It's bogus and no other node implementation has anything like that. It fires
up for no good reason in the case when some other node connects to us and it
obviously doesn't use its listening port for it.
In the very specific case when the list of headers received is exactly one
block ahead of the chain of full blocks requestBlocks() failed to generate
request to get the next full block.
This one will replace blockCache in Blockchain itself as it can and should be
external from it. The idea is that we only feed successive blocks into the
Blockchain and it only stores valid proper Blockchain and nothing else.
...and don't try to connect to the nodes we're already connected to.
Before this change we had a problem of discoverer throwing away good valid
addresses just because they are already known which lead to pool draining over
time (as address reuse was basically forbidden and getaddr may not get enough
new nodes).
Queuing one message is not reliable enough, the peer that gets it can fail to
actually make a request, so make this queue a bit deeper to have a higher
chance of success.
This makes writer side handle errors properly and fixes communication between
reader and writer goroutine to always correctly unregister the peer. This is
especially important for the case where error occurs before handshake
completes as in this case we don't even have goroutine in startProtocol()
running.
