Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#13875: [doc] nChainTx needs to become a 64-bit earlier due to SegWit
ef72e9bd4124645fe2d00521a71c1c298d760225 doc: nChainTx needs to become a 64-bit earlier due to SegWit (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  As of block 597,379 txcount is 460,596,047 (see `chainparams.cpp`), while `uint32` can handle up to 4,294,967,296.

  Pre segwit the [minimum transaction size](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Maximum_transaction_rate) was 166 bytes, so the worst case number of transactions per block was ~6000. As the original source comment for `unsigned int  nChainTx` says, that should last until the year 2030.

  With SegWit the smallest possible transaction is 60 bytes (potentially increased to 65 with a future soft fork, see #15482), without a witness:

  ```
  4 bytes version
      1 byte input count
          36 bytes outpoint
          1 byte scriptSigLen (0x00)
          0 bytes scriptSig
          4 bytes sequence
      1 byte output count
          8 bytes value
          1 byte scriptPubKeyLen
          1 byte scriptPubKey (OP_TRUE)
      4 bytes locktime
  ```

  That puts the maximum number of transactions per block at 16,666 so we might have to deal with this as early as a block 827,450 in early 2024.

  Given that it's a memory-only thing and we want to allow users many years to upgrade, I would suggest fixing this in v0.20 and back-porting it.
