Be sure to update `PATTERN_AGENT` in `makeseeds.py` to include the current version,
and remove old versions as necessary.
The seeds compiled into the release are created from sipa's DNS seed data, like this:
curl -s http://bitcoin.sipa.be/seeds.txt > seeds_main.txt
python3 makeseeds.py < seeds_main.txt > nodes_main.txt
python3 generate-seeds.py . > ../../src/chainparamsseeds.h
