* Fix NC filter for domains suffix-only domains * Update CHANGELOG * Fix unit test for filter Some domains might be composed of the suffix only. There are no nonsense domains, as they can be defined even on the local machine. The underlying library doesn't resolve them, but rather uses a fixed list of public suffixes to assess the domains. * Fix clippy

Network requester
The network requester is used to interpret socks5 client messages that need to be proxied to a running service i.e. a host and a port.
If you have a service that you want to expose to the mixnet, you'd need to first run the native client and provide the client address to your users that will use it in their socks5 configuration.
After starting the native client, start the network requester and configure it,
setting your service's endpoint in
${HOME}/.nym/service-providers/network-requester/allowed.list
Running in open-proxy mode allows any traffic to be proxied by the network
requester.
Statistics service
The network requester can be ran as a gatherer of statistics for all
the services it proxies. For that, run the binary with the
enable-statistics flag enabled. Anonymized statistics are then sent to
a central server, through the mixnet.
