Allow connections from misbehavior banned peers.
This allows incoming connections from peers which are only banned due to an automatic misbehavior ban if doing so won't fill inbound. These peers are preferred for eviction when inbound fills, but may still be kept if they fall into the protected classes. This eviction preference lasts the entire life of the connection even if the ban expires. If they misbehave again they'll still get disconnected. The main purpose of banning on misbehavior is to prevent our connections from being wasted on unhelpful peers such as ones running incompatible consensus rules. For inbound peers this can be better accomplished with eviction preferences. A secondary purpose was to reduce resource waste from repeated abuse but virtually any attacker can get a nearly unlimited supply of addresses, so disconnection is about the best we can do.
