The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only adds a new automated test to Bitcoin Core. It checks that when the node is full of block-only peers (peers that do not relay transactions), an incoming connection is rejected rather than incorrectly kicking out a block-only peer. There is no code change to the actual Bitcoin node behavior—only a test is added.

Recommended action

No action required; this is a test-only addition. Reviewers may optionally confirm the test passes and that the behavior it exercises is already present in the production code.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
