Ava Chow 8ace71c737 seeds: Remove manual onion and i2p seeds
The seeders now produce onion and i2p seeds, so there is no need to keep these
in the manual list.

Although should also be produced, there are not enough
good ones detected by the seeder, so we keep the manual seeds for them.

Seeds

Utility to generate the seeds.txt list that is compiled into the client (see src/chainparamsseeds.h and other utilities in contrib/seeds).

Be sure to update PATTERN_AGENT in makeseeds.py to include the current version, and remove old versions as necessary (at a minimum when SeedsServiceFlags() changes its default return value, as those are the services which seeds are added to addrman with).

The seeds compiled into the release are created from sipa's and achow101's DNS seed and AS map data. Run the following commands from the /contrib/seeds directory:

curl https://bitcoin.sipa.be/seeds.txt.gz | gzip -dc > seeds_main.txt
curl https://mainnet.achownodes.xyz/seeds.txt.gz | gzip -dc >> seeds_main.txt
curl https://testnet.achownodes.xyz/seeds.txt.gz | gzip -dc > seeds_test.txt
curl https://bitcoin.sipa.be/asmap-filled.dat > asmap-filled.dat
python3 makeseeds.py -a asmap-filled.dat -s seeds_main.txt > nodes_main.txt
cat nodes_main_manual.txt >> nodes_main.txt
python3 makeseeds.py -a asmap-filled.dat -s seeds_test.txt > nodes_test.txt
