Merge #18122: rpc: update validateaddress RPCExamples to bech32
7f1475c7119e8c72bce39a63386a6ca859066b80 rpc: update validateaddress RPCExamples to bech32 (Sebastian Falbesoner) Pull request description: Another small step to get rid of legacy addresses in the RPC help texts and by that encourage the use of bech32 addresses by default. The (invalid) address is the same as in the `getaddressinfo` RPC (see 2ee0cb3330ccf70f0540cb42370796e32eff1569, kudos to jonatack!), I don't think it adds any value to have a different example address per RPC.

new RPC is replacing a deprecated RPC, to avoid both RPCs confusingly
