2f629f8 contrib: Remove suspicious hosts list from makeseeds (laanwj)

Pull request description:

  I have some qualms about maintaining a suspicious hosts list as part as the repository\*. But also, it's stale and irrelevant. I've checked the entire list and none of them is connectable. Only one still appars in `nodes_main.txt` but with low uptime and an old subversion string so it wouldn't be picked in the first place. This change removes the list and the functionality to use it.

  ref: bitcoin#17020 (comment)

  \* besides the commit noise, potential legal issues around accountability and liability that would come with maintaining such a blocklist actively, I don't think we should expose the project to
