enode.Node was recently changed to store a cache of endpoint information. The IP address in the cache is a netip.Addr. I chose that type over net.IP because it is just better. netip.Addr is meant to be used as a value type. Copying it does not allocate, it can be compared with ==, and can be used as a map key.
This PR changes most uses of Node.IP() into Node.IPAddr(), which returns the cached value directly without allocating.
While there are still some public APIs left where net.IP is used, I have converted all code used internally by p2p/discover to the new types. So this does change some public Go API, but hopefully not APIs any external code actually uses.
There weren't supposed to be any semantic differences resulting from this refactoring, however it does introduce one: In package p2p/netutil we treated the 0.0.0.0/8 network (addresses 0.x.y.z) as LAN, but netip.Addr.IsPrivate() doesn't. The treatment of this particular IP address range is controversial, with some software supporting it and others not. IANA lists it as special-purpose and invalid as a destination for a long time, so I don't know why I put it into the LAN list. It has now been marked as special in p2p/netutil as well.

This change updates our urfave/cli dependency to the v2 branch of the library.
There are some Go API changes in cli v2:
- Flag values can now be accessed using the methods ctx.Bool,
ctx.Int, ctx.String, ... regardless of whether the flag is 'local' or
'global'.
- v2 has built-in support for flag categories. Our home-grown category
system is removed and the categories of flags are assigned as part of
the flag definition.
For users, there is only one observable difference with cli v2: flags must now
strictly appear before regular arguments. For example, the following command is
now invalid:
geth account import mykey.json --password file.txt
Instead, the command must be invoked as follows:
geth account import --password file.txt mykey.json
The new -limit option makes the filter operate on top N nodes by score.
This also adds ENR attribute stats in the nodeset info command.
Node set commands are now documented in README.
In Geth v1.10, we changed the structure of the "les" ENR entry. As a result, the DHT crawler that creates the DNS lists
no longer recognizes the les nodes, which is fixed in this commit.
