Pull request description:

  Make reasoning about dependencies easier by not including unused dependencies.

  Please note that the removed headers are _not_ "transitively included" by other still included headers. Thus the removals are real.

  As an added bonus this change means less work for the preprocessor/compiler. At least 51 393 lines of code no longer needs to be processed:

  ```
  $ git diff -u HEAD~1 | grep -E '^\-#include ' | cut -f2 -d"<" | cut -f1 -d">" | \
        sed 's%^%src/%g' | xargs cat | wc -l
  51393
  ```

  Note that 51 393 is the lower bound: the real number is likely much higher when taking into account transitively included headers :-)

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.
