as you use new software.
* All keypool keys that are seen used in transactions explicitly get their redeemscripts added to the wallet files. This means that downgrading after recovering from a backup that includes a witness address will work.
These approaches correspond to solutions 3a, 1a, and 5a respectively from https://gist.github.com/sipa/125cfa1615946d0c3f3eec2ad7f250a2. As argued there, there is no full solution for dealing with the case where you both downgrade and restore a backup, so that's also not implemented.
`dumpwallet`, `importwallet`, `importmulti`, `signmessage` and `verifymessage` don't work with SegWit addresses yet. They're remaining TODOs, for this PR or a follow-up. Because of that, several tests unexpectedly run with `-addresstype=legacy` for now.
Tree-SHA512: d425dbe517c0422061ab8dacdc3a6ae47da071450932ed992c79559d922dff7b2574a31a8c94feccd3761c1dffb6422c50055e6dca8e3cf94a169bc95e39e959
This introduces two command line flags (-addresstype and -changetype) which control
the type of addresses/outputs created by the GUI and RPCs. Certain RPCs allow
overriding these (`getnewaddress` and `getrawchangeaddress`). Supported types
are "legacy" (P2PKH and P2SH-multisig), "p2sh-segwit" (P2SH-P2WPKH and P2SH-P2WSH-multisig),
and "bech32" (P2WPKH and P2WSH-multisig).
A few utility functions are added to the wallet to construct different address type
and to add the necessary entries to the wallet file to be compatible with earlier
versions (see `CWallet::LearnRelatedScripts`, `GetDestinationForKey`,
`GetAllDestinationsForKey`, `CWallet::AddAndGetDestinationForScript`).
test_framework accepts a new --usecli parameter. Running the test with
this parameter will cause all RPCs to be sent through bitcoin-cli rather
than directly over http. By default, individual test cases do not
support --usecli, and self.supports_cli must be set to True in the
set_test_params method.
We can make supports_cli default to True in future once we know which
tests will fail with use_cli.
Change TestNodeCLI.__call__() to return a new instance instead of modifying the
existing instance. This way, it's possible to create different cli objects that
have their own options (for example -rpcwallet options to connect to different
wallets), and options set for a single call (`node.cli(options).method(args)`)
will no longer leak into future calls.
