Pull request description:
This removes the non-consensus critical `protocol.h` and `netaddress.h` headers from the kernel headers. With this patch, they are no longer required to include in order to use the libbitcoinkernel library. This also allows for the removal of the `compat.h` header from the kernel headers.
As an added future benefit it also reduces the number of of kernel headers that include the platform specific `bitcoin-config.h`.
For those interested, the currently required kernel headers can be inspected visually with the [sourcetrail](https://github.com/CoatiSoftware/Sourcetrail) tool by looking at the required includes of `bitcoin-chainstate.cpp`.

This is part of the [libbitcoinkernel project](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/27587), namely its stage 1 step 3: Decouple most non-consensus headers from libbitcoinkernel.
