66673f1 net: fix race condition in self-connect detection (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
This PR fixes a recently discovered race condition in the self-connect detection (see #30362 and #30368).
Initiating an outbound network connection currently involves the following steps after the socket connection is established (see [`CConnman::OpenNetworkConnection`](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/bd5d1688b4311e21c0e0ff89a3ae02ef7d0543b8/src/net.cpp#L2923-L2930) method):
1. set up node state
2. queue VERSION message (both steps 1 and 2 happen in [`InitializeNode`](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/bd5d1688b4311e21c0e0ff89a3ae02ef7d0543b8/src/net_processing.cpp#L1662-L1683))
3. add new node to vector `m_nodes`
If we connect to ourself, it can happen that the sent VERSION message (step 2) is received and processed locally *before* the node object is added to the connection manager's `m_nodes` vector (step 3). In this case, the self-connect remains undiscovered, as the detection doesn't find the outbound peer in `m_nodes` yet (see `CConnman::CheckIncomingNonce`).
Fix this by swapping the order of 2. and 3., by taking the `PushNodeVersion` call out of `InitializeNode` and doing that in the `SendMessages` method instead, which is only called for `CNode` instances in `m_nodes`.
The temporarily reverted test introduced in #30362 is readded. Fixes #30368.
Thanks go to vasild, mzumsande and dergoegge for suggestions on how to fix this (see bitcoin/bitcoin#30368 (comment) ff. and bitcoin/bitcoin#30394 (comment)).
