[bisq-network/bisq] Private 1:1 OTC trades executed on Bisq (#5314)

Let's say I found a party that has the other side of my trade. I don't know them but I know they would fill my trade. I don't want to bother myself with evaluating my level of trust with them. It sounds like Bisq would be ideal for this: we both go on Bisq, and leave the trust component to Bisq's logic. But I want to trade with this party only because I committed to the trade. Hence I want to put up a trade privately with another party. I don't want my bid or ask to be publicly displayed or hit. Can this be done?

## Benefits
- Simple trades: just need a conterparty ID (could be a Bisq? wallet address), a currency pair. Fill each other at market price
- Private, like Bisq is 
- Trustless: I don't have to worry about whether this person is trying to scare me or not. The trade will or will not happen, simple
- More biz for Bisq: each trade compensates infrastructure maintainers
- Bisq continues to be the ledger for these trades 

## Implementation
(I have no idea what I'm talking about)
It looks to me like most or all of the code and design are already here: It's really just posting a trade but not advertising it. Then anyone who's posted a trade can then send a permalink or contract address to this trade offer to their party and say "hit me here".
