re. this comment https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30195#discussion_r1630237777 and needing to use the full path again, I think it is that `rename(...)` returns a new `Path` instance, which is then the 'correct' one to use going forwards for further changes you want to happen on-disk (alas Python has no 'use of moved value' concept like Rust et al. that would've complained at you trying to do this).

I think the way to think of this is that a `Path` is just a *path*, not a file-handle, s

(Could even `blk_dat_moved.rename(blk_dat.name)` to avoid repeating the literal `"blk00000.dat"` but meh)

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30242)
This PR:

1. Removes no longer needed workaround for GHA Windows images.

GHA Windows images previously had multiple VC Build Tools installed, which required specifying the `VCPKG_PLATFORM_TOOLSET_VERSION` explicitly to avoid linker errors. This issue has been resolved as per
https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/9701.

2. Switches all references to temporary files to relative ones for consistency and readability.

I'm now setting `uint256 tip{miner.getTipHash()};` at the top. For long polls it's updated after the wait. See d1be135e568605539fa3932da6e7c5032816825b.

Renamed to `Mining`

I replaced `getTip()` with `getTipHash()`. `Sv2TemplateProvider` doesn't need it, so for now I use it in a few places in `rpc/mining.cpp`, but then fall back to `chainman.m_blockman.LookupBlockIndex(miner.getTipHash())` where we need more info.

A future refactor could move more of `getblocktemplate` implementation details out of the RPC.

Thanks, replaced it with `get()`.

@ryanofsky thanks for the review! I rebased and changed a few things to address comments, see inline.

Also added `IsInitialBlockDownload`, which was the last thing `Sv2TemplateProvider` still needed `ChainstateManager& m_chainman;` for.

I'll cherry-pick this into #29432 to see if we need anything more.

Introduce a `Mining` interface for the `getblocktemplate` and `generateblock` RPC to use now, and for Stratum v2 to use later.

Suggested here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29346#issuecomment-2108528652

The selection of methods added to the interface is mostly based on what the Template Provider in #29432 uses. It could be expanded further so that `rpc/mining.cpp` no longer needs `EnsureMemPool` and `EnsureChainman`.

This PR should be a pure refactor.

📝 m3dwards opened a pull request: "ci: parse TEST_RUNNER_EXTRA into an array"
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30244)
While working on CI I wanted to disable some functional tests so I used the `TEST_RUNNER_EXTRA` var. The problem I had was tests that have flags such as `rpc_bind.py --ipv6` must be passed in quotes otherwise the `--ipv6` portion will be considered an argument to `test_runner.py` rather than a test name.

This change allows proper parsing of quotes and complex values such as:

```shell
TEST_RUNNER_EXTRA='--exclude "rpc_bind.py --ipv6, feature_proxy.py"'
```
