Merge bitcoin#21035: Remove pointer cast in CRPCTable::dumpArgMap
9048c58 Remove pointer cast in CRPCTable::dumpArgMap (Russell Yanofsky)
14f3d9b refactor: Add RPC server ExecuteCommands function (Russell Yanofsky)
6158a6d refactor: Replace JSONRPCRequest fHelp field with mode field (Russell Yanofsky)
Pull request description:
This change is needed to fix the `rpc_help.py` test failing in bitcoin#10102: https://cirrus-ci.com/task/5469433013469184?command=ci#L2275
The [`CRPCTable::dumpArgMap`](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/16b784d953365bb2d7ae65acd2b20a79ef8ba7b6/src/rpc/server.cpp#L492) method currently works by casting RPC `unique_id` integer field to a function pointer, and then calling it. The `unique_id` field wasn't supposed to be used this way (it's meant to be used to detect RPC aliases) and as a result, this code segfaults in the `rpc_help.py` test in multiprocess PR bitcoin#10102 because wallet RPC functions aren't directly accessible from the node process.
Fix this by adding a new `GET_ARGS` RPC request mode to retrieve argument information similar to the way the `GET_HELP` mode retrieves help information.
