p2p/nat: delay auto discovery until first use

Port mapper auto discovery used to run immediately after parsing the
--nat flag, giving it a slight performance boost. But this is becoming
inconvenient because we create node.Node for all geth operations
including account management and bare chain interaction. Delay
autodiscovery until the first use instead, which avoids any network
interaction until the node is actually started.
