Merge #17578: rpc: simplify getaddressinfo labels, deprecate previous behavior 
8925df86c4 doc: update release notes (Jon Atack)
8bb405bbad test: getaddressinfo labels purpose deprecation test (Jon Atack)
60aba1f2f1 rpc: simplify getaddressinfo labels, deprecate previous behavior (Jon Atack)
7851f14ccf rpc: incorporate review feedback from PR 17283 (Jon Atack)

Pull request description:

  This PR builds on #17283 (now merged) and is followed by #17585.

  It modifies the value returned by rpc getaddressinfo `labels` to an array of label name strings and deprecates the previous behavior of returning an array of JSON hash structures containing label `name` and address `purpose` key/value pairs.

  before
  ```
    "labels": [
      {
        "name": "DOUBLE SPEND",
        "purpose": "receive"
      }
  ```
  after
  ```
    "labels": [
      "DOUBLE SPEND"
    ]
  ```

  The deprecated behavior can be re-enabled by starting bitcoind with `-deprecatedrpc=labelspurpose`.

  For context, see:
  - https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17283#issuecomment-554458001
  - http://www.erisian.com.au/bitcoin-core-dev/log-2019-12-13.html#l-425 (lines 425-427)
  - http://www.erisian.com.au/bitcoin-core-dev/log-2019-11-22.html#l-622

  Reviewers: This PR may be tested manually by building, then running bitcoind with and without the `-deprecatedrpc=labelspurpose` flag while verifying the rpc getaddressinfo help text and `labels` output.

  Next steps: deprecate the rpc getaddressinfo `label` field (EDIT: done in #17585) and add support for multiple labels per address. This PR will unblock those.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
