[bisq-network/bisq] Allow 1 sat/vbyte fee (#5633)

[cd2357]

Some people use withdrawals to fund their next trade. For a long while, Bisq allowed 1sat/vB withdrawals. However, Mempool got crowded for a few weeks and these 1 sat/vB transactions then resulted in stalled / expired trades, support tickets, and generally a lot of unnecessary disruption.

See the link above from pazza for a more detailed discussion.

The difference from 1 sat/vB to 2 is so small, that its not worth the risk.

FYI there are ways to make up for that difference (and more) :
- for all your trades, pay the trading fees in BSQ instead of BTC (about 50% savings)
- become a market maker, instead of a taker (those who create offers pay much smaller trading fees)
- try to create trade offers when the mempool is free (lower estimated mining fees for both trade participants)
- instead of many trades with small amounts, go for fewer trades with higher amounts
