This adds a new `GroupPassword` option to the configuration file. Only nodes that share the same `GroupPassword` are able to exchange overlay traffic with each other, allowing the formation of closed networks. This does not affect peerings, nodes with different `GroupPassword` set can still forward traffic for each other and act as routers in the wider network.

GroupPasswordset can still forward traffic for each other and act as routers in the wider network.If the
GroupPasswordis set, then it is not possible to access public services or nodes on the public testnet. This is intentional.
