Pull request overview

This pull request aims to fix issue ethereum#33279 by enabling V4 and V5 discovery to be disabled through the configuration file. The changes introduce a new DiscoveryV4 configuration field alongside the existing DiscoveryV5 field, add corresponding command-line flags, and modify the flag handling logic to respect configuration file settings.

Changes:

• Added DiscoveryV4 boolean field to p2p.Config struct for controlling V4 discovery
• Set default values for both DiscoveryV4 and DiscoveryV5 to true in node.DefaultConfig
• Introduced new DiscoveryV4Flag and updated DiscoveryV5Flag with new names and aliases
• Modified SetP2PConfig to only update discovery settings when flags are explicitly set, allowing config file values to be respected
