Proposed changes

Add a local-only RPC API classification and use it to keep debug_setHead available over in-process RPC and IPC while hiding it from HTTP and WebSocket transports.

This also updates the admin RPC startup path and adds regression coverage for console visibility, transport exposure, and local-only API leakage.

Pull request overview

Introduces a “local-only” RPC API classification to keep debug_setHead available over IPC and in-process RPC while preventing exposure over HTTP/WebSocket, and adds regression tests to ensure transport filtering and console visibility behave as intended.

Changes:

  • Add rpc.API.Local and split node RPC API registration into “open” (HTTP/WS) vs “local” (IPC/in-proc) sets.
  • Mark the internal/ethapi private debug API as local-only and update admin RPC startup paths to use the open set.
  • Add tests covering local-only API leakage (node/admin + ethapi) and console hiding of debug.setHead when unavailable.

File Description
rpc/types.go Adds API.Local flag to classify APIs as local-transport only.
node/node.go Splits API exposure by transport; registers local APIs for IPC/in-proc and open APIs for HTTP/WS.
node/api.go Ensures admin_startRPC / admin_startWS only enable open APIs.
node/api_test.go Adds regression test ensuring local-only APIs remain hidden from HTTP even when started via admin APIs.
internal/ethapi/backend.go Marks private debug API as local-only to prevent debug_setHead exposure over HTTP/WS.
internal/ethapi/api_local_test.go Adds transport-exposure test for debug_setHead vs other debug methods.
console/console.go Hides debug.setHead in the JS console when the RPC method is not available.
console/console_test.go Adds coverage for console behavior when debug_setHead exists vs does not exist on the RPC backend.
