[bisq-network/bisq] Temporary solution for high mining fees (#5282)

[cd2357]

While I agree with the idea behind it, I think overall the effort will probably not justify the benefit.

On the effort side, I see:
- implementing a UI for this
- ability to specify desired fee rate (store, persist, display, edit)
- ability to cancel such "tentative offers"
- ability to edit such "tentative offers" (without propagating the offer details, because offer is not "live")
- ability to persist such "tentative offers" across restarts, upgrades (incl. version upgrades, future protocol upgrades, etc)
- background listener / thread that constantly monitors latest fee rate + triggers such offers when the desired fee rate is reached
- testing all this

On the benefit side, I see
- market maker can save a bit of waiting in order to catch a smaller fee rate

The same result could be achieved if the market maker would wait for lower fee rates. It might actually be preferable, because the price will likely fluctuate and the value of the fee rate could be higher (in fiat) even if low in sat terms, or vice-versa. Either of those 2 variables can make the trade worth it or not (not just the nominal fee rate).
