Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#20966: banman: save the banlist in a JSON format on disk
bb719a08db173a753984a04534de6f148b87b17a style: remove () from assert in rpc_setban.py (Vasil Dimov) 24b10ebda301548b8ff4b0c73fefc367ad5dc22b doc: fix grammar in doc/files.md (Vasil Dimov) dd4e957dcdfc971a4a971995ff2db9fb787d23c3 test: ensure banlist can be read from disk after restart (Vasil Dimov) d197977ae2076903ed12ab7616a7f93e88be02e1 banman: save the banlist in a JSON format on disk (Vasil Dimov) Pull request description: 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).
