Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#26822: p2p, rpc: don't allow past absolute timestamp in setban

abccb27 test: add coverage for absolute timestamp in `setban` (brunoerg)
b99f1f2 p2p, rpc: don't allow past absolute timestamp in `setban` (brunoerg)

Pull request description:

  We shouldn't allow call `setban` with past absolute timestamp. First, because doesn't make sense to ban a node until ~ past ~. Besides that, it could make an unnecessary write to the DB since `BanMan::Ban` calls `DumpBanlist` and it calls `SweepBanned` which will remove this new ban (because of the timestamp) of the array.
