Previously -proxy was not setting the proxy for IsLimited networks, so if you set your configuration to be onlynet=tor you wouldn't get an IPv4 proxy set. The payment protocol gets its proxy configuration from the IPv4 proxy, and so it would experience a connection leak. This addresses issue #5355 and also clears up a cosmetic bug where getinfo proxy output shows nothing when onlynet=tor is set.

Ouch ouch ouch. Good catch. Ideally the payment request code wouldn't even try connecting over IPv4 if the network is limited, but better to err on the safe side. |

Needs backport to 0.9.x too. |
