net: respect -onlynet= when making outbound connections
Do not make outbound connections to hosts which belong to a network which is restricted by `-onlynet`. This applies to hosts that are automatically chosen to connect to and to anchors. This does not apply to hosts given to `-connect`, `-addnode`, `addnode` RPC, dns seeds, `-seednodes`.

-onlynet=onion Make outgoing connections only to .onion addresses. Incoming
connections are not affected by this option. This option can be
specified multiple times to allow multiple network types, e.g.

In a typical situation, this suffices to run behind a Tor proxy:
