Merge #16366: init: Use InitError for all errors in bitcoind/qt
fa6f402bde Call node->initError instead of InitError from GUI code (Russell Yanofsky)
fad2502240 init: Use InitError for all errors in bitcoind/qt (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  Using the same InitError for startup error in the daemon and the gui makes it possible to run the tests with the gui again:

  ```sh
  BITCOIND=bitcoin-qt ./test/functional/test_runner.py feature_includeconf feature_config_args

ACKs for top commit:
  hebasto:
    ACK fa6f402bde
  ryanofsky:
    utACK fa6f402bde. Only changes since last review are removing more includes and adding Node::initError method to avoid accessing node `InitError` function and global variables from GUI code.

Internal c++ interfaces

The following interfaces are defined here:

  • Chain — used by wallet to access blockchain and mempool state. Added in #14437, #14711, #15288, and #10973.

  • ChainClient — used by node to start & stop Chain clients. Added in #14437.

  • Node — used by GUI to start & stop bitcoin node. Added in #10244.

  • Wallet — used by GUI to access wallets. Added in #10244.

  • Handler — returned by handleEvent methods on interfaces above and used to manage lifetimes of event handlers.

  • Init — used by multiprocess code to access interfaces above on startup. Added in #10102.

The interfaces above define boundaries between major components of bitcoin code (node, wallet, and gui), making it possible for them to run in different processes, and be tested, developed, and understood independently. These interfaces are not currently designed to be stable or to be used externally.
