  This is a "temporary" fix until #29553 gets merged, which will remove the script entirely.

  Handle the "Block height out of range" error gracefully by checking if the node has synchronized to or beyond the required block height, otherwise without this validation the node would keep the network disabled if the user selected that option.

  <details>
  <summary>Provide a user-friendly message if the block height is out of range and exit the script cleanly.</summary>

contrib: assume binary existence in sec/sym checks
If the binaries don't exist, the Guix build has failed for some other
reason.

There's no need to check for unknown architectures, or executable
formats, as the only ones that could be built are those that we've
configured toolchains for in Guix.

We've also been doing this inconsistently across the two scripts.

Pull request description:

  Remove `fees.h`, `errors.h`, and `spanparsing.h` from the util library. Specifically:

  - Move `Split` functions from `util/spanparsing.h` to `util/string.h`, using `util` namespace for clarity.
  - Move remaining spanparsing functions to `script/parsing.h` since they are used for descriptor and miniscript parsing.
  - Combine `util/fees.h` and `util/errors.h` into `common/messages.h` so there is a place for simple functions that generate user messages to live, and these functions are not part of the util library.

  Motivation for this change is that the util library is a dependency of the kernel, and we should remove functionality from util that shouldn't be called by kernel code or kernel applications. These changes should also improve code organization and make functions easier to discover. Some of these same moves are (or were) part of #28690, but did not help with code organization, or made it worse, so it is better to move them and clean them up in the same PR so code only has to change one time.

Pull request description:

  By defining a virtual interface class for the scheduler client, users of the kernel can now define their own event consuming infrastructure, without having to spawn threads or rely on the scheduler design.

  Removing `CScheduler` also allows removing the thread and exception modules from the kernel library.

  To make the `CMainSignals` class easier to use from a kernel library perspective, remove its global instantiation and adopt RAII practices.

  Renames `CMainSignals` to `ValidationSignals`, which more accurately describes its purpose and scope.

  Also make the `ValidationSignals` in the `ChainstateManager` and CTxMemPool` optional. This could be useful in the future for using or testing these classes without having to instantiate any form of signal handling.

  ---

  This PR is part of the [libbitcoinkernel project](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/27587). It improves the kernel API and removes two modules from the kernel library.

[refactor] Make signals optional in mempool and chainman
This is done in preparation for the next two commits, where the
CMainSignals are de-globalized.

This avoids adding new constructor arguments to the ChainstateManager
and CTxMemPool classes over the next two commits.

This could also allow future tests that are only interested in the
internal behaviour of the classes to forgo instantiating the signals.

This was take from

Updating it introduces some new options. For example specifying the
clang-format binary, which is useful for systems where clang tools are
shipped with a version suffix.

Pull request description:

  This PR resolves #27841 and some more:

  - Ensure that the snapshot height is higher than the pruned block height when the node is pruned (Suggested by @Sjors [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/28553#issuecomment-1804941396)).

  - Validate the correctness of the file path and check if the file already exists (@hazeycode's [#27845](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27845)).

  - Make network activity disablement optional for the user (Suggested by @Sjors [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16899#discussion_r342735815) and [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16899#issuecomment-536520911)).

  - Ensure the `reconsiderblock` command is triggered on exit (@hazeycode's same PR as above), even in the case of user interruption (Ctrl-C).

  In order to perform some testing please follow the instructions in the description of previous @hazeycode's PR #27845.

  With Python 3.9 / [PEP 585](https://peps.python.org/pep-0585/), [type hinting has become a little less awkward](https://docs.python.org/3.9/whatsnew/3.9.html#type-hinting-generics-in-standard-collections), as for collection types one doesn't need to import the corresponding capitalized types (`Dict`, `List`, `Set`, `Tuple`, ...) anymore, but can use the built-in types directly (see  https://peps.python.org/pep-0585/#implementation for the full list).

  This PR applies the replacement for all Python scripts (i.e. in the contrib and test folders) for the basic types, i.e.:

  - typing.Dict -> dict

  - typing.Set  -> set

  For an additional check, I ran mypy 1.6.1 on both master and the PR branch via
  ```
  $ mypy --ignore-missing-imports --explicit-package-bases $(git ls-files "*.py")
  ```
  and verified that the output is identical -- (from the 22 identified problems, most look like false-positives, it's probably worth it to go deeper here and address them in a follow-up though).

build: remove -bind_at_load usage
This is deprecated on macOS:
```bash
ld: warning: -bind_at_load is deprecated on macOS
```
and likely redundant anyways, given the behaviour of dyld3.

Unfortunately libtool is still injecting a `-bind_at_load`:
```bash
	# Don't allow lazy linking, it breaks C++ global constructors
	# But is supposedly fixed on 10.4 or later (yay!).
	if test CXX = "$tagname"; then
	  case ${MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET-10.0} in
	    10.[0123])
	      func_append compile_command " $wl-bind_at_load"
	      func_append finalize_command " $wl-bind_at_load"
	    ;;
	  esac
	fi
```
so this doesn't remove all the warnings, but removes us as a potential
source of them.

Note that anywhere the ld64 warnings are being emitted, we are already
not adding this flag to our hardened ldflags, because of `-Wl,-fatal_warnings`.

Pull request description:

  jamesob excluded `test_utxo_snapshots.sh` from the shell linter with this explanation: "Add the script to the shellcheck exception list since the quoted variables rule needs to be violated in order to get bitcoind to pick up on $EARLY_IBD_FLAGS." However, macrofake pointed out that single lines can be excluded from linting.

  This fixes one fixable rule violation, excludes the rest of the offending lines from the linter and then removes the exclusion of the `test_utxo_snapshots.sh` file. Also adds documentation.

53d7d35b58 Update parameters in headerssync.cpp (Pieter Wuille)
7899402cff Add headerssync-params.py script to the repository (Pieter Wuille)

Pull request description:

  Builds upon #25946, as it incorporates changes based on the selected values there.

  This adds the headerssync tuning parameters optimization script from https://gist.github.com/sipa/016ae445c132cdf65a2791534dfb7ae1 to the repository, updates the parameters based on its output, and adds release process instructions for doing this update in the future.

  A few considerations:
  * It would be a bit cleaner to have these parameters be part of `CChainParams`, but due to the nature of the approach, it really only applies to chains with unforgeable proof-of-work, which we really can only reasonably expect from mainnet, so I think it's fine to keep them local to `headerssync.cpp`. Keeping them as compile-time evaluatable constants also has a (likely negligible) performance impact (avoiding runtime modulo operations).
  * If we want to make sure the chainparams and headerssync params don't go out of date, it could be possible to run the script in CI, and and possibly even have the parameters be generated automatically at build time. I think that's overkill for how unfrequently these need to change, and running the script has non-trivial cost (~minutes in the normal python interpreter).
  * A viable alternative is just leaving this out-of-repo entirely, and just do ad-hoc updating from time to time. Having it in the repo and release notes does make sure it's not forgotten, though adds a cost to contributors/maintainers who follow the process.

529c92e837 guix: Update `python-lief` package to 0.13.2 (Hennadii Stepanov)

Pull request description:

  The Guix's `python-lief` package is going to move to using external deps, rather than the bundled ones (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-patches/2023-05/msg01302.html). We want to continue using our own package indefinitely, to keep the build simpler, and allow for easier updating.

  Changes in `contrib/devtools/security-check.py` are caused by 6357c6370b.

Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#26067: util: improve bitcoin-wallet exit codes
fa2b8ae0a2 util: improve bitcoin-wallet exit codes (MacroFake)

Pull request description:

  Refactors `bitcoin-wallet` so that it doesn't return a non-zero exit code by default, and makes the option handling more inline with the other binaries. i.e outputting `Error: too few parameters` if you don't pass any options.

  Fixing this means we can check the process output in `gen-manpages.py`; which addresses the remaining [review comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/24263#discussion_r806126705) from #24263.

Pull request description:

  create a script for parsing the output from `bitcoind --help` to create an example conf file for new users

  ## problem

  per #10746 , `bitcoin.conf` not being put into the data directory during installation causes some confusion for users when running bitcoin. in the discussion on the issue, one proposed solution was to have an example config file and instruct users to `cp` it into their data directory after startup. in addition to #10746 , there have been other requests for a "skeleton config file" (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/19641) to help users get started with configuring bitcoind.

  the main issue with an example config file is that it creates a second source of truth regarding what options are available for configuring bitcoind. this means any changes to the options (including the addition or removal of options) would have to be updated for the command line and also updated in the example file.

  this PR addresses this issue by providing a script to generate an example file directly from the `bitcoind --help` on-demand by running `contrib/devtools/gen-bitcoin-conf.sh`. this solution was originally proposed on #10746 and would also solve #19641 . this guarantees any changes made to the command-line options or the command-line options help would also be reflected in the example file after compiling and running the script.

  the main purpose of this script is to generate a config file to be included with releases, same as `gen-manpages.sh`. this ensures every release also includes an up-to-date, full example config file for users to edit. the script is also available for users who compile from source for generating an example config for their compiled binary.

  ## special considerations

  this removes the `bitcoin.conf` example file from the repo as it is now generated by this script. the original example file did contain extra text related to how to use certain options but going forward all option help docs should be moved into `init.cpp`

  this also edits `init.cpp` to have the option help indicate that `-conf` is not usable from the config file. this is similar to how `-includeconf` 's help indicates it cannot be used from the command line
