Merge #16171: Remove -mempoolreplacement to prevent needless block prop slowness.

8053e5cdad Remove -mempoolreplacement to prevent needless block prop slowness. (Matt Corallo)

Pull request description:

  At this point there is no reasonable excuse to disable opt-in RBF,
  and, unlike when this option was added, there are now significant
  issues created when disabling it (in the form of compact block
  reconstruction failures). Further, it breaks a lot of modern wallet
  behavior.

  This removes an option that is:

  * (a) only useful when a large portion of (other) miners enforce it as well
  * (b) is detrimental to everyone (income for miners, RBF notifications for others) who uses it individually otherwise
  * (c) is effectively unused
  * (d) is often confused with disabling RBF (rather than just remaining stubbornly unaware of it while the rest of the network lets it through)
