Merge #16188: net: Document what happens to getdata of unknown type
dddd9270f85bd2e71fd281a0c6b4053e02fce93c net: Document what happens to getdata of unknonw type (MarcoFalke) Pull request description: Any getdata of unknown type will never be processed and blocks all future messages from a peer. This isn't obviously clear from reading the code, so document it. Top commit has no ACKs. Tree-SHA512: 4f8e43bbe6534242facfcfffae28b7a6aa2d228841fa2146a87d494e69f614b0da23cf7a5f3d4367358a7c1981fe2ec196a21c437ae1653f1c7e0351be22598a
