approaches another part of #16613 ("Functional test suite bottlenecks")
As for wallet_backup.py (Commit 581c9be0d8), the
bottleneck is in relaying transactions. By whitelisting the peers, the
inventory is transmissioned immediately rather than on average every 5 seconds,
speeding up the test significantly:

fadfd844de test: Remove unused connect_nodes_bi (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:
By default all test nodes are connected in a chain. However, instead of just a single connection between each pair of nodes, we end up with up to four connections for a "middle" node (two outbound, two inbound, from each side).
This is generally redundant (tx and block relay should succeed with just a single connection) and confusing. For example, test timeouts after a call to `sync_` may be racy and hard to reproduce. On top of that, the test `debug.log`s are hard to read because txs and block invs may be relayed on the same connection multiple times.
Fix this by inlining `connect_nodes_bi` in the two tests that need it, and then replace it with a single `connect_nodes` in all other tests.
Historic background:
`connect_nodes_bi` has been introduced as a (temporary?) workaround for bug #5113 and #5138, which has long been fixed in #5157 and #5662.

Based on suggestion by Pieter Wuille <pieter.wuille@gmail.com> at
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/12119#issuecomment-357982763
After #12119, the NONE output type was overloaded to refer to either an output
type that couldn't be parsed, or to an automatic change output mode. This
change drops the NONE enum and uses a simple bool indicate parse failure, and a
new CHANGE_AUTO enum to refer the change output type.
This change is almost a pure refactoring except it makes RPCs reject empty
string ("") address types instead of treating them like they were unset. This
simplifies the parsing code a little bit and could prevent RPC usage mistakes.
It's noted in the release notes.
Moves the parts of validateaddress which require the wallet into getaddressinfo
which is part of the wallet RPCs. Mark those parts of validateaddress which
require the wallet as deprecated.
Validateaddress will call getaddressinfo
for the data that both share for right now.
Moves IsMine functions to libbitcoin_common and then links libbitcoin_wallet
before libbitcoin_common in order to prevent linker errors since IsMine is no
longer used in libbitcoin_server.
