Pull request description:

  While looking at issue #21351, it turned out that the problem was a lack of tor v3 addresses known to the node. It became clear (e.g. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/21351#issuecomment-811004779) that a CLI command returning the number of addresses the node knows per network (with a tor v2 / v3 breakdown) would be very helpful. This patch adds that.

  `-addrinfo` is useful to see if your node knows enough addresses in a network to use options like `-onlynet=<network>`, or to upgrade to the upcoming tor release that no longer supports tor v2, for which you'll need to be sure your node knows enough tor v3 peers.

  ```
  $ bitcoin-cli --help | grep -A1 addrinfo
    -addrinfo
         Get the number of addresses known to the node, per network and total.

  $ bitcoin-cli -addrinfo
  {
    "addresses_known": {
      "ipv4": 14406,
      "ipv6": 2511,
      "torv2": 5563,
      "torv3": 2842,
      "i2p": 8,
      "total": 25330
    }
  }

  $ bitcoin-cli -addrinfo 1
  error: -addrinfo takes no arguments
  ```

  This can be manually tested, for example, with commands like this:
  ```
  $ bitcoin-cli getnodeaddresses 0 | jq '.[] | (select(.address | contains(".onion")) | select(.address | length <= 22)) | .address' | wc -l
  5563
  $ bitcoin-cli getnodeaddresses 0 | jq '.[] | (select(.address | contains(".onion")) | select(.address | length > 22)) | .address' | wc -l
  2842
  $ bitcoin-cli getnodeaddresses 0 | jq '.[] | .address' | wc -l
  25330
  ```

-------------------
- A new CLI `-addrinfo` command returns the number of addresses known to the
node per network type (including Tor v2 versus v3) and total. This can be
useful to see if the node knows enough addresses in a network to use options
like `-onlynet=<network>` or to upgrade to current and future Tor releases
that support Tor v3 addresses only. (#21595)
