(Antoine Riard) Pull request description: This is ready for review. Recent discussions among LN devs have brought back on the surface concerns about the security of multi-party funded transactions against pinnings attacks and other mempool-based nuisances. The lack of full-rbf transaction-relay topology connected to miners open the way to cheap and naive DoS against multi-party funded transactions (e.g coinjoins, dual-funded channels, on-chain DLCs, ...) without solutions introducing an overhead cost or centralization vectors afaik . For more details, see [0]. This PR implements a simple `fullrbf` setting, where the node always allows transaction replacement, ignoring BIP125 opt-in flag. The default value of the setting stays **false**, therefore opt-in replacement is still the default Bitcoin Core replacement policy. Contrary to a previous proposal of mine and listening to feedbacks collected since then [1], I think this new setting simply offers more flexibility in a node transaction-relay policy suiting one's application requirements, without arguing a change of the default behavior. I [posted](https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2022-June/020557.html) on the ML to invite operators with a bitcoin application sensitive to full-rbf (e.g dual-funded LN channels service providers) or mempool researchers to join a bootstrapped full-rbf activated peers network for experimentation and learning. If people have strong opinions against the existence of such full-rbf transaction-relay network, I'm proposing to express them on the future thread.

What is Bitcoin Core?
Bitcoin Core connects to the Bitcoin peer-to-peer network to download and fully validate blocks and transactions. It also includes a wallet and graphical user interface, which can be optionally built.
Further information about Bitcoin Core is available in the doc folder.
License
Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.
Development Process
The master branch is regularly built (see doc/build-*.md for instructions) and tested, but it is not guaranteed to be
completely stable. Tags are created
regularly from release branches to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin Core.
The https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui repository is used exclusively for the development of the GUI. Its master branch is identical in all monotree repositories. Release branches and tags do not exist, so please do not fork that repository unless it is for development reasons.
The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.
Testing
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.
Automated Testing
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to
submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run
(assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running
and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.
There are also regression and integration tests, written
in Python.
These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py
The CI (Continuous Integration) systems make sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.
Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing
Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.
Translations
Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Bitcoin Core's Transifex page.
Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.
Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
