The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a pure test-code refactoring. It moves a list of fake network addresses and a helper loop from one test file into the shared test framework so other tests can reuse it. No production Bitcoin Core code is changed, and nothing about how real nodes connect or broadcast is modified.

Recommended action

No action required. This is a benign test-only refactor.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
