This change paves the way for saving more than just the block database to
the filesystem (such as address manager data, index data, etc) where the
name "dbdir" no longer makes sense.
When running in regression test mode, it is unlikely the user wants to
connect to permanent peers they have configured in their config file.
This commit modifies the code to ignore the config file entry when in
regression test mode. The user can still provide -a (or --addpeer) on the
command line to override this if they really want to connect out to a
specific peer during regression test mode.
Although not required if the proxy set is indeed Tor, setting this option
does the following:
- Sends DNS queries over the Tor network (during dns seed lookup). This
stops your IP from being leaked via DNS.
- Does not disable the listening port. This allows the hidden services
feature of Tor to be used.
