rABCde6232f1fc45: [Cashtab] Do not try to parse outputscript of coinbase txs
Summary

Patch bug in Cashtab tx history parsing causing an error to be thrown in wallets with coinbase txs

Note: there is a lot more we can do for these txs, i.e. rendering them as such. This diff is minimal as the issue currently causes Cashtab wallets with any coinbase tx in the last 10 txs to be unusable.

Test Plan

npm test

this fixes the bug but is not the right implementation

If you have a coinbase tx, dont iterate through inputs at all

we don't get to this loop anymore with coinbase txs. It already has error handling so is robust against thisInput.outputScript being undefined.

568 ↗(On Diff #43167)

we have no error handling here for the case of thisInput.outputScript being undefined and causing thisInput.outputScript.includes(thisWalletHash160) to fail.

Add gated type checking to prevent cashtab crashing in the event of somehow getting here (should never happen but still good practice).

There is no test for the change.

Regarding the implementation, the problem is that the function does too many things. You should split it into logical pieces so you can bail early for coinbase txs without adding another nesting level that makes the code harder to follow.

add test for parsing coinbase tx

the problem is that the function does too many things. You should split it into logical pieces so you can bail early for coinbase txs without adding another nesting level that makes the code harder to follow.

similar to the tx functions, there is a lot of technical debt in parseChronikTx and it should be rewritten separately from this patch (which is needed to fix a critical issue for wallets with staking rewards).

Yes the comment is not for requesting this diff to fix it all
