This currently does not work on macOs when the pycapnp uses system installed capnproto and the system installed capnproto is installed from homebrew.

Editing it to

```python
imports = ["/opt/homebrew/opt/capnp/include", str(src_dir), str(mp_dir)]
```

I thought of two ways to fix it but was not successful.
1. Whether we can get the path to the include

Should modules be a test parameter initialised in `set_test_params` so that we can later reuse in mining test?

Is their benefit of having context for each test, else we can just have a global context?

Also add a branch for when we have a better template based on increase in transaction fees in the mempool above the fee threshold.

```suggestion
assert_equal(len(block2.vtx), 1)
# Wait for another, get one after increase in fees in the mempool.
waitnext = template2.result.waitNext(ctx, waitoptions)

These commands for unstalling via a venv dont work for me on macos or linux. I'm also not sure about installing via pip, since we need to be sure we are installing the package with capnproto bundled. Instead, I think `pycapnp` should be installed from source (venv or otherwise):

```
git clone https://github.com/capnproto/pycapnp.git
cd pycapnp
pip install . -C force-bundled-libcapnp=True
```

This approach worked on macos and linux for me (inside a venv on both).

AFAICT, this only works when capnproto is bundled inside `pycapnp`.

Thanks for picking this up! I think the docs and multiplatform support still need a bit of work but that can be tackled in a follow-up(s), considering the main benefit I see here is getting a basic functional test in place that can be extended later.

> the include paths used in the python test are a guess. It'd be nice to pass through the location of the capnp installation from the build system to the tests

I took a stab at this, ended up being harder than expected and I don't yet have something that works. But I think this is the correct longterm approach, instead of trying to guess in the functional test itself.

FWIW, this worked for me on macos: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33201#discussion_r2282780835. I'd recommend we have the docs tell users to install `pycapnp` from source, since that should "just work" everywhere due to this line: `cpp_capnp_dir = Path(capnp.__path__[0]).parent`.

Eventually, we can replace this recommendation once we have CMake automatically finding the include directory for capnproto and making the test framework aware.

This should be `build/test/functional/interface_ipc.py`. Otherwise the test wont run.

When you build using depends with the autotools it will work I think?
So both options maybe?

It looks like the `pycapnp` package doesn't currently work with Python 3.13 (https://github.com/capnproto/pycapnp/issues/372).
