6170ec5d3ac2bc206068b270e5722a7ecd3a8f26 Do not query all DNS seed at once (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
Before this PR, when we don't have enough connections after 11 seconds, we proceed to query all DNS seeds in a fixed order, loading responses from all of them.
Change this to to only query three randomly-selected DNS seed. If 11 seconds later we still don't have enough connections, try again with another one, and so on.
This reduces the amount of information DNS seeds can observe about the requesters by spreading the load over all of them.

utACK 6170ec5d3ac2bc206068b270e5722a7ecd3a8f26 - I think the risk of a single seeder codebase is orthogonal to this PR. Such risks could also be interpreted differently (diversity could also increase the risk based on the threat model).

ACK 6170ec5d3ac2bc206068b270e5722a7ecd3a8f26 - Agree with the reasoning behind the change. Did some testing with and without `-forcednsseed` and/or a `peers.dat` and monitored the DNS activity.

Pull request description:
Transaction relay is optimized for a combination of redundancy/robustness as well as bandwidth minimization -- as a result transaction relay leaks information that adversaries can use to infer the network topology.
Network topology is better kept private for (at least) two reasons:
(a) Knowledge of the network graph can make it easier to find the source IP of a given transaction.
(b) Knowledge of the network graph could be used to split a target node or nodes from the honest network (eg by knowing which peers to attack in order to achieve a network split).
We can eliminate the risks of (b) by separating block relay from transaction relay; inferring network connectivity from the relay of blocks/block headers is much more expensive for an adversary.
After this commit, bitcoind will make 2 additional outbound connections that are only used for block relay. (In the future, we might consider rotating our transaction-relay peers to help limit the effects of (a).)

re-utACK 0ba08020c9791f7caf5986ad6490c16a2b66cd83. Pointed out that stats.fRelayTxes was sometimes uninitialized for blocksonly peers (though its not a big deal and only effects RPC), which has since been fixed here. Otherwise changes are pretty trivial so looks good.

This allows incoming connections from peers which are only banned
due to an automatic misbehavior ban if doing so won't fill inbound.
These peers are preferred for eviction when inbound fills, but may
still be kept if they fall into the protected classes. This
eviction preference lasts the entire life of the connection even
if the ban expires.
If they misbehave again they'll still get disconnected.
The main purpose of banning on misbehavior is to prevent our
connections from being wasted on unhelpful peers such as ones
running incompatible consensus rules. For inbound peers this
can be better accomplished with eviction preferences.
A secondary purpose was to reduce resource waste from repeated
abuse but virtually any attacker can get a nearly unlimited
supply of addresses, so disconnection is about the best we can
do.
These are separate events which need to be carried out by separate subsystems.
This also cleans up some whitespace and tabs in qt to avoid getting flagged by
the linter.
Current behavior is preserved.

48b37db50 make peertimeout a debug argument, remove error message translation (Zain Iqbal Allarakhia)
8042bbfbf p2p: allow p2ptimeout to be configurable, speed up slow test (Zain Iqbal Allarakhia)
Pull request description:
**Summary:**
1. _Primary_: Adds a `debug_only=true` flag for peertimeout, defaults to 60 sec., the current hard-coded setting.
2. _Secondary_: Drastically speeds up `p2p_timeout.py` test.
3. _Secondary_: Tests that the correct code path is being tested by adding log assertions to the test.
**Rationale:**
- P2P timeout was hard-coded: make it explicitly specified and configurable, instead of a magic number.
- Addresses #13518; `p2p_timeout.py` takes 4 sec. to run instead of 61 sec.
- Makes `p2p_timeout.py` more explicit. Previously, we relied on a comment to inform us of the timeout amount being tested. Now it is specified directly in the test via passing in the new arg; `-peertimeout=3`.
- Opens us up to testing more P2P scenarios; oftentimes slow tests are the reason we don't test.
