refactor: rpc: Pass CBlockIndex by reference instead of pointer #29021
Conversation
This makes it harder to pass nullptr and cause issues such as bitcoin@dde7ac5
All functions assume that the pointer is never null, so pass by reference, to avoid accidental segfaults at runtime, or at least make them more obvious. Also, remove unused c-style casts in touched lines. Also, add CHECK_NONFATAL checks, to turn segfault crashes into an recoverable runtime error with debug information.
