random_shuffle
is removed in C++17 so I'll look into replacing it with std::shuffle
which is available but takes a slightly different 3rd argument.
Changed to use Shuffle()
from random.h per other uses.

Details
RPC send commands have a new argument
inputs_per_tx
that controls whether the amount specified can be split across multiple transactions. This value ranges from 0 (default) to 32 (an upper bound designed to prevent transactions larger than can be accepted). When set to 0, attempts to fit the send in one transaction as per previous behavior.The sends are interpreted to mean that the recipient will receive the sent amount, but under the hood the transactions are created as if
subtractfeefromamount
was specified. In particular, if the send needs to be split inton > 1
transactions, the outputs of the firstn - 1
are randomly reduced to account for the fee (and the shortfall from the inputs).Coins are selected using a sliding window that prioritizes cleaning up small utxos (dust) over using fewer inputs, and thus transactions built this way will tend toward having more inputs. This is beneficial for ringct staking (keeping larger coins intact and reducing the amount of small utxos). The smallest utxo is always included if possible to prevent the amount of small utxos from increasing with usage.
