1c07500dbb6b93510425c8bbdb320f2533efdb3d contrib: make DNS seeds file an argument in CLI (brunoerg)
Pull request description:
Instead of using `makeseeds.py` this way:
```sh
python3 makeseeds.py -a asmap-filled.dat < seeds_main.txt > nodes_main.txt
```
We could use the DNS seeds file as an argument since it is a required one. It improves the way the script handles it when that file is missing as well as makes this script more friendly.
E.g:
```sh
python3 makeseeds.py -a asmap-filled.dat -s seeds_main.txt > nodes_main.txt
```
