752e6ad533 Protect localhost and block-relay-only peers from eviction (Suhas Daftuar)
Pull request description:
Onion peers are disadvantaged under our eviction criteria, so prevent eventual
eviction of them in the presence of contention for inbound slots by reserving
some slots for localhost peers (sorted by longest uptime).
Block-relay-only connections exist as a protection against eclipse attacks, by
creating a path for block propagation that may be unknown to adversaries.
Protect against inbound peer connection slot attacks from disconnecting such
peers by attempting to protect up to 8 peers that are not relaying transactions
but have provided us with blocks.
Thanks to gmaxwell for suggesting these strategies.

We previously identified if we relay addresses to the connection by checking
for the existence of the m_addr_known data structure. With this commit, we
answer this question based on the connection type.

37a480e0cd [net] Add addpeeraddress RPC method (John Newbery)
ae8051bbd8 [test] Test that getnodeaddresses() can return all known addresses (John Newbery)
f26502e9fc [addrman] Specify max addresses and pct when calling GetAddresses() (John Newbery)
Pull request description:
Currently addrman only allows a maximum of 1000 records or 23% of all records to be returned in a call to `GetAddr()`. Relax this limit and have the client specify the max records they want. For p2p, behaviour is unchanged (but the rate limiting is set inside net_processing, where it belongs). For RPC, `getnodeaddresses` can now return the complete addrman, which is helpful for testing and monitoring.
Also add a test-only RPC `addpeeraddress`, which adds an IP address:port to addrman. This is helpful for testing (eg #18991).

CAddrMan.GetAddr() would previously limit the number and percentage of
addresses returned (to ADDRMAN_GETADDR_MAX (1000) and
ADDRMAN_GETADDR_MAX_PCT (23) respectively). Instead, make it the callers
responsibility to specify the maximum addresses and percentage they want
returned.
For net_processing, the maximums are MAX_ADDR_TO_SEND (1000) and
MAX_PCT_ADDR_TO_SEND (23). For rpc/net, the maximum is specified by the
client.

Pull request description:
**This is part 1 of #19315, which enables the ability to test `outbound` and `block-relay-only` connections from the functional tests.** Please see that PR for more information of overall functionality.
**This PR simplifies how we manage different connection types.** It introduces an enum with the various types of connections so we can explicitly define the connection type. The existing system relies on a series of independent flags, then has asserts scattered around to ensure that conflicting flags are not enabled at the same time. I find this approach to be both brittle and confusing. While making these changes, I found a small bug due to the silent assumptions.
This PR also proposes a rename from `OneShot` to `AddrFetch`. I find the name `OneShot` to be very confusing, especially when we also have `onetry` manual connections. Everyone I've talked to offline has agreed that the name is confusing, so I propose a potential alternative. I think this is a good opportunity for a rename since I'm creating an enum to explicitly define the connection types.
(some context for the unfamiliar: `oneshot` or `addrfetch` connections are short-lived connections created on startup. They connect to the seed peers, send a `getaddr` to solicit addresses, then close the connection.)
Overview of this PR:
* rename `oneshot` to `addrfetch`
* introduce `ConnectionType` enum
* one by one, add different connection types to the enum
* expose the `conn_type` on CNode, and use this to reduce reliance on flags (& asserts)
* fix the bug in counting different type of connections
* some additional cleanup to simplify logic and make expectations explicit/inclusive rather than implicit/exclusive.

Extract logic that check multiple connection types into interface functions &
structure as switch statements. This makes it very clear what touch points are
for accessing `m_conn_type` & using the switch statements enables the compiler
to warn if a new connection type is introduced but not handled for these cases.
Make the connection counts explicit and extract into interface functions around
m_conn_type. Using explicit counting and switch statements where possible
should help prevent counting bugs in the future.
The desired logic is for us to only open feeler connections after we have hit
the max count for outbound full relay connections. A short lived AddrFetch
connection (previously called oneshot) could cause ThreadOpenConnections to
miscount and mistakenly open a feeler instead of full relay.

Although we currently don't do this, it should be possible to create a
CConnman or PeerLogicValidation without a Banman instance. Therefore
always check that banman exists before dereferencing the pointer.
Also add comments to the m_banman members of CConnman and
PeerLogicValidation to document that these may be nullptr.

fa0540cd46 net: Extract download permission from noban (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
It should be possible to grant nodes in a local network (e.g. home, university, enterprise, ...) permission to download blocks even after the maxuploadtarget is hit.
Currently this is only possible by setting the `noban` permission, which has some adverse effects, especially if the peers can't be fully trusted.
Fix this by extracting a `download` permission from `noban`.

This patch improves performance and resource usage around IP
addresses that are banned for misbehavior. They're already not
actually banned, as connections from them are still allowed,
but they are preferred for eviction if the inbound connection
slots are full.
Stop treating these like manually banned IP ranges, and instead
just keep them in a rolling Bloom filter of misbehaving nodes,
which isn't persisted to disk or exposed through the ban
framework. The effect remains the same: preferred for eviction,
avoided for outgoing connections, and not relayed to other peers.
Also change the name of this mechanism to better reflect reality;
they're not banned, just discouraged.
Contains release notes and several interface improvements by
John Newbery.
The TRY_LOCK(cs_inventory) in DisconnectNodes() is taken after the CNode
object has been removed from vNodes and when the CNode's nRefCount is
zero.
The only other places that cs_inventory can be taken are:
- In ProcessMessages() or SendMessages(), when the CNode's nRefCount
must be >0 (see ThreadMessageHandler(), where the refcount is
incremented before calling ProcessMessages() and SendMessages()).
- In a ForEachNode() lambda in PeerLogicValidation::UpdatedBlockTip().
ForEachNode() locks cs_vNodes and calls the function on the CNode
objects in vNodes.
Therefore, cs_inventory is never locked by another thread when the
TRY_LOCK(cs_inventory) is reached in DisconnectNodes(). Since the
only purpose of this TRY_LOCK is to ensure that the lock is not
taken by another thread, this always succeeds. Remove the check.
