//! This contains the logic for the long range (batch) sync strategy.
//!
//! The general premise is to group peers by their self-proclaimed finalized blocks and head
//! blocks. Once grouped, the peers become sources to download a specific `Chain`. A `Chain` is a
//! collection of blocks that terminates at the specified target head.
//!
//! This sync strategy can be separated into two distinct forms:
//! - Finalized Chain Sync
//! - Head Chain Sync
//!
//! ## Finalized chain sync
//!
//! This occurs when a peer connects that claims to have a finalized head slot that is greater
//! than our own. In this case, we form a chain from our last finalized slot, to their claimed
//! finalized slot. Any peer that also claims to have this last finalized slot is added to a pool
//! of peers from which batches of blocks may be downloaded. Blocks are downloaded until
//! the finalized slot of the chain is reached. Once reached, all peers within the pool are sent a
//! STATUS message to potentially start a head chain sync, or check if further finalized chains
//! need to be downloaded.
//!
//! A few interesting notes about finalized chain syncing:
//! - Only one finalized chain can sync at a time.
//! - The finalized chain with the largest peer pool takes priority.
//! - As one finalized chain completes, others are checked to see if we they can be continued,
//! otherwise they are removed.
//!
//! ## Head Chain Sync
//!
//! If a peer joins and there is no active finalized chains being synced, and it's head is
//! beyond our `SLOT_IMPORT_TOLERANCE` a chain is formed starting from this peers finalized slot
//! (this has been necessarily downloaded by our node, otherwise we would start a finalized chain
//! sync) to this peers head slot. Any other peers that match this head slot and head root, are
//! added to this chain's peer pool, which will be downloaded in parallel.
//!
//! Unlike finalized chains, head chains can be synced in parallel.
//!
//! ## Batch Syncing
//!
//! Each chain is downloaded in batches of blocks. The batched blocks are processed sequentially
//! and further batches are requested as current blocks are being processed.
