nMaxInbound might very well be 0 or -1, if the user prefers to keep
a small number of maxconnections.

Note: nMaxInbound of -1 means that the user set maxconnections
to 8 or less, but we still want to keep an additional slot for
the feeler connection.

99f5cf1 release-notes: Update from blog draft (Luke Dashjr)

Minor version, not major version.

(Eric participated in Segwit work but has no direct commits, so should
be mentioned)

We normally prefer to connect to peers offering the relevant services.

If we're not connected to enough peers with relevant services, we
 probably don't know about them and could use dnsseed's help.

Only allow skipping relevant services until there are four outbound
 connections up.

This avoids quickly filling up with peers lacking the relevant
 services when addrman has few or none of them.

Base64 contains '/', and the '/' character in credentials is problematic
for AuthServiceProxy which represents the RPC endpoint as an URI with
user and password embedded.

Closes #8399.
