- 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.

… based on time.


8e09f91 Decide eviction group ties based on time. (Gregory Maxwell)
46dbcd4 Do not absolutely protect local peers from eviction. (Gregory Maxwell)

Basic forward-compatibility with more flexible parameters like fss

"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.

42b521d Update release-notes.md (฿tcDrak)

- fix parsing of BIND_NOW with older readelf
- add _IO_stdin_used to ignored exports

For details see: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=634261#109

- add check-symbols and check-security make targets

These are not added to the default checks because some of them depend on
release-build configs.

- always link librt for glibc back-compat builds

glibc absorbed clock_gettime in 2.17. librt (its previous location) is safe to
link in anyway for back-compat.

Fixes #7420

- add security/symbol checks to gitian

Update and reword BIP 125 section

Mention changes to banlist (clearbanned/setban)

Pruning nodes can relay

Jonas Schnelli recommended this to account for growth of utxo set, debug
log, etc.

Peter Todd says it does not matter currently.
