…d ones (net, rpcwallet) fa14f57 Assert that RPCArg names are equal to CRPCCommand ones (net, rpcwallet) (MarcoFalke) Pull request description: This is the last part split out from bitcoin#18531 to just touch some RPC methods. Description from the main pr: ### Motivation RPCArg names in the rpc help are currently only used for documentation. However, in the future they could be used to teach the server the named arguments. Named arguments are currently registered by the `CRPCCommand`s and duplicate the RPCArg names from the documentation. This redundancy is fragile, and has lead to errors in the past (despite having linters to catch those kind of errors). See section "bugs found" for a list of bugs that have been found as a result of the changes here. ### Changes The changes here add an assert in the `CRPCCommand` constructor that the RPCArg names are identical to the ones in the `CRPCCommand`. ### Future work > Here or follow up, makes sense to also assert type of returned UniValue? Sure, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. I am going to submit any further works as follow-ups, including: * Removing the CRPCCommand arguments, now that they are asserted to be equal and thus redundant * Removing all python regex linters on the args, now that RPCMan can be used to generate any output, including the cli.cpp table * Auto-formatting and sanity checking the RPCExamples with RPCMan * Checking passed-in json in self-check. Removing redundant checks * Checking returned json against documentation to avoid regressions or false documentation * Compile the RPC documentation at compile-time to ensure it doesn't change at runtime and is completely static ### Bugs found * The assert identified issue bitcoin#18607 * The changes itself fixed bug bitcoin#19250 ACKs for top commit: fjahr: tACK fa14f57 ryanofsky: Code review ACK fa14f57. Just straightforward replacements except code moved in `addnode`, and displatching updated in `bumpfee_helper` Tree-SHA512: e07af150f1d95a88e558256ce197a6b7dc6cd722a6d6c13c75d944c49c2e2441f8b8237e9f94b03db69fa18f9bda627b0781d5e1da70bf5415e09b38728a8cb1

Summary: While backporting [[bitcoin/bitcoin#19994 | core#19994]], I ran into two failing assertions: - our version of `getrawchangeaddress` does not have an "address_type" argument - the "hexstring" for `signrawtransactionwithwallet` has a typo Test Plan: `ninja all check-all` Reviewers: #bitcoin_abc, Fabien Reviewed By: #bitcoin_abc, Fabien Differential Revision: https://reviews.bitcoinabc.org/D10340
