[bisq-network/bisq] On startup, offer 2 modes: Maximize Privacy vs Maximize Convenience (#4620)

[cd2357]

Bisq has many places which strike a balance between privacy and user convenience.

However, some users might be ready to sacrifice one for the other, while not knowing exactly how to "configure" Bisq for that.

Therefore, Bisq could offer the users a choice about how they want to run Bisq / what defaults do they want Bisq to present them with.

A few examples:

|         |Maximize Privacy mode |Maximize Convenience mode  |
| :------------- |:------------- | :----- |
| Bitcoin nodes   | Bisq would only connect to a local or a custom node | Bisq would behave as now, i.e. connect to the Bisq-provided nodes |
| Connection to Bitcoin nodes   | only connect to Bitcoin nodes via Tor | connect to Bitcoin nodes in cleartext (faster startup and shutdown times) |
| Funding a trade   | only offer the option to "Fund from External Wallet" | only offer the option to "Fund from Bisq Wallet" |
| Complete a trade   | only offer the option to " Retrieve to External Wallet" | only offer the option to "Keep in Bisq Wallet" |

These could be "defaults", which are set either way depending on the chosen mode -- but could be changed individually by the user under Settings as well.
