07cd510ffe [refactor] consolidate invalid MempoolAcceptResult processing (glozow)
9353aa4066 [refactor] consolidate valid MempoolAcceptResult processing (glozow)
Pull request description:
Every time we try to `ProcessTransaction` (i.e. submit a tx to mempool), we use the result to update a few net processing data structures. For example, after a failure, the {wtxid, txid, both, neither} (depending on reason) should be cached in `m_recent_rejects` so we don't try to download/validate it again.
There are 2 current places and at least 1 future place where we need to process `MempoolAcceptResult`:
- In the `ProcessMessage` logic after receiving and validating a tx
- In `ProcessOrphanTx` where we retry orphans
- With #28970, after processing a package of transactions, we should do these updates for each tx in the package.
Consolidate this code so it isn't repeated in 2 places and so we can reuse it in a future PR.

Pull request description:
Revives #17167. It allows whitelisting manual connections. Fixes#9923
Since there are some PRs/issues around this topic, I'll list some motivations/comments for whitelisting outbound connections from them:
- Speed-up tx relay/mempool sync for testing purposes (my personal motivation for this) - In #26970, theStack pointed out that we whitelist peers to speed up tx relay for fast mempool synchronization, however, since it applies only for inbound connections and considering the topology `node0 <--- node1 <---- node2 <--- ... <-- nodeN`, if a tx is submitted from any node other than node0, the mempool synchronization can take quite long.
- https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29058#issuecomment-1865155764 - "Before enabling -v2transport by default (which I'd image may happen after https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/24748) we could consider a way to force manual connections to be only-v1 or even only-v2 (disabling reconnect-with-v1). A possibility could be through a net permission flag, if https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27114 makes it in."
- https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17167#issuecomment-1168606032 - "This would allow us to use https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/25355 when making outgoing connections to all nodes, except to whitelisted ones for which we would use our persistent I2P address."
- Force-relay/mempool permissions for a node you intentionally connected to.

73127722a2 refactor: Make FindNextBlocks friendlier (furszy)
Pull request description:
Even when the node believes it has IBD completed, need to avoid
requesting historical blocks from network-limited peers.
Otherwise, the limited peer will disconnect right away.
The simplest scenario could be a node that gets synced, drops
connections, and stays inactive for a while. Then, once it re-connects
(IBD stays completed), the node tries to fetch all the missing blocks
from any peer, getting disconnected by the limited ones.
Note:
Can verify the behavior by cherry-picking the test commit alone on
master. It will fail there.

We preemptively perform a block mutation check before further processing
a block message (similar to early sanity checks on other messsage
types). The main reasons for this change are as follows:
- `CBlock::GetHash()` is a foot-gun without a prior mutation check, as
the hash returned only commits to the header but not to the actual
transactions (`CBlock::vtx`) contained in the block.
- We have observed attacks that abused mutated blocks in the past, which
could have been prevented by simply not processing mutated blocks
(e.g. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27608).
Requesting historical blocks from network limited peers is a
direct disconnection cause.
The node must only request the blocks who know for sure the
limited peer can provide.
ff9039f6ea Remove GetAdjustedTime (dergoegge)

This picks up parts of #25908.
The use of adjusted time is removed from validation code while the warning to users if their clock is out of sync with the rest of the network remains.

Pull request description:
Derived from #28120 discussion.
By relocating the peer desirable services flags into the peer manager, we
allow the connections acceptance process to handle post-IBD potential
stalling scenarios.
The peer manager will be able to dynamically adjust the services flags
based on the node's proximity to the tip (back and forth). Allowing the node
to recover from the following post-IBD scenario:
Suppose the node has successfully synced the chain, but later experienced
dropped connections and remained inactive for a duration longer than the limited
peers threshold (the timeframe within which limited peers can provide blocks). In
such cases, upon reconnecting to the network, the node might only establish
connections with limited peers, filling up all available outbound slots. Resulting
in an inability to synchronize the chain (because limited peers will not provide
blocks older than the `NODE_NETWORK_LIMITED_MIN_BLOCKS` threshold).

Introduces functionality to detect when limited peers connections
are desirable or not. Ensuring that the new connections desirable
services flags stay relevant throughout the software's lifecycle.
(Unlike the previous approach, where once the validation IBD flag
was set, the desirable services flags remained constant forever).
This will let us recover from stalling scenarios where the node had
successfully synced, but subsequently dropped connections and remained
inactive for a duration longer than the limited peers threshold (the
timeframe within which limited peers can provide blocks). Then, upon
reconnection to the network, the node may end up only establishing
connections with limited peers, leading to an inability to synchronize
the chain.
This also fixes a possible limited peers threshold violation during IBD,
when the user configures `-maxtipage` further than the BIP159's limits.
This rule violation could lead to sync delays and, in the worst-case
scenario, trigger the same post-IBD stalling scenario (mentioned above)
but during IBD.
74ebd4d135 doc, test: Test and explain service flag handling (Martin Zumsande)
Pull request description:
Service flags received from the peer-to-peer network are handled differently, depending on how we receive them.
If received directly from an outbound peer the flags belong to, they replace existing flags.
If received via gossip relay (so that anyone could send them), new flags are added, but existing ones but cannot be overwritten.
Document that and add test coverage for it.

No behavior change. Just an intermediate refactoring.
By relocating the peer desirable services flags into the peer
manager, we allow the connections acceptance process to handle
post-IBD potential stalling scenarios.
In the follow-up commit(s), the desirable service flags will be
dynamically adjusted to detect post-IBD stalling scenarios (such
as a +48-hour inactive node that must prefer full node connections
instead of limited peer connections because they cannot provide
historical blocks). Additionally, this encapsulation enable us
to customize the connections decision-making process based on
new user's configurations in the future.
And implement 'ApproximateBestBlockDepth()' to estimate
the distance, in blocks, between the best-known block
and the network chain tip. Utilizing the best-block time
and the chainparams blocks spacing to approximate it.

Pull request description:
Replace `LogPrint*` functions with severity based logging functions:
* `LogInfo(...)`, `LogWarning(...)`, `LogError(...)` for unconditional (uncategorised) logging (replaces `LogPrintf`)
* `LogDebug(CATEGORY, ...)` and `LogTrace(CATEGORY, ...)` for conditional logging (replaces `LogPrint`)
* `LogPrintLevel(CATEGORY, LEVEL, ...)` for when the level isn't known in advance, or a category needs to be added for an info/warning/error log message (mostly unchanged, but rarely needed)
Logs look roughly as they do now with `LogInfo` not having an `[info]` prefix, and `LogDebug` having a `[cat]` prefix, rather than a `[cat:debug]` prefix. This removes `BCLog::Level::None` entirely -- for `LogFlags::NONE` just use `Level::Info`, for any actual category, use `Level::Debug`.
Adds docs to developer-notes about when to use which level.
Adds `-loglevelalways=1` option so that you get `[net:debug]`, `[all:info]`, `[all:warning]` etc, which might be helpful for automated parsing, or just if you like everything to be consistent. Defaults to off to reduce noise in the default config, and to avoid unnecessary changes on upgrades.
Changes the behaviour of `LogPrintLevel(CATEGORY, BCLog::Level::Info, ...)` to be logged unconditionally, rather than only being an additional optional logging level in addition to trace and debug. Does not change the behaviour of `LogPrintLevel(NONE, Debug, ...)` and `LogPrintLevel(NONE, Trace, ...)` being no-ops.
