aa89e04e07 doc: document PeerManager::Options members (stickies-v)

Pull request description:

  Avoid out-of-bounds user input for `PeerManager::Options` by safely clamping `-maxorphantx` and `-blockreconstructionextratxn`, and avoid platform-specific behaviour by changing `PeerManager::Options::max_extra_txs` from `size_t` to a `uint32_t`. Addresses https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27499#pullrequestreview-1544114932.

  Also documents all `PeerManager::Options` members, addressing https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27499#discussion_r1272302469.

src/node/

The src/node/ directory contains code that needs to access node state (state in CChain, CBlockIndex, CCoinsView, CTxMemPool, and similar classes).

Code in src/node/ is meant to be segregated from code in src/wallet/ and src/qt/, to ensure wallet and GUI code changes don't interfere with node operation, to allow wallet and GUI code to run in separate processes, and to perhaps eventually allow wallet and GUI code to be maintained in separate source repositories.

As a rule of thumb, code in one of the src/node/, src/wallet/, or src/qt/ directories should avoid calling code in the other directories directly, and only invoke it indirectly through the more limited src/interfaces/ classes.

This directory is at the moment sparsely populated. Eventually more substantial files like src/validation.cpp and src/txmempool.cpp might be moved there.
