Merge #19474: doc: Use precise permission flags where possible

fab5586122 doc: Use precise permission flags where possible (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  Instead of mentioning the all-encompassing `-whitelist*` settings, change the docs to mention the exact permission flag that will influence the behaviour.

  This is needed because in the future, the too-broad `-whitelist*` settings (they either include *all* permission flags or apply to *all* peers) might be deprecated to require the permission flags to be enumerated.

  Alternatively, in the future there could be an RPC to set the net permission flags on an existing connection, in which case the `-whitelist*` terminology is of no help.

@@ -50,7 +50,7 @@ Be reminded of the effects of this setting.
Doing so disables the automatic broadcasting of transactions from wallet. Not
relaying other's transactions could hurt your privacy if used while a wallet
is loaded or if you use the node to broadcast transactions.
- If a peer is whitelisted and "-whitelistforcerelay" is set to "1" (which will
also set "whitelistrelay" to "1"), we will still receive and relay their transactions.
- If a peer has the forcerelay permission, we will still receive and relay
their transactions.
- It makes block propagation slower because compact block relay can only be
used when transaction relay is enabled.
