Can this get tagged for v26.04?

Probably you have just to fix the pre build check with Changelog-None: .... and I will share this in Discord to see if the team will include this!

BTW IIRC the seed is not being used anymore, but it's worth cleaning up

Actually, we dropped use of DNS seeds altogether: they were generally unreliable. This is a remnant, when a proxy is used. I shall excise the code instead.

For 25.05 (0a94f3b) we removed DNS lookups,
but we left them for the corner case where a proxy is used.  darosior points
out that his is no longer functional, which brought my attention to this
vestigial corner case.

Changelog-None: we said we'd removed them earlier!
