tor: make a TORv3 hidden service instead of TORv2

TORv2 is deprecated [1], thus whenever we create the hidden service
ourselves create a TORv3 one instead.

- The Tor onion service that is automatically created by setting the
`-listenonion` configuration parameter will now be created as a Tor v3 service
instead of Tor v2. The private key that was used for Tor v2 (if any) will be
left untouched in the `onion_private_key` file in the data directory (see
`-datadir`) and can be removed if not needed. Bitcoin Core will no longer
attempt to read it. The private key for the Tor v3 service will be saved in a
file named `onion_v3_private_key`. To use the deprecated Tor v2 service (not
recommended), then `onion_private_key` can be copied over
`onion_v3_private_key`, e.g.
`cp -f onion_private_key onion_v3_private_key`. (#19954)
