We comment out a newly-added assert from the Bitcoin
side, because it's unclear how to replicate it
correctly in Elements.

When receiving unwanted headers from a peer, first check whether we have
recent "best known block" state for that peer. If not, accept one batch
of headers to refresh it. Otherwise, we can become stuck in a state where
we need blocks, but we don't know which peers have those blocks available.
This especially happens during startup, when we don't have this information
for any peers until we start processing header messages.
This fixes an issue which causes Elements to download the blockchain headers
multiple times during initial block download.
In particular: each time we receive an INV P2P message with a new block
(about once a minute), we start downloading the headers, again, in parallel
with any existing download(s) in progress.
With this change, after we receive each batch of headers, we check whether
any of the headers in it were new to us. If not (they were all duplicates),
we stop there, and do not ask the peer for another batch. This reduces the
maximum amount of duplication to about 2x, which is not ideal, but a HUGE
improvement.

Pull request description:
Introduce the pimpl pattern for AddrMan to separate the implementation details from the externally used object representation. This reduces compile-time dependencies and conceptually clarifies AddrMan's interface from the implementation specifics.
Since the unit & fuzz tests currently rely on accessing AddrMan internals, this PR introduces addrman_impl.h, which is exclusively imported by addrman.cpp and test files.

Improve readability of code, simplify future scripted diff cleanup PRs, and be
more consistent with naming for GetBoolArg.
This will also be useful for replacing runtime settings type checking
with compile time checking.

The new name describes better what the bool does and also limits the confusion of the three different concepts:
* fBlocksOnly (This bool to skip tx invs)
* -blocksonly (A setting to ignore incoming txs)
* block-relay-only (A connection type in the block-relay-only P2P graph)
The us=... message in the debug log when sending a version message is
always [::]:0, because we no longer send our own address there.
Therefore, this information is entirely redundant. Remove it.
Historically, the VERSION message contains an "addrMe" and an "addrYou". As
these are sent before version negotiation is complete, the protocol version is
INIT_PROTO_VERSION (209), and in that protocol, CAddress is serialized without
nTime.
This is in fact the only situation left where a CAddress is (de)serialized
without nTime. As it's such a simple structure (CService for ip/port + uint64_t
for nServices), just inline that structure in the few places where it occurs,
and remove the logic for dealing with missing nTime from CAddress.

Pull request description:
Incorporates review feedback in #22387.
Edit, could be considered separately: should a release note (or two) be added for 22.0? e.g. the new getpeerinfo fields in `Updated RPCs` and the rate-limiting itself in `P2P and network changes`.

Currently, this call to SetupAddressRelay will never return false because of
the previous guard that returns early if the peer is not an inbound connection.
Rather than implicitly relying on this guarantee, throw an error in the debug
build if it ever changes.

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 builds on the test refactors extracted into #22306 (first 5 commits).
This PR aims to reduce addr blackholes. When we receive an `addr` message that contains 10 or less addresses, we forward them to 1-2 peers. This is the main technique we use for self advertisements, so sending to peers that wouldn't relay would effectively "blackhole" the trickle. Although we cannot prevent this in a malicious case, we can improve it for the normal, honest cases, and reduce the overall likelihood of occurrence. Two known cases where peers would not participate in addr relay are if they have connected to you as a block-relay-only connection, or if they are a light client.
This implementation defers initialization of `m_addr_known` until it is needed, then uses its presence to decide if the peer is participating in addr relay. For outbound (not block-relay-only) peers, we initialize the filter before sending the initial self announcement when processing their `version` message. For inbound peers, we initialize the filter if/when we get an addr related message (`ADDR`, `ADDRV2`, `GETADDR`). We do NOT initialize the filter based on a `SENDADDRV2` message.
To communicate about these changes beyond bitcoin core & to (try to) ensure that no other software would be disrupted, I have:
- Posted to the [mailing list](https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2021-April/018784.html)
- Researched other open source clients to confirm compatibility, opened issues in all the projects & documented in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21528#issuecomment-809906430. Many have confirmed that this change would not be problematic.
- Raised as topic during [bitcoin-core-dev meeting](https://www.erisian.com.au/bitcoin-core-dev/log-2021-03-25.html#l-954)

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.
