Many false positives when using blocklist

[romaincointepas]

Getting many peers being blocked (blockedPeer event) even if blacklist doesn't include those peers IPs.

I did a manual check of the blocklist (trying to find IPs or containing ranges) and a test using PeerBlock while trying to ping those IPs and in both cases IPs were not there or blocked.

Note: I could also find IPs that were blocked (blockedPeer) that appeared in the blocklist and were blocked by Peerblock.

One can reproduce with the following IPs:

83.249.18.137
61.84.203.79
101.50.115.240
58.224.143.38

And this blocklist file:

If this is indeed a bug, it is probably coming from the fisch0920/ip-set module, but as there doesn't seem to be any activity there I thought it would be better to create the issue here.

@romaincointepas Can you produce a smaller test case? That blocklist contains a huge amount of IPs which makes it hard to confirm that the 4 IPs you listed are not included in the list.

That's IBlocklist Corporate List.
