Also, reducing the height makes it more likely that (third-party) tests are conforming to BIP 66, which is enforced on mainnet for all new blocks.

Since `all.SHA256SUMS` makes more sense (as the file contains all the sha256sums, not just the codesigned ones), `guix-attest` has been changed to output a file of that name. As a quality of life improvement, `guix-verify` can take `SIGNER` and use the signer's manifest as the base to compare against. This makes it easier to compare a single person's attestations with everyone else's and can make it more obvious when one builder is clearly mismatching with everyone else. Lastly `release-process.md` is updated with a note about a gotcha that can cause a mismatch in the codesigned attestation.

They are mutually exclusive. Just one of them should be merged._ Change assumed ports for I2P to 0 (instead of the default 8333) as this is closer to what actually happens underneath with SAM 3.1 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21514#issuecomment-812632520, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21514#issuecomment-816564719). Don't connect to I2P peers with advertised port != 0 (we don't specify a port to our SAM 3.1 proxy and it always connects to port = 0). Note, this change: * Keeps I2P addresses with port != 0 in addrman and relays them to others via P2P gossip. There may be non-bitcoin-core-22.0 peers using SAM 3.2 and for them such addresses may be useful. * Silently refuses to connect to I2P hosts with port != 0. This is ok for automatically chosen peers from addrman. Not so ok for peers provided via `-addnode` or `-connect` - a user who specifies `foo.b32.i2p:1234` (non zero port) may wonder why "nothing is happening".

OpenBSD build guide e65d1d49864d047764eb2b444b2fc806b67e051c doc: recommend `--disable-external-signer` in OpenBSD build guide (Sebastian Falbesoner) Pull request description: Building the master branch with the default build settings (i.e. with external signer support enabled) leads to the following errors on my OpenBSD 6.9 machine: ``` In file included from util/system.cpp:9: In file included from /usr/local/include/boost/process.hpp:25: In file included from /usr/local/include/boost/process/group.hpp:32: /usr/local/include/boost/process/detail/posix/wait_group.hpp:38:17: error: no member named 'waitid' in the global namespace ret = ::waitid(P_PGID, p.grp, &status, WEXITED | WNOHANG); ~~^ /usr/local/include/boost/process/detail/posix/wait_group.hpp:38:24: error: use of undeclared identifier 'P_PGID' ret = ::waitid(P_PGID, p.grp, &status, WEXITED | WNOHANG); ^ /usr/local/include/boost/process/detail/posix/wait_group.hpp:38:48: error: use of undeclared identifier 'WEXITED' ret = ::waitid(P_PGID, p.grp, &status, WEXITED | WNOHANG); ^ /usr/local/include/boost/process/detail/posix/wait_group.hpp:144:17: error: no member named 'waitid' in the global namespace ret = ::waitid(P_PGID, p.grp, &siginfo, WEXITED | WSTOPPED | WNOHANG); ~~^ /usr/local/include/boost/process/detail/posix/wait_group.hpp:144:24: error: use of undeclared identifier 'P_PGID' ret = ::waitid(P_PGID, p.grp, &siginfo, WEXITED | WSTOPPED | WNOHANG); ^ /usr/local/include/boost/process/detail/posix/wait_group.hpp:144:49: error: use of undeclared identifier 'WEXITED' ret = ::waitid(P_PGID, p.grp, &siginfo, WEXITED | WSTOPPED | WNOHANG); ^ /usr/local/include/boost/process/detail/posix/wait_group.hpp:144:59: error: use of undeclared identifier 'WSTOPPED' ret = ::waitid(P_PGID, p.grp, &siginfo, WEXITED | WSTOPPED | WNOHANG); ^ 7 errors generated. ``` This PR recommends passing `--disable-external-signer` in the OpenBSD build guide ([as suggested by laanwj](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/22294#issuecomment-867452411)). The same commit also bumps the OpenBSD version mentioned in the header to 6.9 -- I recently used this document to setup a Bitcoin Core build on 6.9 and the description and all mentioned versions were still valid (before external signer support was enabled by default). Would be nice if another OpenBSD user could confirm the build error.

05f9770c1fa64bd9730cd6e18ec333e0801c00d6 doc: Clarify developer notes about constant naming (Russell Yanofsky) Pull request description: I'm pretty sure developer notes were intended to say constants should be upper case and variables should be lower case, but right now they are ambiguous about whether to write: ```c++ extern const int SYMBOL; ``` or: ```c++ extern const int g_symbol; ``` First convention above is better than the second convention because it tells you without having to look anything up that the value of `SYMBOL` won't change at runtime. Also I haven't seen other c++ projects using the second convention.
