Merge #15163: Correct units for "-dbcache" and "-prune"
6f6514a08090b37b5e8c086015ee4881813ef867 Correct units for "-dbcache" and "-prune" (Hennadii Stepanov) Pull request description: Actually, all `dbcache`-related values in the code are measured in MiB (not in megabytes, MB) or in bytes (e.g., `nTotalCache`). See: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/txdb.h https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/ba8c8b22272ad40fe2de465d7e745532bab48d3b/src/init.cpp#L1405-L1424 Also, "-prune" is fixed: 1. The GUI values in GB are translated to the node values in MiB correctly. 2. The maximum of the "prune" `QSpinBox` is not limited by default value of 99 (GB). Fix: #15106 Tree-SHA512: 151ec43b31b1074db8b345fedb1dcc10bde225899a5296bfc183f57e1553d13ac27db8db100226646769ad03c9fcab29d88763065a471757c6c41ac51108459d
