deriveaddresses "descriptor" ( range )

Derives one or more addresses corresponding to an output descriptor.
Examples of output descriptors are:
    pkh(<pubkey>)                                     P2PKH outputs for the given pubkey
    wpkh(<pubkey>)                                    Native segwit P2PKH outputs for the given pubkey
    sh(multi(<n>,<pubkey>,<pubkey>,...))              P2SH-multisig outputs for the given threshold and pubkeys
    raw(<hex script>)                                 Outputs whose scriptPubKey equals the specified hex scripts
    tr(<pubkey>,multi_a(<n>,<pubkey>,<pubkey>,...))   P2TR-multisig outputs for the given threshold and pubkeys

In the above, <pubkey> either refers to a fixed public key in hexadecimal notation, or to an xpub/xprv optionally followed by one
or more path elements separated by "/", where "h" represents a hardened child key.
For more information on output descriptors, see the documentation in the doc/descriptors.md file.

Arguments:
1. descriptor    (string, required) The descriptor.
2. range         (numeric or array, optional) If a ranged descriptor is used, this specifies the end or the range (in [begin,end] notation) to derive.

Result:
[           (json array)
  "str",    (string) the derived addresses
  ...
]

Examples:
First three native segwit receive addresses
