Wallet Performance Improvements
-------------------------------
`zcashd 5.2.0` improved the performance of wallet scanning with multithreaded
batched trial decryption of Sapling outputs. However, for some nodes this
resulted in growing memory usage that would eventually cause an OOM abort. The
batch scanner now has a memory limit of 100 MiB.
`zcashd` now reports the following new metrics when `-prometheusport` is set:
- (counter) `zcashd.wallet.batchscanner.outputs.scanned`
- (gauge) `zcashd.wallet.batchscanner.size.transactions`
- (gauge) `zcashd.wallet.batchscanner.usage.bytes`
