Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#23065: Allow UTXO locks to be written to wallet DB
d96b000e94d72d041689c5c47e374df2ebc0e011 Make GUI UTXO lock/unlock persistent (Samuel Dobson) 077154fe698f5556ad6e26ef49c9024c2f07ff68 Add release note for lockunspent change (Samuel Dobson) 719ae927dcdb60c0f9902fa79796256035228c4e Update lockunspent tests for lock persistence (Samuel Dobson) f13fc16295c19a156f2974d2d73fba56d52fc161 Allow lockunspent to store the lock in the wallet DB (Samuel Dobson) c52789365e5dbcb25aa5f1775de4d318da79e5a7 Allow locked UTXOs to be store in the wallet database (Samuel Dobson) Pull request description: Addresses and closes #22368 As per that issue (and its predecessor #14907), there seems to be some interest in allowing unspent outputs to be locked persistently. This PR does so by adding a flag to lockunspent to store the change in the wallet database. Defaults to false, so there is no change in default behaviour. Edit: GUI commit changes default behaviour. UTXOs locked/unlocked via the GUI are now persistent.

+Notable changes
+===============
+
+Updated RPCs
+------------
+
+- `lockunspent` now optionally takes a third parameter, `persistent`, which
+causes the lock to be written persistently to the wallet database. This
+allows UTXOs to remain locked even after node restarts or crashes.
+
+GUI changes
+-----------
+
+- UTXOs which are locked via the GUI are now stored persistently in the
+wallet database, so are not lost on node shutdown or crash. \ No newline at end of file
