Nicholas Dudfield c92c0656ec feat(rng): tier 3 consensus-bound fallback entropy
Replace the zero-entropy fallback with a deterministic consensus-bound
digest so every RNG-enabled ledger carries usable entropy:

- sha512Half(HashPrefix::entropyFallback, prevLedgerHash, baseTxSetHash,
  seq) — all inputs are already consensus-agreed at injection time, so
  no new agreement machinery is needed and the digest is identical on
  every node building the same ledger
- new sfEntropyTier (UINT8) on the ttCONSENSUS_ENTROPY pseudo-tx and
  ConsensusEntropy ledger entry: EntropyCount says how many validators
  contributed, EntropyTier says which gate the result passed
  (validator_quorum vs consensus_fallback; participant_aligned reserved)
- the fallback digest derives from the BASE (pre-injection) tx set hash
  to avoid circularity; entropy pseudo-tx dedup is now type-based since
  an explicit-final synthetic set can carry a pseudo-tx whose txID
  implicit nodes cannot re-derive
- unparseable-entropy-set residual now falls back instead of skipping
  injection, so a fresh ConsensusEntropy entry exists every ledger
- CSF Peer mirrors the fallback analog; sims assert deterministic
  non-zero fallback digests across same-LCL peers
- testnet scenarios updated: degraded windows expect labeled fallback
  entropy, never validator-tier

The fallback tier is user-influenceable via tx submission (quiet-ledger
grinding) and is labeled accordingly — hook-facing gating lands with the
min_tier/min_count API change.

protocol

Classes and functions for handling data and values associated with the XRP Ledger protocol.

Serialized Objects

Objects transmitted over the network must be serialized into a canonical format. The prefix "ST" refers to classes that deal with the serialized format.

The term "Tx" or "tx" is an abbreviation for "Transaction", a commonly occurring object type.

Optional Fields

Our serialized fields have some "type magic" to make optional fields easier to read:

  • The operation x[sfFoo] means "return the value of 'Foo' if it exists, or the default value if it doesn't."
  • The operation x[~sfFoo] means "return the value of 'Foo' if it exists, or nothing if it doesn't." This usage of the tilde/bitwise NOT operator is not standard outside of the rippled codebase.
    • As a consequence of this, x[~sfFoo] = y[~sfFoo] assigns the value of Foo from y to x, including omitting Foo from x if it doesn't exist in y.

Typically, for things that are guaranteed to exist, you use x[sfFoo] and avoid having to deal with a container that may or may not hold a value. For things not guaranteed to exist, you use x[~sfFoo] because you want such a container. It avoids having to look something up twice, once just to see if it exists and a second time to get/set its value. (Real example)

The source of this "type magic" is in SField.h.
