Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#35630: test: Add importdescriptors rpc error test coverage

This commit only adds new test cases to Bitcoin Core's functional test suite. It does not change any production wallet, node, or RPC code. The tests verify that the importdescriptors RPC reports errors in the right order, rejects bad times…

Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#35180: coins: group private cache helpers

This change is purely a code cleanup: it moves two internal helper functions of a Bitcoin Core cache class into the private section of the class and removes a duplicate 'private:' label. There is no change to what the code does, no bug fix…

Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#35582: rpc: reject null for optional parameters

This Bitcoin Core change tightens how three RPC commands (scantxoutset, scanblocks, deriveaddresses) handle the value null when it is passed for optional parameters. Previously, explicitly passing null could be treated differently from sim…

kernel: Generate a signet with a challenge

This commit adds a new public API to Bitcoin Core's libbitcoinkernel that lets callers create a custom 'signet' network with their own challenge script. Signet is a test network where blocks must be signed by a known key. The change only e…

blockstorage: Remove cs_LastBlockFile recursive mutex

This commit removes a redundant internal lock called cs_LastBlockFile from Bitcoin Core's block storage code. The developer argues that the lock was unnecessary because another lock, cs_main, already protects the same data. The change repl…
