fa25f43ac5692082dba3f90456c501eb08f1b75c p2p: Remove BIP61 reject messages (MarcoFalke) Pull request description: Reject messages (BIP 61) appear in the following settings: * Parsing of reject messages (in case `-debug=net` is set, off by default). This has only been used for a single `LogPrint` call for several releases now. Such logging is completely meaningless to us and should thus be removed. * The sending of reject messages (in case `-enablebip61` is set, off by default). This can be used to debug a node that is under our control. Instead of hacking this debugging into the p2p protocol, it could be more easily achieved by parsing the debug log. (Use `-printtoconsole` to have it as stream, or read from the `debug.log` file like our python function `assert_debug_log` in the test framework does) Having to maintain all of this logic and code to accommodate debugging, which can be achieved by other means a lot easier, is a burden. It makes review on net processing changes a lot harder, since the reject message logic has to be carried around without introducing any errors or DOS vectors.

Now it is 0 by default for all chains, thus there's no need to call Params(). Also now the default for main is properly documented. Suggestion for release notes: -fallbackfee was 0 (disabled) by default for the main chain, but 20000 by default for the test chains. Now it is 0 by default for all chains. Testnet and regtest users will have to add fallbackfee=20000 to their configuration if they weren't setting it and they want it to keep working like before. Should I propose them to the wiki for the release notes or only after merge?

2019-09-14rpc: fix regression in gettransactionJon Atack
PR 16866 renamed the 'decode' argument in gettransaction to 'verbose' to make it more consistent with other RPC calls like getrawtransaction. However, it seems it inadvertently overloaded the 'details' fields when 'verbose' is passed. The result is that the original 'details' fields are no longer returned, which seems to be a breaking API change. This PR takes the simplest path to restoring the 'details' fields by renaming them from 'details' back to 'decoded', while leaving the 'verbose' argument for API consistency. It also addresses [this comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16185#discussion_r320740413) to mention that the 'decoded' field is identical to decoderawtransaction. Update the RPC help, functional test, and release note.

This adds a new entry to `getpeerinfo` and `getnetworkinfo` which decodes the network services flags. Here is a truncated output of `getpeerinfo`: ``` "services": "000000000000040d", "servicesnames": "NODE_NETWORK | NODE_BLOOM | NODE_WITNESS | NODE_NETWORK_LIMITED", "relaytxes": true, ``` And one of `getnetworkinfo`: ``` "localservices": "0000000000000409", "localservicesnames": "NODE_NETWORK | NODE_WITNESS | NODE_NETWORK_LIMITED", "localrelay": true, ``` Fixes #16780.
