The test node_server.bind_same_p2p_port fails by default on OpenBSD
for at least the debug build. Using the same ifconfig command as
described for MacOS results in the test passing.
Resolves#8932 and:
2. Not storing cache when new path is different from old in `store_to()` and
3. Detecting same path when new path contains entire string of old path in `store_to()` and
4. Changing your password / decrypting your keys (in this method or others) and providing a bad original password and getting no error and
5. Changing your password and storing to a new file
ffbf9f4 blockchain_and_pool: move to crytonote_core and enforce its usage (jeffro256)
d6f86e5 Avoid nullptr dereference when constructing Blockchain and tx_memory_pool (lukas)
Read more about k-anonymity [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-anonymity). We implement this feature in the monero daemon for transactions
by providing a "Txid Template", which is simply a txid with all but `num_matching_bits` bits zeroed out, and the number `num_matching_bits`. We add an operation to `BlockchainLMDB` called
`get_txids_loose` which takes a txid template and returns all txids in the database (chain and mempool) that satisfy that template. Thus, a client can
ask about a specific transaction from a daemon without revealing the exact transaction they are inquiring about. The client can control the statistical
chance that other TXIDs (besides the one in question) match the txid template sent to the daemon up to a power of 2. For example, if a client sets their `num_matching_bits`
to 5, then statistically any txid has a 1/(2^5) chance to match. With `num_matching_bits`=10, there is a 1/(2^10) chance, so on and so forth.

Unrelated, but similar code-wise to #8643. There is a check in `DNSResolver` which automatically fails to resolve hostnames which do not contain the `.` character. This PR removes that check.
Fixes#8633. The function `append_net_address` did not parse hostname + port addresses (e.g. `bar:29080`) correctly if the hostname did not contain a `'.'` character.

clear up 2nd conditional statement
update_checkpoints() makes a few DNS requests and can take up to 20-30 seconds to complete (3-6 seconds on average). It is currently called from core::handle_incoming_block() which holds m_incoming_tx_lock, so it blocks all incoming transactions and blocks processing while update_checkpoints() is running. This PR moves it to until after a new block has been processed and relayed, to avoid full monerod locking.
