> This makes it harder for others to tamper with our adjusted time.
Rationale from the PR description:
> With the extra feeler connections (every 2 minutes on average) and extra block-relay-only connections (every 5 minutes on average) there are also now plenty of opportunities to gather a meaningful number of timedata samples from outbound peers.

> There are some measures in place to prevent abuse: the -maxtimeadjustment parameter with a default of 70 minutes, warnings in cases of large deviations, only using the first 200 samples (explanation), but I think that only using samples from outbound connections in the first place would be an additional safety measure that would make sense.

The difference with the source material is caused by D6024. This changes previous behavior slightly: now the computed time offset is assigned to the node even if we are not going to use it to compute our adjusted time. This `pfrom.nTimeOffset` is only used for display purposes (RPC results, GUI).
