https://github.com/corda/corda/pull/4260 removed the dependency that node had to confidential-identities which means CorDapps using it must now use compile and not cordaCompile. This resolves the failing smoke test.
LedgerTransaction is not meant to be created directly from client code, but it being a data class means we will expose new copy methods as new properties are added. The existing copy methods that we've exposed since V3 are deprecated, and equals and hashCode have been updated to be based just on id.
The primary c'tor has been clearly marked as the class' wire format, and so the internal stuff has been moved out. The references property cannot be made nullable and so DeprecatedConstructorForDeserialization is used instead.

FinalityHandler is insecure in that it is open to receive any transaction from any party.
Any CorDapp targeting platform version 4 or above is required use the new c'tors which take in FlowSession objects to the counterpart flow. This flow must subcall ReceiveFinalityFlow to receive and record the finalised transaction.
Old CorDapps (with target platform version < 4) will continue to work as previously. However if there are no old CorDapps loaded then the node will disable FinalityHandler.

Note about database considerations regarding Cordapp compatibility between OS and ENT.
Remove database configuration "schema" as this is not implemented in OS, it was already mentioned as ignored for SQL server.
By default Cordaps build by corda-gradle-plugins are signed by Corda development key.
In dev mode any key can be used to sign Cordapp JAR .
In production node Corda dev keys were forbidden. This code change allows to opt-out by setting node option cordappSignerKeyFingerprintBlacklist=[] or specify more public keys to blacklist.
The option is used in production only mode.

The cordapp and cordformation plugins (from v4.0.30) are going to have ability to sign JARs (in cordformation signing will be by default), to enable signature constraints to work out of box Network Bootstrapper will not whitelist contracts form signed JARs.
For unsigned JARs the Network Bootstrapper behaviour is unchanged.

This is a split-out change from an enterprise feature, but since we do have: `RPCApi.RPC_TARGET_LEGAL_IDENTITY` header constant even in OS, it would make sense to extend RPC client API to populate this.
* Make the criteria builder functions case insensitive
Add IGNORE_CASE versions of the comparison operator enums
Add exactMatch argument to criteria builder functions where strings can be passed in and set its default value to true
Use JvmOverrides to provide the default true version to java without needing to specify a value manually
If exactMatch is true then the original enums will be used, if false the IGNORE_CASE enums will be used instead
HibernateQueryCriteriaParser.columnPredicateToPredicate now takes into account the IGNORE_CASE versions of the enums

Updated text to proper method
* ENT-2305: Java Instructions to Invoke Hello World CordApp fail
Removed Java instructions
* gradle.build - Added metrics-new-relic dependency
Node.kt - Refactored start(): NodeInfo function extracting the code that was creating the Jolokia JMX reporter configuration and placing it into its own registerJolokiaReporter private function, added a registerJmxReporter function that is now called from start(), the registerJxmReporter function checks the NodeConfiguration's JmxReporterType value for either JOLOKIA or NEW_RELIC to derive whether to execute the registerJolokiaReporter vs. registerNewRelic reporter.
NodeConfiguration - enhanced to encapsulate a JmxReporterType (JOLOKIA is the default config) configuration options for Jolokia or NewRelic reporters.
Enhanced NodeTest.kt, NodeConfigurationImpleTest.kt and added test-working-config-newrelic.conf to ensure that tests still work as expected.

* In AbstractNode check if an initiating flow already has a flow registered to it and throw exception if one has been
In AbstractNode.internalRegisterFlowFactory check if a flow factory already exists for a initiating flow
If a factory does exist, throw an exception
A few tests needed to be fixed due to this change
* Reorder test setup to prevent flows from being registered multiple times

Use check instead of if throws statement
Change names of methods in tests
Improve FlowRegistrationTest to better check if flow has been registered properly
* tidy up FlowFrameworkTests and FlowRegistrationTest
"app", "rpc", "p2p" and "unknown" have security implications (see isUploaderTrusted method) and thus they are not allowed to be used in the uploader field when importing attachments via the public API.
