The fs.* files are already part of the libbitcoin_util library. With the
introduction of the fs_helpers.* it makes sense to move fs.* into the
util/ directory as well.
Init should only concern itself with the initialization order, not the
detailed initialization logic of every module.
Also, inlining logic into a method that is ~800 lines of code, makes it
impossible to unit test on its own.
The class only stores the file path, reading it from a global. Globals
are confusing and make testing harder.
The method reading from a stream does not even use any class members, so
putting it in a class is also confusing.
CSubNet serialization code that was removed in
fa4e6afdae was needed by multiprocess code
to share ban map between gui and node processes.
Rather than adding it back, use suggestion from MarcoFalke
<falke.marco@gmail.com>
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10102#discussion_r690922929 to
use JSON serialization. This requires making BanMapToJson /
BanMapFromJson functions public.
Save the banlist in `banlist.json` instead of `banlist.dat`.
This makes it possible to store Tor v3 entries in the banlist on disk
(and any other addresses that cannot be serialized in addrv1 format).
Only read `banlist.dat` if it exists and `banlist.json` does not
exist (first start after an upgrade).

Resolves https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/19748
Remove the nType and nVersion as parameters to all serialization methods
and functions. There is only one place where it's read and has an impact
(in CAddress), and even there it does not impact any of the recursively
invoked serializers.
Instead, the few places that need nType or nVersion are changed to read
it directly from the stream object, through GetType() and GetVersion()
methods which are added to all stream classes.
