This patch removes the need for the intermediary Base58 type
CBitcoinAddress, by providing {Encode,Decode,IsValid}Destination
function that directly operate on the conversion between strings
and CTxDestination.
This contains most of the changes of 10563 "remove safe mode", but doesn't
remove the safe mode yet, but put an `ObserveSafeMode()` check in
individual calls with okSafeMode=false.
This cleans up the ugly "okSafeMode" flag from the dispatch tables,
which is not a concern for the RPC server.

Pull request description:
This is a followup to #10783.
- The first commit doesn't change behavior at all, just simplifies code.
- The second commit just changes RPC methods to treat null arguments the same as missing arguments instead of throwing type errors.
- The third commit updates developer notes after the cleanup.
- The forth commit does some additional code cleanup in `getbalance`.
Followup changes that should happen in future PRs:
- [ ] Replace uses of `.isTrue()` with calls to `.get_bool()` so numbers, objects, and strings cause type errors instead of being interpreted as false. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11050#discussion_r133850525
- [ ] Add braces around if statements. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11050#discussion_r133851133
- [ ] Maybe improve UniValue type error exceptions and eliminate RPCTypeCheck and RPCTypeCheckArgument functions. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11050#discussion_r133829303

e029c6e Only return hex field once in getrawtransaction (Andrew Chow)
Pull request description:
The hex is already returned in `TxToUniv()`, no need to give it out a second time in getrawtransaction itself.

This changes RPC methods to treat null arguments the same as missing arguments,
instead of throwing type errors. Specifically:
- `getbalance` method now returns the wallet balance when the `account` param
is null instead of throwing a type error (same as when parameter is missing).
It is still an error to supply `minconf` or `watchonly` options when the
account is null.
- `addnode` and `setban` methods now return help text instead of type errors if
`command` params are null (same as when params are missing).
- `sendrawtransaction`, `setaccount`, `movecmd`, `sendfrom`,
`addmultisigaddress`, `listaccounts`, `lockunspent` methods accept null
default values where missing values were previously allowed, and treat them
the same.

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.

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.

We can call gettxoutproof() with a list of transactions. Currently, if
the first transaction is unspent (and all other transactions are in the
same block), then the call will succeed. If the first transaction has
been spent, then the call will fail. The means that the following two
calls will return different results:
gettxoutproof(unspent_tx1, spent_tx1)
gettxoutproof(spent_tx1, unspent_tx1)
This commit makes behaviour independent of transaction ordering by looping
through all transactions provided and trying to find which block they're in.
This commit also increases the test coverage and tests more failure
cases for gettxoutproof()
This patch makes several related changes:
* Changes the CCoinsView virtual methods (GetCoins, HaveCoins, ...)
to be COutPoint/Coin-based rather than txid/CCoins-based.
* Changes the chainstate db to a new incompatible format that is also
COutPoint/Coin based.
* Implements reconstruction code for hash_serialized_2.
* Adapts the coins_tests unit tests (thanks to Russell Yanofsky).
A side effect of the new CCoinsView model is that we can no longer
use the (unreliable) test for transaction outputs in the UTXO set
to determine whether we already have a particular transaction.
This silently skips trying to merge signatures from inputs which
do not exist from transactions provided to signrawtransaction,
instead of hitting an assert.
The meaning is clear from the context, and we're inconsistent here.
Also save typing when using named arguments.
- `bitcoinaddress` -> `address`
- `bitcoinprivkey` -> `privkey`
- `bitcoinpubkey` -> `pubkey`
