[net/net processing] check banman pointer before dereferencing

Although we currently don't do this, it should be possible to create a
CConnman or PeerLogicValidation without a Banman instance. Therefore
always check that banman exists before dereferencing the pointer.

Also add comments to the m_banman members of CConnman and
PeerLogicValidation to document that these may be nullptr.
