Max number of outgoing connections is now 10, instead of 8
Running Bitcoin Core version v22.0.0 (release build), I can see that the max number of outgoing connections is 10.
$ cat ~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf

$ bitcoin-cli -getinfo

The full node page at https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node has a number of references to this number being 8. I'll submit a PR shortly.
The change seems to come from https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/15759, that was incorporated into 0.19.0.1(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/release-notes/release-notes-0.19.0.1.md).
