P2P peer prioritization logic for tx relay

Scenario

Bitcoin nodes relay txs to each other over the P2P network. If a node receives a valid tx from a peer, it adds it to the mempool and relays it to its other peers. If it receives an invalid tx from a peer, it must decide what action to take. We distinguish three cases:

  1. a transaction which is valid according to consensus rules, but invalid according to the node's policy rules.
  2. a transaction which is valid according to long-established consensus rules,
