The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a straightforward internal code cleanup in Bitcoin Core's miniscript module. It changes several data structures from public structs with directly accessible fields to classes with private fields and public accessor methods, and removes 'const' from some fields so that objects can be moved efficiently in a later commit. There is no change to network rules, wallet behavior, or any user-visible functionality, and nothing in the diff suggests a security fix or vulnerability.

Recommended action

No security action needed. Treat as normal refactoring during code review; verify that the follow-up move-operations commit does not introduce logic changes.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
