- Separation between SwapManager and its transport:
Legacy transpport uses http, Nostr uses websockets
- The transport uses a context to open/close connections.
This context is not async, because it needs to be called
from the GUI
- Swapserver fees values are initialized to None instead
of 0, so that any attempt to use them before the swap
manager is initialized will raise an exception.
- Remove swapserver fees disk caching (swap_pairs file)
- Regtests use http transport
- Android uses http transport (until QML is ready)
This will be useful if we decide to ship lntransport as a separate
package. It is also a conceptual cleanup.
Notes:
- lntransport still requires crypto.py
- parsing node id from a bolt11 invoice is not supported.
Previously it was only the actual commands that directly or indirectly verified
the password. This adds a check that runs for any command requiring a password.

This is most useful if the user wants to import a significant number of keys,
as every invocation of `importprivkey` results in rewriting the wallet file to disk.
The API of "importprivkey" is left unchanged for the single privkey case.
- the unlock command was replaced by an option to load_wallet,
because some applications (the swapserver plugin) need to be
executed with an unlocked password. Now the swapserver plugin
waits until the wallet is unlocked.
- wallet.unlock now checks password unconditionally, see #8799
Instead of some functions operating with hex strings,
and others using bytes, this consolidates most things to use bytes.
This mainly focuses on bitcoin.py and transaction.py,
and then adapts the API usages in other files.
Notably,
- scripts,
- pubkeys,
- signatures
should be bytes in almost all places now.
Previously, generally, in case of any error, commands would raise a generic "Exception()" and the CLI/RPC would convert that and return it as `str(e)`.
With this change, we now distinguish "user-facing exceptions" (e.g. "Password required" or "wallet not loaded") and "internal errors" (e.g. bugs).
- for "user-facing exceptions", the behaviour is unchanged
- for "internal errors", we now pass around the traceback (e.g. from daemon server to rpc client) and show it to the user (previously, assuming there was a daemon running, the user could only retrieve the exception from the log of that daemon). These errors use a new jsonrpc error code int (code 2).
As the logic only changes for "internal errors", I deem this change not to be compatibility-breaking.
----------
Examples follow.
Consider the following two commands:
```
@command('')
async def errorgood(self):
from electrum.util import UserFacingException
raise UserFacingException("heyheyhey")
@command('')
async def errorbad(self):
raise Exception("heyheyhey")
```

- rename globals
- also rm hardcoded strings from qml
- use consistent unit names in qml
(previously mixed sat/vB and sat/byte (latter coming from core lib))
qml: use backend sighash check and add user confirmation path
qt: use backend sighash check and add user confirmation path
qml: include get_warning_for_risk_of_burning_coins_as_fees test in txdetails
qt: add warning icon to sighash warning
add sighash and fee checks to wallet.sign_transaction, making all warnings fatal unless ignore_warnings is set to True
tests: test sign_transaction on both code paths with ignore_warnings True and False,
raise specific exceptions TransactionPotentiallyDangerousException and TransactionDangerousException
gui/qt/rbf_dialog.py (old) lines 57-64 were implementing logic that should not be part of GUI code.
Case in point, gui/qml/qetxfinalizer.py (old) lines 511-513 duplicated half of that logic but not the other half.
That logic is now moved to wallet.get_bumpfee_strategies_for_tx().
More context: a user on irc got confused when using the qml gui. They were sending "max" and wanted to bump_fee.
The qml gui selected the "preserve_payment" strategy by default, using which there was no solution, and the user
did not notice that the strategy can be altered (via the "method" dropdown). The qt gui had logic to select
"decrease_payment" by default in such a case (which does find a solution to bump) but this logic was not
duplicated in the qml gui.
Instead of duplicating the logic, this commit moves it to shared lib code.
Those commands were only used for testing.
inject_fees was particularly misleading, because an electrum
instance with an active network connection regularly updates
its fees, thus voiding the effecct of that command.
