bb5b1c0b2d [Docs] upgrade rescan time warning from minutes to >1 hour (Mason Simon)
Pull request description:
When I rescanned just now it took well over an hour. The time warning "may take minutes" didn't prepare me for that.

227d27e70c Use pushKV in some new PSBT RPCs. (Daniel Kraft)
Pull request description:
Most of the code uses `UniValue::pushKV` where appropriate, but some new RPC code related to PSBTs did not. This fixes those places - after this change, there are no remaining source files I could find that contain `push_back(Pair(`.

1f87c372b5 Simplify comparison in rpc_blockchain.py. (Daniel Kraft)
Pull request description:
The test for `gettxoutsetinfo` in `rpc_blockchain.py` verifies that the result is the same as before after invalidating and reconsidering a block. The comparison has to exclude the `disk_size` field, though, as it is not deterministic.
Instead of comparing all the other fields for equality, this change explicitly removes the `disk_size` field and then compares the full objects. This makes the intent more explicit (compare everything except for `disk_size`, not compare just a given list of fields) and also the code simpler.

e254ff5d53 Introduce a maximum size for locators. (Gregory Maxwell)
Pull request description:
The largest sensible size for a locator is log in the number of blocks.
But, as noted by Coinr8d on BCT a maximum size message could encode a
hundred thousand locators. If height were used to limit the messages
that could open new attacks where peers on long low diff forks would
get disconnected and end up stuck.
Ideally, nodes first first learn to limit the size of locators they
send before limiting what would be processed, but common implementations
back off with an exponent of 2 and have an implicit limit of 2^32
blocks, so they already cannot produce locators over some size.
Locators are cheap to process so allowing a few more is harmless,
so this sets the maximum to 64-- which is enough for blockchains
with 2^64 blocks before the get overhead starts increasing.

With watching only inputs, we do not know how large the signatures
for those inputs will be as their signers may not have implemented
71 byte signatures. Thus we estimate their fees using the 72 byte
dummy signature to ensure that we pay enough fees.
This only effects fundrawtransaction when includeWatching is true.
When extra entropy is not specified by the caller, CKey::Sign will
now always create a signature that has a low R value and is at most
70 bytes. The resulting signature on the stack will be 71 bytes when
the sighash byte is included.
Using low R signatures means that the resulting DER encoded signature
will never need to have additional padding to account for high R
values.

This sets the limit to an absurdly high amount of 101 in order to
maximize compatibility with existing software.
Calls ReloadDbEnv after encrypting the wallet so that the database
environment is flushed, closed, and reopened to prevent unencrypted
keys from being saved on disk.
Adds a ReloadDbEnv function to BerkeleyEnvironment in order to close all Db
instances, closes the environment, resets it, and then reopens
the BerkeleyEnvironment.
Also adds a ReloadDbEnv function to BerkeleyDatabase that calls
BerkeleyEnvironment's ReloadDbEnv.

faab63111d shutdown: Stop threads before resetting ptrs (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
On shutdown some threads would continue to run after or during a pointer reset. This leads to occasional segfaults on shutdown.
Fix this by resetting the smart pointers after all threads that might read from them have been stopped.
This should fix:
* A segfault in the txindex thread, that occurs when the txindex destructor is done, but the thread was not yet stopped (as this is done in the base index destructor)
* A segfault in the scheduler thread, which dereferences conman. (e.g. CheckForStaleTipAndEvictPeers)

ParseHashV validates the length and encoding of the string and throws
an informative RPC error on failure, which is as good or better than
these alternative calls.
Note I switched ParseHashV to check string length first, because
IsHex tests that the length is even, and an error like:
"must be of length 64 (not 63, for X)" is much more informative than
"must be hexadecimal string (not X)"
23fbbb100f wallet: sum ancestors rather than taking max in output groups (Karl-Johan Alm)
Pull request description:
This is pointed out in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/12257#discussion_r204549758.
Basically, the ancestors gives an indication as to how many ancestors the resulting transaction will have, which is more precise when summing up the values, rather than taking the maximum, since all the coins in the group will become ancestors if selected.

faa24441ec policy: Remove promiscuousmempoolflags (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
It seems odd to clutter validation code with features that can only ever be used for testing (testnet or regtest). Removing that test-only code makes the mempool logic less painful to understand and easier to reason about when changed or refactored in the future.

93de2891fa wallet: assert to ensure accuracy of CMerkleTx::GetBlocksToMaturity (Ben Woosley)
Pull request description:
According to my understanding, it should not be possible for coinbase
transactions to be conflicting, thus it should not be possible for
GetDepthInMainChain to return a negative result. If it did, this would
also result in innacurate results for GetBlocksToMaturity due to the
math therein. asserting ensures accuracy.
