5eb20f81d9 Consistently use ParseHashV to validate hash inputs in rpc (Ben Woosley)
Pull request description:
ParseHashV validates the length and encoding of the string and throws
an informative RPC error on failure, which is as good or better than
these alternative calls.
Note I switched ParseHashV to check string length first, because
IsHex tests that the length is even, and an error like:
"must be of length 64 (not 63, for X)" is much more informative than
"must be hexadecimal string (not X)" in that case.

1f87c372b5 Simplify comparison in rpc_blockchain.py. (Daniel Kraft)
Pull request description:
The test for `gettxoutsetinfo` in `rpc_blockchain.py` verifies that the result is the same as before after invalidating and reconsidering a block. The comparison has to exclude the `disk_size` field, though, as it is not deterministic.
Instead of comparing all the other fields for equality, this change explicitly removes the `disk_size` field and then compares the full objects. This makes the intent more explicit (compare everything except for `disk_size`, not compare just a given list of fields) and also the code simpler.

This removes the need to do so manually every time a connection is added.

f98b54352 Only call NotifyBlockTip when the active chain changes (James O'Beirne)
152b7fb25 [tests] Add a (failing) test for waitforblockheight (James O'Beirne)
Pull request description:
This is a subset of the more controversial https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/12407, but this also adds a test demonstrating the bug.
In InvalidateBlock, we're calling NotifyBlockTip with the now-invalid block's prev regardless of what chain the ancestor block is on. This could create numerous issues, but it at least screws up `waitforblockheight` (or anything else relying on `rpc/blockchain.cpp:latestblock`) when InvalidateBlock is called on a block not in chainActive, which can happen via RPC.
Only call NotifyBlockTip when the block being marked invalid is on the active chain.
