Merge #16185: gettransaction: add an argument to decode the transaction

9965940e35c445ccded55510348af228ff22f0e9 doc: Add release note for the new gettransaction argument (darosior)
b8b3f0435a2837d3897e9e232ef6ca839ce74eb8 tests: Add a new functional test for gettransaction (darosior)
7f3bb247a811582d1aa4805d8e601c19808dc7ba gettransaction: add an argument to decode the transaction (darosior)

Pull request description:

  This PR adds a new parameter to the `gettransaction` call : `decode`. If set to `true`, it will add a new `decoded` field to the response. This mimics the behavior of `getrawtransaction`'s `verbose` argument to avoid using 2 calls if we want to decode a wallet transaction (`gettransaction` then `decoderawtransaction`).

  Fix #16181 .

+RPC changes
+-----------
+The `gettransaction` RPC now accepts a third (boolean) argument `decode`. If set to `true`, a new `decoded` field will be added to the response containing the decoded transaction.
