@l0rinc the current end to end tests do communicate locally via the `lo` interface.

@fanquake Honestly, I forgot which test was that. During latest coredev I investigated that briefly with @maflcko or @0xB10C (?) and we observed the non local traffic with `tcpdump(1)`. Now, my point is to enforce this in the CI, even if such test does not exist currently - has been fixed since coredev or my investigation back then was wrong.

I decided to add a release note for now. I think the changes in this PR are small enough that we can hash the changes out wholesale and it is also not a particularly pressing change. Still not wholly convinced, but thinking about it some more I don't think somebody was relying on this behaviour beforehand either.

It shouldn't reproduce. This commit is just taken from the other pulls, so that clang-tidy is happy with them.

Rebased, added comment and expanded commit message to note the GUI improvement.

I think it makes sense to enforce this in CI (and have a tracking issue or pull for that). Otherwise, it is easy to regress, like in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30529#issuecomment-2252854223

However, if there is a violation of this, or a bug, it would be good to add exact steps to reproduce, or an explanation. Claiming that this is broken on "Ubuntu 28.04 LTS" doesn't seem helpful to uncover the bug, if there is one.

I added a commit to make `waitfornewblock` visible in `help`. It was introduced in 2016 by #8680 as a quick fix to deal with CI failures.

At this point is seem mature enough, no longer has weird quirks like requiring GUI users to enable the RPC server, it's probably actually useful and at least [one library uses it anyway](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-bitcoincore-rpc/blob/06a6c156b4d469c60c1abe8afdc002e7e11e5d3b/client/src/client.rs#L1100). So it seems fine to list it.

Looks cleaner.

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31283#issuecomment-2491178957)
Rebased after #31288 and #31122.

This PR is now based on #31325 since that has enough support. Keeping this draft until that's merged (or dropped).

The test changes will probably cause a merge conflict with #31318, but it should be trivial.

I dropped the early return in `waitNext()` because `wait_until` should already take care of that. I also made the while loop use `<=` instead of `<` so this actually works: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31283#discussion_r1843589729 Added a

I would squash the last commit, then you can also drop the `using node::BlockAssembler` declaration entirely by just calling `MineBlock(g_setup->m_node, {})`.

I dropped a few spurious `(...)coinbase(_output)_script_pub_key` renames from the test commit.

And dropped another unneeded `OP_TRUE` from tx_pool.
