a82829f37e test: simplify (w)txid checks by avoiding .calc_sha256 calls (Sebastian Falbesoner)
346a099fc1 test: avoid unneeded hash -> uint256 -> hash roundtrips (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
In the functional test framework we currently have a strong tendency to treat and store identifiers that result from hash functions (e.g. (w)txids, block hashes) as integers, which seems an unnatural and confusing choice. Hashes are just pseudo-random sequences of bytes, and there is usually no need to apply integer operations on them; the only exceptions I could think of is PoW-verification of block hashes with the less-than (`<`) operator, or interpreting the byte-string as scalar in the EC-context for e.g. key derivation.
I'd hence argue that most uses of `ser_uint256`/`uint256_from_str` and txid conversions via `int(txid/blockhash, 16)` are potential code smells and should be reduced to a minimum long-term if possible. This PR is a first step into this direction, intentionally kept small with (what I think) uncontroversial changes for demonstration purposes, to check out if other contributors are interested in this. A next step could be to change the classes of primitives (CTransaction, CBlock etc.) and network messages (msg_) to store hash results as actual bytes (maybe in a class wrapping the bytes that offers conversion from/to human-readable strings [1], for easier interaction with RPC calls and debug outputs) rather than ints. But that would of course need larger, potentially more controversial changes, and its questionable if its really worth the effort.
[1] unfortunately, txids and block hashes are shown to user in reverse byte order, so e.g. a txid_bytes->txid_str conversion is not just a simple `txid_bytes.hex()`, but a `txid_bytes[::-1].hex()`

send_message only drops the bytes in a buffer and a sync is needed to
avoid intermittent test issues. Change the name of the method to make
this more apparent during review.

Calls on the tx.calc_sha256 method can be confusing, as they return
the result (either txid or wtxid, depending on the with_witness
boolean parameter) as integer rather than as actual (w)txid. Use
.rehash() and .getwtxid() instead to improve readability and in some
cases avoid a conversion from string-txid to an integer.
Previously, `wait_for_getheaders` would check whether a node had received **any**
getheaders message. This implied that, if a test needed to check for a specific block
hash within a headers message, it had to make sure that it was checking the desired message.
This normally involved having to manually clear `last_message`. This method, apart from being
too verbose, was error prone, given an undesired `getheaders` would make tests pass.
This adds the ability to check for a specific block_hash within the last `getheaders` message.
In order to prevent memory DoS, we must ensure that we don't accept a new
header into memory until we've performed anti-DoS checks, such as verifying
that the header is part of a sufficiently high work chain. This commit adds a
new argument to AcceptBlockHeader() so that we can ensure that all call-sites
which might cause a new header to be accepted into memory have to grapple with
the question of whether the header is safe to accept, or needs further
validation.
This patch also fixes two places where low-difficulty-headers could have been
processed without such validation (processing an unrequested block from the
network, and processing a compact block).
Credit to Niklas Gögge for noticing this issue, and thanks to Sjors Provoost
for test code.
The only place that segwit=True is for a block that contains only the
coinbase transaction. Since the witness commitment is optional if none
of the transactions have a witness, we can leave it out. This doesn't
change the test coverage, which is testing p2p compact block logic.
Suggested in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/20799#discussion_r867782119
Subsequent commits will remove support for other versions of compact blocks.
Add a test that a received `sendcmpct` message with version = 1 is
ignored.
The previous diff touched most files in ./test/, so bump the headers to
avoid having to touch them again for a bump later.

343dc4760f test: add test for high-bandwidth mode states in getpeerinfo (Sebastian Falbesoner)

30bc8fab68 net: save high-bandwidth mode states in CNodeStats (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
Fixes#19676, "_For every peer expose through getpeerinfo RPC whether or not we selected them as HB peers, and whether or not they selected us as HB peers._" See [BIP152](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0152.mediawiki), in particular the [protocol flow diagram](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/raw/master/bip-0152/protocol-flow.png). The newly introduced states are changed on the following places in the code:
* on reception of a `SENDCMPCT` message with valid version, the field `m_highbandwidth_from` is changed depending on the first integer parameter in the message (1=high bandwidth, 0=low bandwidth), i.e. it just mirrors the field `CNodeState.fPreferHeaderAndIDs`.
* after adding a `SENDCMPCT` message to the send queue, the field `m_highbandwidth_to` is changed depending on how the first integer parameter is set (same as above)
Note that after receiving `VERACK`, the node also sends `SENDCMPCT`, but that is only to announce the preferred version and never selects high-bandwidth mode, hence there is no need to change the state variables there, which are initialized to `false` anyways.

638441928a test: add parameterized constructor for msg_sendcmpct() (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
While working on the test for #19776 I noticed that creating a `sendcmpct` message is quite cumbersome -- due to the lack of a parameterized constructor, one needs to create an empty (that is, initialized with default values) object and then set the two fields one by one. This PR replaces the default constructor with a parameterized constructor and uses it in the test `p2p_compactblocks.py`, reducing LOC. No need to pollute the namespace with temporary throw-away message objects anymore.

dac7a111bd refactor: test: use _ variable for unused loop counters (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
This tiny PR substitutes Python loops in the form of `for x in range(N): ...` by `for _ in range(N): ...` where applicable. The idea is indicating to the reader that a block (or statement, in list comprehensions) is just repeated N times, and that the loop counter is not used in the body, hence using the throwaway variable. This is already done quite often in the current tests (see e.g. `$ git grep "for _ in range("`). Another alternative would be using `itertools.repeat` (according to Python core developer Raymond Hettinger it's [even faster](https://twitter.com/raymondh/status/1144527183341375488)), but that doesn't seem to be widespread in use and I'm not sure about a readability increase.
The only drawback I see is that whenever one wants to debug loop iterations, one would need to introduce a loop variable again. Reviewing this is basically a no-brainer, since tests would fail immediately if a a substitution has taken place on a loop where the variable is used.
Instances to replace were found by `$ git grep "for.*in range("` and manually checked.

This is a more narrowly-construed wait which eliminates the possibility of the
wait being triggered by other messages.

Remove tests of:
- compactblock behavior in a simulated pre-segwit version of bitcoind
This should have been removed a long time ago, as it is not generally
necessary for us to test the behavior of old nodes (except perhaps if we
want to test that upgrading from an old node to a new one behaves properly)
- compactblock behavior during segwit upgrade (ie verifying that network
behavior before and after activation was as expected)
This is unnecessary to test now that segwit activation has already happened.

5eb20f81d9 Consistently use ParseHashV to validate hash inputs in rpc (Ben Woosley)
Pull request description:
ParseHashV validates the length and encoding of the string and throws
an informative RPC error on failure, which is as good or better than
these alternative calls.
Note I switched ParseHashV to check string length first, because
IsHex tests that the length is even, and an error like:
"must be of length 64 (not 63, for X)" is much more informative than
"must be hexadecimal string (not X)" in that case.
