Martti MalmiandJohnathan Corgan 7d7b551ca1 discovery: add opt-in mDNS LAN discovery ...

Add scoped mDNS / DNS-SD discovery for peers on the same local link,
giving sub-second pairing without a relay or NAT-traversal roundtrip.
A node advertises its npub, protocol version, and an optional network
scope over link-local multicast, and browses for matching adverts to
initiate Noise handshakes against same-LAN peers.

LAN discovery is disabled by default; operators enable it with
node.discovery.lan.enabled: true. Default-off avoids reintroducing a
per-LAN identity broadcast on nodes that have deliberately disabled
other discovery channels, and avoids any multicast surprise on upgrade.

The startup advertised-port picker now excludes bootstrap transports
and selects a non-bootstrap operational UDP transport with a stable
lowest-id selector, so the advertised port is deterministic across
restarts rather than dependent on HashMap iteration order. This
matches the per-dial transport selection used for discovered peers.
