This PR adds configuration options to control which peers can open inbound channels and how many channels each peer can open.
Right now, we can manually accept/reject each channel, but we don't have a way to automatically block known bad peers or stop a peer from spamming with lots of channels.

blocked_peerslist to automatically reject channels from specific peersmax_channels_per_peeroption to limit channels per peer
