Move DataDirectoryGroupReadable 1 up a few lines to more clearly
communicate that it is required for the filesystem group to read the
DataDirectory.
Per the Tor documentation
https://2019.www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en#DataDirectoryGroupReadable
"If this option is set to 0, don’t allow the filesystem group to read
the DataDirectory. If the option is set to 1, make the DataDirectory
readable by the default GID. (Default: 0)"
and harmonize them as follows
- s/outgoing/automatic outbound/
- s/Incoming/Inbound and manual/ (are not affected by this option.)
- s/only through network/only to network/
- s/this option. This option/this option. It/
- s/network types/networks/
and also pick up a few nits in doc/p2p-bad-ports.md

e53a8505db net: respect -onlynet= when making outbound connections (Vasil Dimov)
Pull request description:
Do not make outbound connections to hosts which belong to a network
which is restricted by `-onlynet`.
This applies to hosts that are automatically chosen to connect to and to
anchors.
This does not apply to hosts given to `-connect`, `-addnode`,
`addnode` RPC, dns seeds, `-seednode`.

86a4a15bdc Highlight DNS request part (Prayank)
Pull request description:
_What?_
Highlight DNS requests part in Proxy section
_Why?_
1. DNS requests are very important while considering privacy
2. Lot of users might skip reading it because of the way it is mixed with everything else in the doc right now
3. I have seen lot of users ignoring DNS requests or unaware of such things while using privacy tools
_How?_
Initially I had tried keeping these lines separate from code block but [Jonatack didn't agree with the changes](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21157#discussion_r618177116). Harding suggested using [bold/italic in `<pre></pre>`](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21157#discussion_r644364143). I have used the suggestions from previous PR and added `---`
This is a part of alternative described in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/22316

This is a follow up to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/19638 that left some deprectaed "hidden service/server" naming occurences.
It also shall make the chapter titles regarding creation of onion services stringent and easy to read and distinguish.
It removes the one and only reference to the testnet (here the testnet onion service port), as it is not explained that it references to the testnet and I do not know why it is mentioned there. It is only confusing. Also, as said, the testnet is not referenced at any other place in this document.
For a couple of years, Tor documentation has made
the term hidden service obsolete, in favor of onion
service.
This PR updates all the references in the code base.
Starting bitcoind with `-onlynet=onion` immediately after adding bitcoind user to debian-tor group will yield the following notice on debug.log:
"tor: Authentication cookie /run/tor/control.authcookie could not be opened (check permissions)"
Elaborate on the need to re-login to ensure debian-tor group has been applied to bitcoind user after:
sudo usermod -a -G debian-tor username
Verification can be done via `groups` command in shell.
The current documentation leads the reader to think `hash-password` is an other option.
This change is less confusing and make it clear how to use this option.

> This new feature is enabled by default if Bitcoin Core is listening, and a connection to Tor can be made. It can be configured with the -listenonion, -torcontrol and -torpassword settings. To show verbose debugging information, pass -debug=tor.
But it is correct to say that the feature is enabled *regardless* of whether a connection to Tor can be made.
I propose to clarify that so that users can eliminate these in their logs (when `listen=1` and no Tor).
And I think it's okay to clarify about the `listen` option, because on several occasions when I read this before I always assumed `listening` meant `server=1` which cost me a lot of time in troubleshooting.

```
### What version of bitcoin-core are you using?
0.12.1
Seems like there are a lot of advertised testnet HS nodes that
don't actually work. Lack of the testnet port on the example
HS config might be one reason.
I've seen users confused multiple times thinking they
should be using -tor to set their tor proxy and then
finding in horror that they were still connecting to
the IPv4 internet.
Even Jeff guesses wrong about what the knob does, so
I think we should rename it. This leaves the old
knob working, we can pull it out completely in a
later release.
