Merge #15620: rpc: Uncouple non-wallet rpcs from maxTxFee global

fa1ad200d3 doc: Add release notes for 15620 (MarcoFalke)
fa96d76421 rpc: Uncouple rpcs from maxTxFee global (MarcoFalke)
fa965e03c7 rpc: Use IsValidNumArgs over hardcoded size checks (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  This makes the rpcs a bit more stateless by falling back to their own default max fee instead of the global maxTxFee.

  A follow up pull request will move `-maxtxfee` to the wallet.

  See also related discussions:

  * `-maxtxfee` should not be used by both node and wallet #15355
  *  [RFC] Long term plan for wallet command-line args #13044

Updated RPCs
------------
* The -maxtxfee setting no longer has any effect on non-wallet RPCs.
The `sendrawtransaction` and `testmempoolaccept` RPC methods previously
accepted an `allowhighfees` parameter to fail the mempool acceptance in case
the transaction's fee would exceed the value of the command line argument
`-maxtxfee`. To uncouple the RPCs from the global option, they now have a
hardcoded default for the maximum transaction fee, that can be changed for
both RPCs on a per-call basis with the `maxfeerate` parameter. The
`allowhighfees` boolean option has been removed and replaced by the
`maxfeerate` numeric option.
