Rust version 1.56.0 introduced edition 2021. Shortly afterwards, on
October 21 2021 Rust version 1.56.1 was released.
Debian stable is currently shipping `rustc 1.63.0`.
Our stated MSRV policy is: In Debian stable and at least 2 years old.
Therefore our MSRV policy is met by Rust version 1.56.1 and we can strat
to bump our MSRV org wide.
Start by bumping the `rust-bitcoin` and `hashes` MSRV to Rust 1.56.1,
includes:
- Update docs.
- Update CI and remove pinning.
- Update the build files and remove now stale cfg attributes rust_v_1_x
for values less than the new MSRV.
- Use new `IntoIterator` for arrays so we no longer need to allocate a
vector to iterate.

Previously, each unique compiler cfg attribute that appeared in the
codebase was hard coded and emitted to stdout at compile time. This
meant keeping the file up to date as different compiler cfg attributes
changed. It's inconsequential to emit a compiler version that's not
used, so this change just emits all possibilities to reduce the
maintenance burden of the build script.
We would like the codebase to be optimized for readability not ease of
development, as such code that is write-once-read-many should not use
macros.
Currently we use the `impl_std_error` macro to implement
`std::error::Error` for struct error types. This makes the code harder
to read at a glance because one has to think what the macro does.
Remove the `impl_std_error` macro and write the code explicitly.

In preparation for release bump the version and add a changelog entry.
Includes updating the dependency in `bitcoin` and `hashes` as well as
the minimal/recent lock files.
This implements basic facilities to conditionally carry string inputs in
parse errors. This includes:
* `InputString` type that may carry the input and format it
* `parse_error_type!` macro creating a special type for parse errors
* `impl_parse` implementing parsing for various types as well as its
`serde`-supporting alternative
6cab7beba3 Deprecate min/max_value methods (Tobin C. Harding)
5fbbd483ea Use MIN/MAX consts instead of min/max_value (Tobin C. Harding)
3885f4d430 Add MIN/MAX consts to amounts (Tobin C. Harding)
Pull request description:
The new MSRV (1.48.0) uses associated consts MAX/MIN instead of functions, we had functions to be compliant with the old MSRV.
~Remove all methods `min_value` and `max_value` including calls to these methods on stdlib types.~
PR is now split into three patches:
- patch 1: Add missing associated consts MIN/MAX as needed
- patch 2: Use consts instead of method calls
- patch 3: Deprecate methods `min_value` and `max_value`

c4c64c0dc5 Test with minimal dependency versions (Martin Habovstiak)
d5655d503a Bump core2 dependency from 0.3.0 -> 0.3.2 (Tobin C. Harding)
Pull request description:
This is work originally done by Kixunil in #1272, I picked it up to help out. The only changes I made were rebasingg, updating the recent lock file, adding `--locked` to hashes contrib file, and adding a co-developed-by tag for accountability.
It could happen that we unknowingly depend on a new version of a crate without updating `Cargo.toml`. This could cause resolution issues for downstream users. It's also unclear for outsiders to know with which dependencies did we test the crate.
This change commits two lock files: `minimal` and `recent`. `minimal` contains minimal dependency versions, while `recent` contains dependency versions at the time of making the change.
Further, this adds CI jobs to test with both lock files, CI job for `internals` crate, removes old `serde` pinning and prints a warning if `recent` is no longer up to date. (We may have to override it somehow if any crate breaks MSRV.)
The documentation is also updated accordingly.

We currently use the functions `min_value` and `max_value` because the
consts were not available in Rust 1.41.1, however we recently bumped the
MSRV so we can use the consts now.

Closes#1230
As we did for the `bitcoin` crate, remove attribution from all files in
the `internals` crate.
While we are at it add an SPDX line to the few files missing it, whether
this license nonsense is even needed is left as an argument for another
day.
Justification:
Currently we have a mishmash of attribution lines accompanying the SPDX
identifier. These lines are basically meaningless because:
- The date is often wrong
- The original author attributed is not the only contributor to a file
- The term "rust bitcoin developers" is basically just noise
Just remove all the attribution lines and be done with it.
If we use `#![cfg_attr(docsrs, feature(doc_auto_cfg))]` instead of
`#![cfg_attr(docsrs, feature(doc_cfg))]` we no longer need to manually
mark types with `#[cfg_attr(docsrs, doc(cfg(feature = "std")))]`.
Sweeeeeet.
Enable formatting in CI by doing:
- Add a section to the `test.sh` scripts to run the formatter (guarded by
the env variable `DO_FMT`) for all crates (bitcoin, hashes, internals).
- Add `DO_FMT` to the nightly `Tests` CI job.
Various formatting issues have crept into the codebase because we do not
run the formatter in CI.
In preparation for enabling formatting checks in CI run `cargo +nightly
fmt` to fix current formatting issues. No changes other than those
create by the formatter.
We can check which files are included in the packaged release with
`cargo package --list `.
Add an `exclude` section to each manifest that excludes `tests/` and
`contrib/`. Not all crates have a `tests/` directory yet but they should
so add the exclude anyway to future proof the crates.
The `ToHex` trait was replaced by either simple `Display`/`LowerHex`
where appropriate or `DisplayHex` from `bitcoin_internals` which is
faster.
This change replaces the usages and removes the trait.
3e520f9094 Use hex from internals rather than hashes (Martin Habovstiak)
Pull request description:
`bitcoin-internals` contains a more performant implementation of hex encoding than what `bitcoin_hashes` uses internally. This switches the implementations for formatting trait implementations as a step towards moving over completely.
The public macros are also changed to delegate to inner type which is technically a breaking change but we will break the API anyway and the consuers should only call the macro on the actual hash newtypes where the inner types already have the appropriate implementations.
Apart from removing reliance on internal hex from public API this reduces duplicated code generated and compiled. E.g. if you created 10 hash newtypes of SHA256 the formatting implementation would be instantiated 11 times despite being the same.
To do all this some other changes were required to the hex infrastructure. Mainly modifying `put_bytes` to accept iterator (so that `iter().rev()` can be used) and adding a new `DisplayArray` type. The iterator idea was invented by Tobin C. Harding, this commit just adds a bound check and generalizes over `u8` and `&u8` returning iterators.
While it may seem that `DisplayByteSlice` would suffice it'd create and initialize a large array even for small arrays wasting performance. Knowing the exact length `DisplayArray` fixes this.
Another part of refactoring is changing from returning `impl Display` to return `impl LowerHex + UpperHex`. This makes selecting casing less annoying since the consumer no longer needs to import `Case` without cluttering the API with convenience methods.

This fixes several API bugs:
* Use `TryFrom` instead of `From` for fallible conversions
* Move byte conversion methods from `impl_array_newtype` to
`impl_bytes_newtype`
* Add missing trait impls like `AsRef`, `Borrow`, their mutable versions
and infallible conversions from arrays

Pnicking on oversized slice is useful to catch errors in code that's
supposed to know the exact sizes but this is undesirable in code that
doesn't. These two methods help with handling the case when `buf.len()`
is not known upfront.
All the types that we define with `impl_array_newtype` are
`Copy` so the correct conversion method to get the underlying byte array
is `to_bytes`. We currently provide `into_bytes` as well as `to_bytes`,
with one of them calling `clone` - this is unnecessary and against
convention.
- Remove `into_bytes` and for `to_bytes` just return the inner field.
- Add a method that causes build to fail if `Copy` is not implemented.
`impl_array_newtype` is an internal macro, move it to a new, ever so
meaningfully named, `macros` module.
Use `#[macro_export]`, no other changes to the macro.
1bf885550e Redesign `hex::BufEncoder` to accept owned arrays (Martin Habovstiak)
Pull request description:
Not being able to create an owned `BufEncoder` prevented returning it from functions which need to allocate the buffer on stack. Such is the case in WIP serde via consensus serialzation.
This change refactors `OutBytes` to be unsized, adds an `AsOutBytes` trait and uses that one instead of `Into` to perform the conversion.
Closes#1270
This is meant as potentially mergeable demonstration. Interestingly, it was easier than I expected.

This change refactors `OutBytes` to be unsized, adds an `AsOutBytes`
trait and uses that one instead of `Into` to perform the conversion.
This adds a build script that automatically activates the cfg if the
version is sufficient. We don't make API changes here, just improve
debugging by enabling `track_caller`.
There's a `hex` module in `bitcoin_hashes` which is a bit out of place
and not very fast - it passes each *digit* through dynamic dispatch not
only adding overhead but also not allowing `String` to make better
allocations.
This change adds basic support for hex encoding using a stack-allocated
buffer which minimizes the overhead of dynamic dispatch. It also
provides a new `DisplayHex` trait designed to replace `ToHex` found in
`bitcoin_hashes`.
