rebase on D16482 to unbreak CI

revert bumping of pip for now. The corresponding alert (CVE-2023-5752) does not affect us, we don't install anything from a Mercurial VCS URL

There are still issues related to btchip-python==0.1.32 metadata with the wine build

remove debugging print

no need to disable the range_check, the error is caught in main.cpp::ThreadCrawler

add tests

This one should be relatively easy to test (but hopefully without having to add a dependency to the main unit test framework like the source material does)

doc layout

improve comment, set range_check=false when calling ReadCompactSize to prevent the function from throwing if the net message is intentionnaly bad, don't duplicate MAX_HEADERS_RESULTS but include it via net_processing.h.

OK, that looks like something I can use.

Clearing the review queue
For testing, it is best to use arc diff --draft so that the diff does not appear in the review queue for other contributors.

adjust the release note to match D16421 more closely

use MAX_PAYMENTREQUEST_SIZE = 50000
