This commit adds the CaptureMessage function. This will later be called
when any message is sent or received. The capture directory is fixed,
in a new folder "message_capture" in the datadir. Peers will then have
their own subfolders, named with their IP address and port, replacing
colons with underscores to keep compatibility with Windows. Inside,
received and sent messages will be captured into two binary files,
msgs_recv.dat and msgs_sent.dat.
e.g.
message_capture/203.0.113.7_56072/msgs_recv.dat
message_capture/203.0.113.7_56072/msgs_sent.dat
The format has been designed as to result in a minimal performance
impact. A parsing script is added in a later commit.
-dropmessagestest is a command line option that causes 1 in n received
messages to be dropped. The Bitcoin P2P protocol is stateful and in
general cannot handle messages being dropped. Dropped
version/verack/ping/pong messages will cause the connection to time out
and be torn down. Other dropped messages may also cause the peer to
believe that the peer has stalled and tear down the connection.
It seems difficult to uncover any actual issues with -dropmessagestest,
and any coverage that could be generated would probably be easier to
trigger with fuzz testing.

cd03513dc2 init: Signal-safe instant shutdown (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
Pull request description:
Replace the 200ms polling loop with a faster and more efficient waiting operation. This should speed up short RPC tests.
This change has been tried a few times before, but abandoned every time because solutions used a condition variable which is not safe for use in signals, as they need to be reentrant.
On UNIX-ish OSes, use a safe way: a pipe. When shutdown is requested write a dummy byte to the pipe. Waiting for shutdown is a matter of a blocking read from the pipe.
On Windows, there are no signals so using a condition variable is safe.
This only affects bitcoind. The GUI is unaffected by this change, and keeps polling as before in `BitcoinGUI::detectShutdown()`. It might be possible to listen to a pipe there, too, but I'm not sure, and it's complicated by the GUI-node abstraction.

03bfeee957 interface: remove unused estimateSmartFee method from node (Antoine Poinsot)
Pull request description:
If the `blocksonly` mode is turned on after running with transaction
relay enabled for a while, the fee estimation will serve outdated data
to both the internal wallet and to external applications that might be
feerate-sensitive and make use of `estimatesmartfee` (for example a
Lightning Network node).
This has already caused issues (for example https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16840 (C-lightning), or https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/issues/2562 (LND)) and it seems prudent to fail rather than to give inaccurate values.
This fixes#16840, and closes#16890 which tried to fix the symptoms (RPC) but not the cause as mentioned by sdaftuar :
> If this is a substantial problem, then I would think we should take action to protect our own wallet users as well (rather than hide the results of what our fee estimation would do!).

e3310692d0 refactor: Make CTxMemPool::m_check_ratio a const and a constructor argument (Elle Mouton)
9d4b4b2c2c refactor: Avoid double to int cast for nCheckFrequency (Elle Mouton)
Pull request description:
This PR cleans up the CTxMemPool interface by including the ratio used to determine when a mempool sanity check should run in the constructor of CTxMempool instead of using nCheckFrequency which required a cast from a double to a uint32_t. Since nCheckFrequency (now called m_check_ratio) is set in the constructor and only every read from there after, it can be turned into a const and no longer needs to be guarded by the 'cs' lock.
Since nCheckFrequency/m_check_ratio no longer needs to lock the 'cs' mutux, mutex lock line in the "CTxMempool::check" function can be moved below where the m_check_ratio variable is checked. Since the variable is 0 by default (meaning that "CTxMempool::check" will most likely not run its logic) this saves us from unnecessarily grabbing the lock.

Since m_check_ratio is only set once and since the CTxMemPool object is
no longer a global variable, m_check_ratio can be passed into the
constructor of CTxMemPool. Since it is only read from after
initialization, m_check_ratio can also be made a const and hence no
longer needs to be guarded by the cs mutex.

Pull request description:
This PR adds ability to label incoming Tor connections as different from normal localhost connections.
Closes#8973.
Closes#16693.
Default onion service target ports are:
- 8334 on mainnnet
- 18334 on testnet
- 38334 on signet
- 18445 on regtest
To set the onion service target socket manually the extended `-bind` config option could be used:
```
$ src/bitcoind -help | grep -A 6 -e '-bind'
-bind=<addr>[:<port>][=onion]
Bind to given address and always listen on it (default: 0.0.0.0). Use
[host]:port notation for IPv6. Append =onion to tag any incoming
connections to that address and port as incoming Tor connections
(default: 127.0.0.1:8334=onion, testnet: 127.0.0.1:18334=onion,
signet: 127.0.0.1:38334=onion, regtest: 127.0.0.1:18445=onion)

9b4fa0af40 net: Print error message if -proxy is specified without arguments (instead of continuing without proxy server) (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
Exit with error message if `-proxy` is specified without arguments (instead of continuing without proxy server).
Continuing without a proxy server when the end-user has specified `-proxy` may result in accidental loss of privacy. (The end-user might think he/she is using a proxy when he/she is not.)
Before this patch:
```
$ src/bitcoind -proxy
…

2020-09-23T00:24:33Z InitParameterInteraction: parameter interaction: -proxy set -> setting -upnp=0

…
2020-09-23T00:24:33Z init message: Starting network threads...
```
`bitcoind` is now running *without* a proxy server (`GetProxy(…, …) == false`, `HaveNameProxy() == false`, etc.).
Note that the "-proxy set" log messages above which the end-user might interpret as "good, my traffic is now routed via the proxy".
After this patch:
```

Using the zmq notifications to avoid excessive mempool polling can be difficult
given the current notifications available. It announces all transactions
being added to mempool or included in blocks, but announces no evictions
and gives no indication if the transaction is in the mempool or a block.
Block notifications for zmq are also substandard, in that it only announces
block tips, while all block transactions are still announced.
This commit adds a unified stream which can be used to closely track mempool:
1) getrawmempool to fill out mempool knowledge
2) if txhash is announced, add or remove from set
based on add/remove flag
3) if blockhash is announced, get block txn list,
remove from those transactions local view of mempool
4) if we drop a sequence number, go to (1)
The mempool sequence number starts at the value 1, and
increments each time a transaction enters the mempool,
or is evicted from the mempool for any reason, including
block inclusion. The mempool sequence number is published
via ZMQ for any transaction-related notification.
These features allow for ZMQ/RPC consumer to track mempool
state in a more exacting way, without unnecesarily polling
getrawmempool. See interface_zmq.py::test_mempool_sync for
example usage.

PeerLogicValidation was originally net_processing's implementation to
the validation interface. It has since grown to contain much of
net_processing's logic. Therefore rename it to reflect its
responsibilities.
Suggested in
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10756#pullrequestreview-53892618.
Keep a references to chainparams, rather than calling the global
Params() function every time it's needed. This is fine, since
globalChainParams does not get updated once it's been set, and it's
available at the point of constructing the PeerLogicValidation object.
