Notable changes
===============
RPC Changes
-----------
- `getdeprecationinfo` has several changes:
- It now returns additional information about currently deprecated and
disabled features.
- A new `end_of_service` object that contains both the block height for
end-of-service and the estimated time that the end-of-service halt is
expected to occur. Note that this height is just an approximation and
will change over time as the end-of-service block height approaches,
due to the variability in block times. The
`end_of_service` object is intended to replace the `deprecationheight`
field; see the [Deprecations](#deprecations) section for additional detail.
- This RPC method was previously only available for mainnet nodes; it is now
also available for testnet and regtest nodes, in which case it does not
return end-of-service halt information (as testnet and regtest nodes do not
have an end-of-service halt feature.)
- Several `z_sendmany`, `z_shieldcoinbase` and `z_mergetoaddress` failures have
moved from synchronous to asynchronous, so while you should already be
checking the async operation status, there are now more cases that may trigger
failure at that stage.
- The `AllowRevealedRecipients` privacy policy is now required in order to choose a
transparent change address for a transaction. This will only occur when the wallet
is unable to construct the transaction without selecting funds from the transparent
pool, so the impact of this change is that for such transactions, the user must specify
`AllowFullyTransparent`.
- The `z_shieldcoinbase` and `z_mergetoaddress` RPC methods now support an
optional privacy policy.
- The `estimatepriority` RPC call has been removed.
- The `priority_delta` argument to the `prioritisetransaction` RPC call now has
no effect and must be set to a dummy value (0 or null).
Changes to Transaction Fee Selection
------------------------------------
- The `-mintxfee` and `-sendfreetransactions` options have been removed. These
options used to instruct the wallet's legacy transaction creation APIs
(`sendtoaddress`, `sendmany`, and `fundrawtransaction`) to increase fees to
this limit and to use a zero fee for "small" transactions that spend "old"
inputs, respectively. They will now cause a warning on node startup if used.
Changes to Block Template Construction
--------------------------------------
We now use a new block template construction algorithm documented in
[ZIP 317](https://zips.z.cash/zip-0317#recommended-algorithm-for-block-template-construction).
- This algorithm no longer favours transactions that were previously considered
"high priority" because they spent older inputs. The `-blockprioritysize` config
option, which configured the portion of the block reserved for these transactions,
has been removed and will now cause a warning if used.
- The `-blockminsize` option, which configured the size of a portion of the block
to be filled regardless of transaction fees or priority, has also been removed
and will cause a warning if used.
- A `-blockunpaidactionlimit` option has been added to control the limit on
"unpaid actions" that will be accepted in a block for transactions paying less
than the ZIP 317 fee. This defaults to 50.
Removal of Priority Estimation
------------------------------
- Estimation of "priority" needed for a transaction to be included within a target
number of blocks, and the associated `estimatepriority` RPC call, have been
removed. The format for `fee_estimates.dat` has also changed to no longer save
these priority estimates. It will automatically be converted to the new format
which is not readable by prior versions of the software. The `-txconfirmtarget`
config option is now obsolete and has also been removed. It will cause a
warning if used.
[Deprecations](https://zcash.github.io/zcash/user/deprecation.html)
--------------
The following features have been deprecated, but remain available by default.
These features may be disabled by setting `-allowdeprecated=none`. 18 weeks
after this release, these features will be disabled by default and the following
flags to `-allowdeprecated` will be required to permit their continued use:
- `deprecationinfo_deprecationheight`: The `deprecationheight` field of
`getdeprecationinfo` has been deprecated and replaced by the `end_of_service`
object.

[rpc] Remove estimatepriority.
[mining] Remove -blockprioritysize.
[debug] Change -printpriority option
[cleanup] Remove estimatePriority
[rpc] sendrawtransaction no longer bypasses minRelayTxFee
[test] Remove priority from tests
[rpc] Remove priority information from mempool RPC calls
[rpc] Remove priorityDelta from prioritisetransaction

Daira Emma Hopwood (34):
Remove unnecessary #include.
Adjust indentation to be consistent without changing existing code.
Repair show_help RPC test.
Fix bit-rotted code in miner tests.
Implement ZIP 317 computations.
`cargo update`
Add audits for updates to futures-* 0.3.28 and redjubjub 0.7.0.
Add `examine`, a wrapper around `std::visit` that reverses the arguments.
Use the new `examine` macro to replace all instances of `std::visit(match {...}, specimen)`, improving code readability.
Refactoring to avoid duplicated code.
Refactoring to avoid an unnecessary temporary.
Refactor that avoids using exceptions for local flow control and is simpler.
Correct the documentation of `-rpcconnect` in the example `zcash.conf`. `-rpcconnect` is only used by `zcash-cli`.

Warn on node startup if the removed `-blockprioritysize` option is set to a non-zero value.
Log (at the mempool DEBUG level) when a transaction cannot be accepted to the mempool because its modified fee is below the minimum relay fee.
Fix the dust threshold rate to three times 100 zats/1000 bytes. (We express it that way rather than 300 zats/1000 bytes, because the threshold is always rounded to an integer and then multiplied by 3.)
Fix some messages, comments, and documentation that: * used "fee" to mean "fee rate", "kB" to mean 1000 bytes, "satoshis" to mean zatoshis, or that incorrectly used "BTC" in place of "ZEC"; * used obsolete concepts such as "zero fee" or "free transaction"; or * did not accurately document their applicability.
Fix tests that failed due to the minimum relay fee being enforced.
Fix miner_tests btest.
Fix mempool_packages and prioritisetransaction RPC tests.
Implement `GetUnpaidActionCount` and `GetWeightRatio` for ZIP 317.
ZIP 317 block construction algorithm. This breaks tests which are repaired in subsequent commits.
Add assertions that `GetRandInt*` functions are called with `nMax >= 0`. All existing uses have been checked to ensure they are consistent with this assertion.
Repair `miner_tests.py` btest.
Repair some RPC tests.
mergetoaddress_helper.py: Use `generate_and_check` helper to mine a block and make sure that it contains the expected number of transactions.
mergetoaddress_helper.py: use Decimal for amounts and integers otherwise.
Remove the implementation of score-based block template construction and the `-blockminsize` option.
Add a `-blockunpaidactionlimit` config option to configure the per-block limit on unpaid actions for ZIP 317 block template construction.
miner_tests.cpp improvements.
random.h documentation improvements.
Fix/suppress clippy warnings.
