3eac2d57b1ff563bc9cfe123f6ded2764cc50da0 docs: add "sections" info to example bitcoin.conf (Alistair Mann)
Pull request description:
Rebased / commit message fixed version of #15387.
This had ACKs, but just needed the commit message fixed up.
> Most bitcoin.conf options apply to all three networks,
however some apply only to mainnet unless specified in a section.
As stands, conf file has no indication that sections are now in use
or are in some circumstances mandatory (eg, changing rpcport for testnet.)
> Proposed change notifies the reader early which options are affected,
specifically adds those options affected but not already in the example,
adds brief explanation as to what's going on and provides a skeleton template for the sections themselves.

fa4da3c058 [doc] conf: Remove deprecated options from docs, Other cleanup (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Some dumb fixes, like removing the mention that free transactions are still a thing or that rpcuser/pass should be used (as opposed to rpcauth or rpc cookie).
Combined with other fixes because I don't want to create 3 pull requests:
* conf: Remove deprecated options from docs
* Remove only mention of MIT/X11
* Link to developer notes in README.md

3121d76 doc: Update release notes for share/rpcauth/rpcauth.py rename (Henrik Jonsson)
3fdb297 Rename rpcuser.py to rpcauth.py (Henrik Jonsson)
Pull request description:
This script creates `rpcauth` entries for bitcoin.conf, not the deprecated `rpcuser` entry, so this changes the name of the script to match.
As discussed in #11830.

c0651cc Update bitcoin.conf with example for pruning (Kyle Honeycutt)

The two timeouts for the server and client, are essentially different:
- In the case of the server it should be a lower value to avoid clients
clogging up connection slots
- In the case of the client it should be a high value to accomedate slow
responses from the server, for example for slow queries or when the
lock is contended
Split the options into `-rpcservertimeout` and `-rpcclienttimeout` with
respective defaults of 30 and 900.
