faeb6665362e35f573ad715ade0ef2db62d71839 util: Add CHECK_NONFATAL and use it in src/rpc (MarcoFalke) Pull request description: Fixes #17181 Currently, we use `assert` in RPC code to document logic and code assumptions. However, it seems a bit extreme to abort all of Bitcoin Core on an assert failure in one of the RPC threads. I suggest to replace all `assert`s with a macro `CHECK_NONFATAL(condition)` that throws a runtime error when the condition evaluates to `false`. That runtime error will then be returned to the rpc caller and will include instructions to report the error to our issue tracker.
