Merge PR #158: preserve Bitcoin Core Tor service naming

read_tor_address("bitcoin-core") was resolving through tor_service_name to
the shared "bitcoin" alias, but enrollment (install.rs auto-enroll and the
tor.create-service RPC) always names HiddenServiceDir/tor-hostnames entries
using the raw package_id verbatim — never canonicalized. On a real node
that's hidden_service_bitcoin-core, which the aliased lookup never found,
so the per-app UI Tor badge stayed empty even after the previous commit
made bitcoin-core auto-enrollable.

Give bitcoin-core its own identity-mapped arm instead of folding it into
the legacy bitcoin/bitcoin-knots/bitcoind alias, and pin all three lookup
tables (known_service_port, is_protocol_service, tor_service_name) with
regression tests so this alias-drift class of bug can't recur silently.
