Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#25610: wallet, rpc: Opt in to RBF by default
ab3c06db1aed979847158505f3df1dcea9fd6c2b doc: Release notes for default RBF (Andrew Chow)
61d9149e7804e2cec8fecf4150837344322eb301 rpc: Default rbf enabled (Andrew Chow)
e3c33637bac7db8ae56ab497df10911fad773981 wallet: Enable -walletrbf by default (Andrew Chow)
Pull request description:
The GUI currently opts in to RBF by default, but RPCs do not, and `-walletrbf` is default disabled. This PR makes the default in those two places to also opt in.
The last time this was proposed (#9527), the primary objections were the novelty at the time, the inability to bump transactions, and the gui not having the option to disable rbf. In the 5 years since, RBF usage has steadily grown, with ~27% of txs opting in. The GUI has the option to enable/disable RBF, and is also defaulted to having it enabled. And we have the ability to bump RBF'd transactions in both the RPC and the GUI. So I think it makes sense to finally change the default to always opt in to RBF.
