- Add whitelistforcerelay to control forced relaying.
Also renames whitelistalwaysrelay.
Nodes relay all transactions from whitelisted peers, this
gets in the way of some useful reasons for whitelisting
peers-- for example, bypassing bandwidth limitations.
The purpose of this forced relaying is for specialized gateway
applications where a node is being used as a P2P connection
filter and multiplexer, but where you don't want it getting
in the way of (re-)broadcast.
This change makes it configurable with whitelistforcerelay.
- Blacklist -whitelistalwaysrelay; replaced by -whitelistrelay.

Previously didn't make clear that the ContextualCheckBlock* functions
meant the block headers as context - not the UTXO set itself - and that
ConnectBlock() also did UTXO-related validity checks (in the future we
may split that functionality into a separate UTXO-specific contextual
check block function).
Also, reordered to put validity checks first for better readability.
"permit" is currently used to configure transaction filtering, whereas replacement is more to do with the memory pool state than the transaction itself.
This corrects a bug the case of tying group size where the code may
fail to select the group with the newest member. Since newest time
is the final selection criteria, failing to break ties on it
on the step before can undermine the final selection.
Tied netgroups are very common.
With automatic tor HS support in place we should probably not be providing
absolute protection for local peers, since HS inbound could be used to
attack pretty easily. Instead, this counts on the latency metric inside
AttemptToEvictConnection to privilege actually local peers.
