Changes are as below:
Wrap CBlockHeader::nVersion into a new class (CBlockVersion). This allows to take care of interpreting the field into a base version, auxpow flag and the chain ID.
Update getauxblock.py for new 'generate' RPC call.
Add 'auxpow' to block JSON.
Accept auxpow as PoW verification.
Add unit tests for auxpow verification.
Add check for memory-layout of CBlockVersion.
Weaken auxpow chain ID checks for the testnet.
Allow Params() to overrule when to check the auxpow chain ID and for legacy blocks. Use this to disable the checks on testnet.
Introduce CPureBlockHeader.
Split the block header part that is used by auxpow and the "real" block header (that uses auxpow) to resolve the cyclic dependency between the two.
Differentiate between uint256 and arith_uint256.
This change was done upstream, modify the auxpow code.
Add missing lock in auxpow_tests.
Fix REST header check for auxpow headers.
Those can be longer, thus take that into account. Also perform the check actually on an auxpow header.
Correctly set the coinbase for getauxblock results.
Call IncrementExtraNonce in getauxblock so that the coinbase is actually initialised with the stuff it should be. (BIP30 block height and COINBASE_FLAGS.)
Implement getauxblock plus regression test.
Turn auxpow test into FIXTURE test.
This allows using of the Params() calls.
Move CMerkleTx code to auxpow.cpp.
Otherwise we get linker errors when building without wallet.
Fix rebase with BIP66.
Update the code to handle BIP66's nVersion=3.
Enforce that auxpow parent blocks have no auxpow block version.
This is for compatibility with namecoind. See also https://github.com/namecoin/namecoin/pull/199.
Move auxpow-related parameters to Consensus::Params.

d45b344ffd Bucket for inbound when scheduling invs to hide tx time (Gleb)
Pull request description:
It has been brought up to my attention that current random delays mechanism (originally intended to obfuscate transaction metadata) allows to easily estimate the time a transaction was received by a node.
It may be done by connecting multiple observer nodes to the same node. Each of those nodes will generate its own schedule of delays. Combined metadata regarding those events from different sources allows an observer to estimate transaction time.
After this patch a spy won't gain additional information by just creating multiple connections to a target.

25bc9615b7 Document validationinterace callback blocking deadlock potential. (Matt Corallo)
Pull request description:
From the branches-I've-had-lying-around-and-forgot-to-PR department...
This is a comment-only PR, but the comments point out an API quirk that isn't exactly trivial. None of our use-cases right now hit this, but if we were to call SyncWithValidationInterfaceQueue (eg to limit queue depth) in ATMP, I'm pretty sure we'd hit a deadlock there.

In `ProcessGetBlockData`, send the block data directly from disk if
type MSG_WITNESS_BLOCK is requested. This is a valid shortcut as the
on-disk format matches the network format.
This is expected to increase performance because a deserialization and
subsequent serialization roundtrip is avoided.
4a6c0e3dcf Modernize best block mutex/cv/hash variable naming (Pieter Wuille)
45dd135039 Fix csBestBlock/cvBlockChange waiting in rpc/mining (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
This is an alternative to #11694.
It reintroduces a uint256 variable with the best block hash, protected by csBestBlock, and only updated while holding it.
Also rename the involved variable to modern guidelines, as there are very few uses.

b55555d rpc: Add testmempoolaccept (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
To check if a single raw transaction makes it into the current transaction pool, one had to call `sendrawtransaction`. However, on success, this adds the transaction to the mempool with no easy way to undo.
The call `testmempoolaccept` is introduced to provide a way to solely check the result without changing the mempool state.

f38e4fd QA: Add -blocksdir test (Jonas Schnelli)
386a6b6 Allow to optional specify the directory for the blocks storage (Jonas Schnelli)
Pull request description:
Since the actual block files taking up more and more space, it may be desirable to have them stored in a different location then the data directory (use case: SSD for chainstate, etc., HD for blocks).
This PR adds a `-blocksdir` option that allows one to keep the blockfiles and the blockindex external from the data directory (instead of creating symlinks).
I fist had an option to keep the blockindex within the datadir, but seems to make no sense since accessing the index will (always) lead to access (r/w) the block files.

93a34cf Make DisconnectBlock unaware of where undo data resides on disk (Matt Corallo)
Pull request description:
CChainState should eventually, essentially, be our exposed "libconsensus", but we're probably a few releases away, so the real goal is to clarify our internal interfaces. The main split was a big step, but validation.cpp is still a somewhat ranomly-mixed bag of functions that are pure functions which validate inputs (which should probably either merge with their callers or move into another file in consensus/), read/write data from disk, manipulate our current chain state (which moves into CChainState), and do mempool transaction validation.
Obviously this is only a small step, but some effort is made to clean up what functions the functions in CChainState call, and obviously as things are added its easy to keep clear "CChainState::* cannot call anything except via callbacks through CValidationInterface, pure functions, or disk read/write things". Right now there are some glaring violations in mempool callbacks, and general flushing logic needs cleaning up (FlushStateToDisk maybe shouldnt be called, and there should be an API towards setDirtyBlockIndex, but I'll leave that for after @sipa's current changesets land).

Pull request description:
First commit just removes default arguments from `AcceptToMemoryPool` and consolidates two arguments, it does not change behavior.
Second commit finally fixes the fact that we're not meant to reject based on mempool min fee when adding a transaction from a disconnected block during a reorg as mentioned [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/9602#issue-202197849)
Third commit makes fee estimation ignore transactions added from a disconnected block during a reorg. I think this was another source of fee estimates returning estimates below 1000 sat/kB as in #11303.

- Move comment about transaction/block weight calculation so it applies not only to the GetBlockWeight function but also to GetTransactionWeight
- Fix comment in validation.cpp referencing future deployment of BIP113. It has already been deployed.
- The doc comment for BLOCK_DOWNLOAD_WINDOW wasn't updated since pruning was introduced, so it still refers to pruning as something that might happen in the future. A larger BLOCK_DOWNLOAD_WINDOW window would now, indeed, make pruning harder.
Combine fLimitFree and fOverrideMempoolLimit into a single boolean:
bypass_limits. This is used to indicate that mempool limiting based on feerate
should be bypassed. It is used when readding transactions from a reorg and then
the mempool is trimmed to size after all transactions are added and they can be
evaluated in the context of their descendants. No changes to behavior.
* This removes block-size-limiting code in favor of GBT clients
doing the limiting themselves (if at all).
* -blockmaxsize is deprecated and only used to calculate an implied
blockmaxweight, addressing confusion from multiple users.
* getmininginfo's currentblocksize return value was returning
garbage values, and has been removed, also removing a
GetSerializeSize call in some block generation inner loops and
potentially addressing some performance edge cases.
1aa97ee08 Add savemempool RPC (Lawrence Nahum)
467cbbcbf Add return value to DumpMempool (Lawrence Nahum)
Pull request description:
Adds a simple parameterless rpc command to dump the mempool.
Rationale:
Sometimes there can be a crash for whatever reason (bug, power loss, etc) causing the mempool.dat file to not be saved.
This change allows to script/cron the rpc call to have more regular saves to the file as well as cli/ad-hoc.
This should solve issue https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/11086
