This fixes an issue seen on testnet where the connection loop avoids connecting to nodes with non-default ports. It is however well known that masternodes on testnet are using non-default ports, which leads to many/most masternodes not being considered for outgoing connections.
This PR fixes this by making an exception to this check when the address is known to be from a masternode. It also adds an exception to the required services check just in case we ever add services which are only announced by masternodes.
