Merge #12264: Fix versionbits warning test
1e2e09e2f6 Fix intermittent failure in p2p-versionbits-warning.py (John Newbery)

ef2beb2c13 Fix flake8 warnings in p2p-versionbits-warning.py (John Newbery)

Pull request description:

  fixes #12259 (and tidies up the test)

  The problem was that the node was still in IBD at the point the last block was generated. UpdateTip() will not generate a warning if the node is still in IBD:

  cc5870a405/src/validation.cpp (L2151)

  The 'proper' fix would be to remove the overenthusiastic latching in DoWarning:

  cc5870a405/src/validation.cpp (L2135)

  so that more than one warning message can be output to `alertnotify`. Really we should suppress multiple messages of the same type, but allow messages to be output if they're for different warnings. That would mean the test wouldn't need to stop-start the node.
