2022-05-31contrib: Use asmap for ASN lookup in makeseedslaanwj
Add an argument `-a` to provide a asmap file to do the IP to ASN lookups. This speeds up the script greatly, and makes the output deterministic. Also removes the dependency on `dns.lookup`. I've annotated the output with ASxxxx comments to provide a way to verify the functionality. For now I've added instructions in README.md to download and use the `demo.map` from the asmap repository. When we have some other mechanism for distributing asmap files we could switch to that. This continues #24824. I've removed all the fallbacks and extra complexity, as everyone will be using the same instructions anyway.

2022-02-22contrib: make-seeds updates for 23.xlaanwj
Documentation: - Use https URL for bitcoin.sipa.be (http sends a redirect, fooling curl). - Add explicit step to add manual seeds. Code: - Change PATTERN_ONION to v3 (effectively means that the no onion hosts are delivered). - Add versions to PATTERN_AGENT filter. - Print specific message on resolve exception.

2018-01-19Use GetDesireableServiceFlags in static seeds, document this.Matt Corallo
44407100f broke inserting entries into addrman from static seeds (as well as dnsseeds which did not support service bits). Static seeds were already being filtered by UA for 0.13.1+ (ie NODE_WITNESS), so simply changing the default service bits to include NODE_WITNESS (and updating docs appropriately) is sufficient. For DNS Seeds, we will later fix by falling back to oneshot if a seed does not support filtering.

Update the steps for updating the hardcoded seed nodes to point to the new filename on @sipa's server, and add command to decompress it. Ref: #10163

gmaxwell: Adds the newest versions, drops everything multiple softforks ago.
2017-02-10Update seeds tooling to Python 3Wladimir J. van der Laan
All the other tooling scripts require Python 3, it makes sense to do so here too. Also document the dependency on python3-dnspython.
