Some trivial maintenance to avoid having to do it again after the 0.17 branch off.
(The scripts to do this are in `./contrib/`)

62e7642 Fall back to oneshot for DNS Seeds which don't support filtering. (Matt Corallo)

fb6f6b1 bluematt's testnet-seed now supports x9 (and is just a static list) (Matt Corallo)
Pull request description:
4440710 broke inserting entries into addrman from dnsseeds which
did not support service bits, as well as static seeds. 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, not
supporting NODE_WITNESS is no longer useful, so instead use
non-filtering seeds as oneshot hosts irrespective of named proxy.
I've set my testnet-seed to also support x9, though because it is simply a static host, it may be useful to leave the support off so that it is used as a oneshot to get addresses from a live node instead. I'm fine with either.

This allows us to not have to update the chainparams whenever a
DNS Seed changes its filtering support, as well fixes a bug
introduced in 44407100f where returned nodes will never be
attempted.
After discussion in #7164 I think this is better.
Max tip age was introduced in #5987 to make it possible to run
testnet-in-a-box. But associating this behavior with the testnet chain
is wrong conceptually, as it is not needed in normal usage.
Should aim to make testnet test the software as-is.
Replace it with a (debug) option `-maxtipage`, which can be
specified only in the specific case.
I've never liked the chain-specific exception to having to set a
password. It gives issues with #6388 which makes it valid to
set no password in every case (as it enables random cookie authentication).
This pull removes the flag, so that all chains are regarded the same.
It also removes the username==password test, which doesn't provide any
substantial extra security.
No longer relevant after #5957. This hack existed because of another
hack where the numthreads parameter, on regtest, doubled as how many
blocks to generate.
