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.
