Pull request description:
We have two types for tweaked/untweaked schnorr public keys to help users of the taproot API not mix these two keys up. Currently the `taproot` module uses 'raw' `schnoor::PublicKey`s.
Use the `schnoor` module's tweak/untweaked public key types for the `taproot` API.
Fixes: #725
Please note, I saw this was labeled 'good-first-issue' but I ignored that and greedily implemented a solution because of two reasons
1. We want to get taproot stuff done post haste.
2. I'm struggling to follow what is going on with all the taproot work so this seemed like a way to get my hands dirty.

Currently we calculate the parity during `tap_tweak` but do not return
it, this means others must re-do work done inside `tap_tweak` in order
to calculate the parity. We can just return the parity along with the
tweaked key.
Keeping inline with the method on `UntweakedPublicKey` that outputs a
`TweakedPublicKey` we can use the same name, for the same reasons.
Use `dangerous_assume_tweaked` as the constructor name to highlight the
fact that this constructor should probably not be being used.
We currently run `tweak_add_check` and use the result as a conditional
branch, the error path of which uses `unreachable`. This usage of
`unreachable` is non-typical. An 'unreachable' statement is by
definition supposed to be unreachable, it is not clear why we would need
to have a conditional branch to check an unreachable statement.
Use `debug_assert!` so programmer errors get caught in un-optimised
builds but in optimised builds the call to `tweak_add_check` is not even
done.
We have two types for tweaked/untweaked schnorr public keys to help
users of the taproot API not mix these two keys up. Currently the
`taproot` module uses 'raw' `schnoor::PublicKey`s.
Use the `schnoor` module's tweak/untweaked public key types for the
`taproot` API.
The merkle_root of an empty tree is undefined, this is the only error
case we have for the two `bitcoin_merkle_root*` functions. We can fully
describe this error case by returning an `Option` if args are found to
be empty. We can do the same for the wrapper functions in `block`
module.
While we are at it, refactor out a recursive helper function to make
reading the code between the two functions easier.

f2a6827982 Fix BinaryHeap direction for Taproot Huffman Encoder (Jeremy Rubin)
cccd75d004 Fix Weighting Addition to never error on overflow + prevent overflows from ever happening with wider integers (Jeremy Rubin)
Pull request description:
I noticed one cleanup & one bugfix while looking into the huffman algorithm:
1) the cleanup: we can use a u128 to guarantee no overflows, and saturating_add to guarantee reasonable behavior in any case
2) the bug: the binary heap is a max heap so the behavior ends up merging the nodes of the most likely entries repeatedly. a huffman encoder requires merging the least likely elements, so it should be reversed.

We test `bitcoin_merkle_root` over in the `blockdata::block` module.
Although the `bitcoin_merkle_root` and `bitcoin_merkle_root_inline`
functions are almost identical there is enough index manipulation done
that it is not immediately obvious that the code is error free.
Add a unit test that verifies that the two functions return the same
resulting merkle root.
Improve the rustdocs for the various `Address` constructors by putting
the brief description on a separate line with further description in its
own paragraph. This is the layout best practice for function documentation
using rustdocs.
Also, favour 'creates' over 'constructs' because it is more common in
the docs of this struct.

55c627715f Moving globals into PSBT struct (Dr Maxim Orlovsky)
Pull request description:
I took the most non-invasive approach to reduce diff size. Many parts of the code can be improved in style or further refactored (like some functions are not necessary and can be just moved to be part of other functions), but I'd prefer to do that as a separate PR once this will be merged.
My approach with this PR:
1. Remove `Global` struct by moving its fields right into `PartiallySignedTransaction` - but keep the `util/psbt/map/global.rs` file with all its logic
2. Keep existing `Map for Global` implementation in the same file, but just change it to `Map for PartiallySignedTransaction`
3. With serialization, convert `Global` deserialization into crate-private function and use it from `PartiallySignedTransaction` deserialization
4. Refactor the tests and imports as required to get the thing compile and pass tests
The refactoring will be followed by PR(s) adding support for Taproot

Clean up the module level (`//!`) rustdocs for all public modules.
I claim uniform is better than any specific method/style. I tried to fit
in with what ever was either most sane of most prevalent, therefore
attaining uniformity without unnecessary code churn (one exception being
the changes to headings described below).
Notes:
* Headings - use heading as a regular sentence for all modules e.g.,
```
//! Bitcoin network messages.
```
as opposed to
```
//! # Bitcoin Network Messages
```
It was not clear which style to use so I picked a 'random' mature
project and copied their style.
* Added 'This module' in _most_ places as the start of the module
description, however I was not religious about this one.
* Fixed line length if necessary since most of our code seems to follow
short (80 char) line lengths for comments anyways.
* Added periods and fixed obvious (and sometimes not so obvious)
grammatically errors.
* Added a trailing `//!` to every block since this was almost universal
already. I don't really like this one but I'm guessing it is Andrew's
preferred style since its on the copyright notices as well.
This refactors `Script::bytes_to_asm_fmt`` function to use an iterator
instead of index. Such change makes it easier to reason about overflows
or out-of-bounds accesses. As a result this also fixes three unlikely
overflows and happens to improve formatting to not output space at the
beginning in some weird cases.
To improve robustness even better it also moves `read_uint`
implementation to internal function which returns a more specific error
type which can be exhaustively matched on to guarantee correct error
handling. Probably because of lack of this the code was previously
checking the same condition twice, the second time being unreachable and
attempting to behave differently than the first one.
Finally this uses macro to deduplicate code which differs only in single
number, ensuring the code stays in sync across all branches.

This documents cargo features in two ways: explictly in text and in code
using `#[doc(cfg(...))]` attribute where possible. Notably, this is
impossible for `serde` derives. The attribute is contitional and only
activated for docs.rs or explicit local builds.
This change also adds `package.metadata.docs.rs` field to `Cargo.toml`
which instructs docs.rs to build with relevant features and with
`docsrs` config activated enabling `#[doc(cfg(...))] attributes.
I also took the opportunity to fix a few missing spaces in nearby code.
This refactors the code to make it possible to use `get_or_insert_with`
instead of unwrapping in `segwit_cache()`. To achieve it `common_cache`
is refactored into two functions: one taking only the required borrows
and the original calling the new one. `segwit_cache` then calls the new
function so that borrows are OK.
Apart from removing unwrap, this avoids calling `common_cache` multiple
times.
There was a question whether this is equally performant. There are
multiple good reasons why it should be:
1. `get_or_insert_with` is marked `#[inline]`
2. Any good optimizer will inline a function that is used exactly once
3. 1 and 2 conclude that the closure will get inlined
4. Computing self.tx can then be moved to the only branch where it is
required.
5. Even if get_or_insert_with didn't get optimized, which is extremely
unlikely, the `tx` field is at the beginning of the struct and it
probably has pointer alignment (`Deref` suggests it's a pointer).
Alignment larger than pointer is not used, so we can expect the
fields to be ordered as-defined. (This is not guaranteed by Rust but
there's not good reason to change the order in this case.) We can
assume that offset to tx is zero in most cases which means no
computation is actually needed so the expression before closure is
no-op short of passing it into the closure as an argument.
At the time of writing `#[inline]` can be seen at
https://doc.rust-lang.org/src/core/option.rs.html#933
Instead of using magic numbers we can define constants for the address
prefix bytes. This makes it easier for future readers of the code to see
what these values are if they don't know them and/or see that they are
correct if they do know them.

When `std` is off, `no-std` must be on, and we use the [`alloc`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/alloc/) and core2 crates. The `alloc` crate requires the user define a global allocator.
* Import from `core` and `alloc` instead of `std`
* `alloc` only used if `no-std` is on
* Create `std` feature
* Create `no-std` feature which adds a core2 dependency to polyfill `std::io` features. This is an experimental feature and should be
used with caution.
* CI runs tests `no-std`
* MSRV for `no-std` is 1.51 or so
Fixes#608. In #567 the Display impl for ChildNumber was
consciously changed, assuming the semver break would not
affect any correctly implemented downstream projects. We
were wrong.
It's very useful to Bitcoin applications, and especially "L2" ones, to
effectively compute feerates. Currently (and this is very unlikely to
change) bitcoind nodes compute the virtual size as a rounded-up division
of the size in witness units by 4, with a penalty for transactions that
are essentially >5% full of sigops.

This introduces some constants defined by Bitcoin Core which as a
consequence define some network rules in a new 'policy' module.
Only some were picked, which are very unlikely to change. Nonetheless a
Warning has been put in the module documentation.
Script-level constants are left into rust-miniscript where they are
already defined (src/miniscript/limits.rs).
It doesn't really make sense to have a constant for every common
script type's dust limit, instead we should just use the
`Script::dust_value()` function to have users calculate it.
The dust calculations added were only valid for P2WPKH and P2PKH
outputs, and somehow this fact was missed in review, despite the
upstream Core code being linked to and looked at by two reviewers
and the author (me).
Someday I will grow eyeballs, but that day is not today.
Right now, any sighash type could be parsed without error, which matches
consensus rules. However most of them would be invalid by standardness,
so it's a bit footgun-y (even more so for pre-signed transactions
protocols for which standardness is critical).
This adds `from_u32_standard()`, which takes care to error if we are
passed an invalid-by-current-policy-rules SIGHASH type.

Validating a block's proof-of-work involves computing the block hash.
Returning it from BlockHeader::validate_pow avoids having callers
recompute the block hash if it is needed.
This is instead of encode::Errors because the encoders should
not be allowed to return errors that don't originate in the writer
they are writing into.
This is a part of the method definition that has been relied upon for a
while already.
Instead of using a wildcard path for the `hash_types` module,
be explicit about what types we're using by using nested paths.
There are many benefits to this, including not polluting the namespace
and clearly demarcating the types' location.
Currently whenever an unrecognized network message is received, it is never
flushed from the read buffer, meaning that unless the stream is closed and
recreated it will keep returning the same error every time `read_next()` is
called.
This commit adds the length of the message to `UnrecognizedNetworkCommand`,
so that the `StreamReader` can flush those bytes before returning the error
to the caller.
`cloudhead` on IRC was asking how to properly use
`BlockHeader::validate_pow()` on genesis (or similar) when the
pow_limit field isn't expressible as a compact target (and, thus,
does not actually represent the PoW limit/genesis target). We
swap it for the actual PoW limit by truncating the way a compact
encoding round-trip would.
Note that, in Bitcoin Core, the original value is only ever used
once in its original form:
```
if (bnNew > bnPowLimit) // Note: bnPowLimit is params.powLimit
bnNew = bnPowLimit;
return bnNew.GetCompact();
```
Thus, even if Core adopted our change, as long as there exist no
256-bit integer x which satisfies
`x <= powLimit && x > encoding_roundtrip_truncated(powLimit)` and
`enoding_roundtrip_truncated(x) != powLimit`, the change would have
no impact on consensus.
It is trivial to show that there are no values which are between
the new value
(0x00000000ffff0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000)
and the original value
(0x00000000ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff)
which can be encoded in compact form, but it is also critically, no
such values will encode to a compact form of anything different than
the new value as the encoding always truncates the low bits, never
rounding up.
- Rename the `iter` method to `instructions`.
- Add `instructions_minimal` for minimal-enforced iteration.
- Iterator has `Result<Instruction, Error>` as items.
The Deserialize impls generated by serde_struct_impl and
serde_struct_human_string_impl need to be able to handle serialization
formats which serialize structs as sequences (such as bincode).
This commit adds visit_seq methods to the Visitor types defined by these
macros, in addition to the existing visit_map methods. The
implementation is taken directly from the serde docs:
https://serde.rs/deserialize-struct.html
Taking an external dependency just to convert ints to byte arrays
is somewhat of a waste, especially when Rust isn't very aggressive
about doing cross-crate LTO.
Note that the latest LLVM pattern-matches this, and while I haven't
tested it, that should mean this means no loss of optimization.
It has been a long time since Bitcoin's maximum network message
length was 32MB, so we should follow suit. This is also an important
DoS limit, so we should limit it as much as possible.
