Commit 181a1207 introduced an initialization order bug: CAddrMan's
m_asmap must be set before deserializing peers.dat. Restore that
ordering.

a38137479b net: do not advertise address where nobody is listening (Jadi)
Pull request description:
If the bitcoind starts when listen=0 but listenonion=1, the daemon will
advertise its onion address but nothing is listening for it.
This update will enforce listenonion=0 when the listen is 0.

Now that we manage the lifespan of node.addrman, we can just reset
node.addrman to a newly initialized CAddrMan if parsing peers.dat
fails, eliminating the possibility that Clear() leaves some old state
behind.
Currently addrman consistency checks are a compile time option, and are not
enabled in our CI. It's unlikely anyone is running these consistency checks.
Make them a runtime option instead, where users can enable addrman
consistency checks every n operations (similar to mempool tests). Update
the addrman unit tests to do internal consistency checks every 100
operations (checking on every operations causes the test runtime to
increase by several seconds).
Also assert on a failed addrman consistency check to terminate program
execution.
703b1e612a Close minor startup race between main and scheduler threads (Larry Ruane)
Pull request description:
This is a low-priority bug fix. The scheduler thread runs `CheckForStaleTipAndEvictPeers()` every 45 seconds (EXTRA_PEER_CHECK_INTERVAL). If its first run happens before the active chain is set up (`CChain::SetTip()`), `bitcoind` will assert:
```
(...)
2021-07-28T22:16:49Z init message: Loading block index…
bitcoind: validation.cpp:4968: CChainState& ChainstateManager::ActiveChainstate() const: Assertion `m_active_chainstate' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
```
I ran into this while using the debugger to investigate an unrelated problem. Single-stepping through threads with a debugger can cause the relative thread execution timing to be very different than usual. I don't think any automated tests are needed for this PR. I'll give reproduction steps in the next PR comment.

Pull request description:
This PR adds a DNS seed to the regtest chain params to enable testing the DNS seed querying logic of `CConnman::ThreadDNSAddressSeed` and relevant startup parameters. Adds coverage for the changes in #22013 (and then some).
The main behavioral change to bitcoind is that this PR disallows starting up with conflicting parameters for `-dnsseed` and `-forcednsseed`.
The tests include:
* parameter interactions of different combinations of `-connect`, `-dnsseed` and `-forcednsseed`
* the delay before querying DNS seeds depending on how many addresses are in the addrman
* the behavior of `-forcednsseed`
* skipping DNS querying if we have outbound full relay connections & not block-relay-only connections

Don't schedule class PeerManagerImpl's background tasks from its
constructor, but instead do that from a separate method,
StartScheduledTasks(), that can be called later at the end of startup,
after other things, such as the active chain, are initialzed.
-dnsseed determines whether we run ThreadDNSAddressSeed and potentially query
the DNS seeds for addresses. -forcednsseed tells the node to force querying the
DNS seeds even if we have sufficient addresses or current connections.
This commit disallows starting up with explicitly conflicting parameters.

Pull request description:
Builds on #21009 and makes progress on remaining items in #17862
Removing `RewindBlockIndex()` in #21009 allows the following:
- removal of tests using `segwitheight=-1` in `p2p_segwit.py`.
- move `test_upgrade_after_activation()` out of `p2p_segwit.py` reducing runtime
- in turn, that allows us to drop support for `-segwitheight=-1`, which is only supported for that test.
- that allows us to always set `NODE_WITNESS` in our local services. The only reason we don't do that is to support `-segwitheight=-1`.
- that in turn allows us to drop all of the `GetLocalServices() & NODE_WITNESS` checks inside `net_processing.cpp`, since our local services would always include `NODE_WITNESS`

Since we now have multiple chainstate objects, only one of them is active at any given
time. An active chainstate has a mempool, but there's no point to others having one.

_This is an alternative to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21514, inspired by https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21514#issuecomment-815049933. They are mutually exclusive. Just one of them should be merged._
Change assumed ports for I2P to 0 (instead of the default 8333) as this is closer to what actually happens underneath with SAM 3.1 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21514#issuecomment-812632520, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21514#issuecomment-816564719).
Don't connect to I2P peers with advertised port != 0 (we don't specify a port to our SAM 3.1 proxy and it always connects to port = 0).
Note, this change:
* Keeps I2P addresses with port != 0 in addrman and relays them to others via P2P gossip. There may be non-bitcoin-core-22.0 peers using SAM 3.2 and for them such addresses may be useful.
* Silently refuses to connect to I2P hosts with port != 0. This is ok for automatically chosen peers from addrman. Not so ok for peers provided via `-addnode` or `-connect` - a user who specifies `foo.b32.i2p:1234` (non zero port) may wonder why "nothing is happening".

2feec3ce31 net: don't bind on 0.0.0.0 if binds are restricted to Tor (Vasil Dimov)
Pull request description:
The semantic of `-bind` is to restrict the binding only to some address.
If not specified, then the user does not care and we bind to `0.0.0.0`.
If specified then we should honor the restriction and bind only to the
specified address.
Before this change, if no `-bind` is given then we would bind to
`0.0.0.0:8333` and to `127.0.0.1:8334` (incoming Tor) which is ok -
the user does not care to restrict the binding.
However, if only `-bind=addr:port=onion` is given (without ordinary
`-bind=`) then we would bind to `addr:port` _and_ to `0.0.0.0:8333` in
addition.
Change the above to not do the additional bind: if only
`-bind=addr:port=onion` is given (without ordinary `-bind=`) then bind
to `addr:port` (only) and consider incoming connections to that as Tor
and do not advertise it. I.e. a Tor-only node.

* When accepting an I2P connection, assume the peer has port 0 instead
of the default 8333 (for mainnet). It is not being sent to us, so we
must assume something.
* When deriving our own I2P listen CService use port 0 instead of the
default 8333 (for mainnet). So that we later advertise it to peers
with port 0.
In the I2P protocol SAM 3.1 and older (we use 3.1) ports are not used,
so they are irrelevant. However in SAM 3.2 and newer ports are used and
from the point of view of SAM 3.2, a peer using SAM 3.1 seems to have
specified port=0.

Save the banlist in `banlist.json` instead of `banlist.dat`.
This makes it possible to store Tor v3 entries in the banlist on disk
(and any other addresses that cannot be serialized in addrv1 format).
Only read `banlist.dat` if it exists and `banlist.json` does not
exist (first start after an upgrade).

Overall PR: #20158 (tree-wide: De-globalize ChainstateManager)
The first 2 commits are fixups addressing review for the last bundle: #21391
NEW note:
1. I have opened #21766 which keeps track of potential improvements where the flaws already existed before the de-globalization work, please post on that issue about these improvements, thanks!
Note to reviewers:
1. This bundle may _apparently_ introduce usage of `g_chainman` or `::Chain(state|)Active()` globals, but these are resolved later on in the overall PR. [Commits of overall PR](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/20158/commits)
2. There may be seemingly obvious local references to `ChainstateManager` or other validation objects which are not being used in callers of the current function in question, this is done intentionally to **_keep each commit centered around one function/method_** to ease review and to make the overall change systematic. We don't assume anything about our callers. Rest assured that once we are considering that particular caller in later commits, we will use the obvious local references. [Commits of overall PR](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/20158/commits)
3. When changing a function/method that has many callers (e.g. `LookupBlockIndex` with 55 callers), it is sometimes easier (and less error-prone) to use a scripted-diff. When doing so, there will be 3 commits in sequence so that every commit compiles like so:
1. Add `new_function`, make `old_function` a wrapper of `new_function`, divert all calls to `old_function` to `new_function` **in the local module only**
2. Scripted-diff to divert all calls to `old_function` to `new_function` **in the rest of the codebase**
3. Remove `old_function`

net: Remove -feefilter option, as it is debug only and isn't used in any tests. Checking this option for every peer on every iteration of the message handler is unnecessary, as described in #21545.
refactor: Move feefilter logic out into a separate `MaybeSendFeefilter(...)` function to improve readability of the already long `SendMessages(...)`. fixes #21545
The configuration option `-feefilter` has been added in 9e072a6e66: _"Implement "feefilter" P2P message"_
According to the [BIP133](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0133.mediawiki), turning the fee filter off was ment for:
> [...] a node [...] using prioritisetransaction to accept transactions whose actual fee rates might fall below the node's mempool min fee [in order to] disable the fee filter to make sure it is exposed to all possible txid's
`-feefilter` was subsequently set as debug only in #8150, with the motivation that the help message was too difficult to translate.

d66f283ac0 scripted-diff: Replace three dots with ellipsis in the UI strings (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
This PR is split from #21463.
The change was suggested on [Transifex.com](https://www.transifex.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/), and it does not touch `LogPrint` and `LogPrintf` calls.
The only comment on #21463 [was](9030e4b5a6 (r597220100)):
> Mind that these messages also end up in the log. In principle the log is already UTF-8 (as are all strings and text in bitcoind). But, just noting, that it might make browsing the log a less pleasant experience on systems with misconfigured locale like some BSDs by default.

b4fcbcfb49 doc: update -maxconnections config option help (Jon Atack)
79685a8992 doc: update -addnode config option help (Jon Atack)
2896c6c4cc doc: update addnode rpc help (Jon Atack)
Pull request description:
Since #9319 proposed by Gregory Maxwell and released in v0.14, peers manually added through the `-addnode` config option or using the `addnode` RPC have their own separate limit of 8 connections that does not compete with other inbound or outbound connection usage and is not subject to the limitation imposed by the `-maxconnections` option.
This PR updates the `-addnode` and `-maxconnections` config options and the `addnode` RPC help docs with this information.
`-addnode` config option help
```
$ bitcoind -h | grep -A5 addnode=
-addnode=<ip>
Add a node to connect to and attempt to keep the connection open (see
the addnode RPC help for more info). This option can be specified
multiple times to add multiple nodes; connections are limited to
8 at a time and are counted separately from the -maxconnections
limit.
$ bitcoind -h | grep -A3 maxconnections=
-maxconnections=<n>
Maintain at most <n> connections to peers (default: 125). This limit
does not apply to connections manually added via -addnode or the
addnode RPC, which have a separate limit of 8.
```
`addnode` rpc help
```
$ bitcoin-cli help addnode
addnode "node" "command"
Attempts to add or remove a node from the addnode list.
Or try a connection to a node once.
Nodes added using addnode (or -connect) are protected from DoS disconnection and are not required to be
full nodes/support SegWit as other outbound peers are (though such peers will not be synced from).
Addnode connections are limited to 8 at a time and are counted separately from the -maxconnections limit.

Pull request description:
This is part of the coinstats index project tracked in #18000
While the review of the new UTXO set hash algorithm (MuHash) takes longer recently #19328 was merged which added the possibility to run `gettxoutsetinfo` with a specific hash type. As the first type it added `hash_type=none` which skips the hashing of the UTXO set altogether. This alone did not make `gettxoutsetinfo` much faster but it allows the use of an index for the remaining coin statistics even before a new hashing algorithm has been added. Credit to Sjors for the idea to take this intermediate step.
Features summary:
- Users can start their node with the option `-coinstatsindex` which syncs the index in the background
- After the index is synced the user can use `gettxoutsetinfo` with `hash_type=none` or `hash_type=muhash` and will get the response instantly out of the index
- The user can specify a height or block hash when calling `gettxoutsetinfo` to see coin statistics at a specific block height

~~Pretty cut and dry; parameterizes `CVerifyDB` methods so that we can run the verify procedure on multiple chainstates.~~
Two minor tweaks to ensure that `VerifyDB` can be run on multiple chainstates and a corresponding rename.
