This is not really relevant to this question. I am not asking about the blocking of VoIP by mobile operators, or how to unblock them. I am asking about blocking unwanted calls originating from untrusted sources.

In fact, it suggests precisely what I'm asking, to configure the client to "only allow it to be contacted by the provider". Linphone is of-course the client here, hence my question on this list is to find out how to implement that solution.
