would it make sense to use `cacheCoins.try_emplace` without the `forward_as_tuple` parts (similarly to what I've tried [in a related PR](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30326/files#diff-f0ed73d62dae6ca28ebd3045e5fc0d5d02eaaacadb4c2a292985a3fbd7e1c77cR44)) (in a separate commit or PR)

Probably not a realistic scenario (may require multithreaded access because of the `m_flags` guard, not sure) , but `m_prev` will never be `null` when we get here, right?

I find it quite confusing that `AddFlags` modifies the linked list as well (vs `GetFlags` only returning the flags, of course). Could make sense to split it to multiple methods or add the side-effect to the name

Since iteration could misbehave severely and this would pass (e.g. if `Next()` would return `null` we wouldn't even enter the loop), it could make more sense to iterate over the target nodes instead, something like:
```C++
auto node{head.second.Next()};
for (const auto& expected : nodes) {
BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL(&expected, node);
node = node->second.Next();
}
BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL(nullptr, node);
```

(as an added benefit, this has a single `Next()` call)

TODO: not yet sure why iteration is tied to mutation here

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29575#discussion_r1658897389)
I took a look at this to see if it would make sense to remove the comment, but looks like this is still consistent with the original approach, even after splitting the logic in two for txs and blocks:

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/commit/ef54b486d5333dfc85c56e6b933c81735196a25d

To me, it seems that, at the very least, this comment would need to be moved one case down, given `BlockValidationResult::BLOCK_MISSING_PREV` triggers misbehavior, so the comment doesn't apply there.

I dropped the refactoring commits e18887d3c45d4c0b2d414392ec33dbc36c0d8df7, cf67a72aea67b8ecf2c24200f69c68d1e7f4de4b and 912b800581ba6c21b0ed43832c6307f98e7a3af1 which move Transport and its prerequisites to `libbitcoin_common`. See https://github.com/Sjors/bitcoin/pull/47 for a more ambitious attempt to introduce a whole new `libbitcoin_net`, but became real big and distracting real fast :-)

> Upon receiving a response packet, the client MUST check the source IP address, and silently discard the packet if the address is not the address of the gateway to which the request was sent.

Using `connect(2)` on UDP socket nicely ensures that we only receive packets from that address (`dest_addr`), so that we don't have to check explicitly. Maybe expand the comment to show this purpose too and to avoid this `Connec
