fix: Address code review feedback for masternode-only BIP157

- Update release notes to accurately describe masternode-only behavior
- Revert DEFAULT_BLOCKFILTERINDEX back to "0" (non-masternodes don't need it)
- Add help text mentioning automatic enabling for masternodes
- Add functional test to verify masternode parameter interactions
- Remove unnecessary code for handling empty blockfilterindex names

These changes ensure the feature is properly documented and tested,
while keeping the implementation focused on masternodes only.

-- BIP157 compact block filters are now enabled by default. This improves privacy for light clients
-  and enables better support for pruned nodes. The `-blockfilterindex` option now defaults to `basic`
-  instead of `0` (disabled), and the `-peerblockfilters` option now defaults to `true` instead of `false` (#6711).
+- BIP157 compact block filters are now automatically enabled for masternodes. This improves privacy for light clients
+  connecting to masternodes and enables better support for pruned nodes. When a node is configured as a masternode
+  (via `-masternodeblsprivkey`), both `-peerblockfilters` and `-blockfilterindex=basic` are automatically enabled.
+  Regular nodes keep the previous defaults (disabled). Masternodes can still explicitly disable these features
+  if needed by setting `-peerblockfilters=0` or `-blockfilterindex=0` (#6711).
