-Configuration
--------------
-
-The outbound message high water mark of the ZMQ PUB sockets are now
-configurable via the options:
-
-`-zmqpubhashtxhwm=n`
-
-`-zmqpubhashblockhwm=n`
-
-`-zmqpubrawblockhwm=n`
-
-`-zmqpubrawtxhwm=n`
-
-Each high water mark value must be an integer greater than or equal to 0.
-The high water mark limits the maximum number of messages that ZMQ will
-queue in memory for any single subscriber. A value of 0 means no limit.
-When not specified, the default value continues to be 1000.
-When a ZMQ PUB socket reaches its high water mark for a subscriber, then
-additional messages to the subscriber are dropped until the number of
-queued messages again falls below the high water mark value.

-Miscellaneous RPC changes
-------------
-
-- `getaddressinfo` now reports `solvable`, a boolean indicating whether all information necessary for signing is present in the wallet (ignoring private keys).
-- `getaddressinfo`, `listunspent`, and `scantxoutset` have a new output field `desc`, an output descriptor that encapsulates all signing information and key paths for the address (only available when `solvable` is true for `getaddressinfo` and `listunspent`).

-Low-level RPC changes
----------------------
-
-The `importmulti` RPC will now contain a new per-request `warnings` field with strings
-that explain when fields are being ignored or inconsistant, if any.

-RPC importprivkey: new label behavior
--------------------------------------
-
-Previously, `importprivkey` automatically added the default empty label
-("") to all addresses associated with the imported private key. Now it
-defaults to using any existing label for those addresses. For example:
-
-- Old behavior: you import a watch-only address with the label "cold
- wallet". Later, you import the corresponding private key using the
- default settings. The address's label is changed from "cold wallet"
- to "".
-
-- New behavior: you import a watch-only address with the label "cold
- wallet". Later, you import the corresponding private key using the
- default settings. The address's label remains "cold wallet".
-
-In both the previous and current case, if you directly specify a label
-during the import, that label will override whatever previous label the
-addresses may have had. Also in both cases, if none of the addresses
-previously had a label, they will still receive the default empty label
-(""). Examples:
-
-- You import a watch-only address with the label "temporary". Later you
- import the corresponding private key with the label "final". The
- address's label will be changed to "final".
-
-- You use the default settings to import a private key for an address that
- was not previously in the wallet. Its addresses will receive the default
- empty label ("").
