7366266bd1 keep failed finalized chains to avoid retries (#3142)
## Issue Addressed

In very rare occasions we've seen most if not all our peers in a chain with which we don't agree. Purging these peers can take a very long time: number of retries of the chain. Meanwhile sync is caught in a loop trying the chain again and again. This makes it so that we fast track purging peers via registering the failed chain to prevent retrying for some time (30 seconds). Longer times could be dangerous since a chain can fail if a batch fails to download for example. In this case, I think it's still acceptable to fast track purging peers since they are nor providing the required info anyway

5e1f8a8480 Update to Rust 1.59 and 2021 edition (#3038)
## Proposed Changes

Lots of lint updates related to `flat_map`, `unwrap_or_else` and string patterns. I did a little more creative refactoring in the op pool, but otherwise followed Clippy's suggestions.

## Additional Info

We need this PR to unblock CI.

3bb30754d9 Keep track of failed head chains and prevent re-lookups (#1534)
## Overview

There are forked chains which get referenced by blocks and attestations on a network. Typically if these chains are very long, we stop looking up the chain and downvote the peer. In extreme circumstances, many peers are on many chains, the chains can be very deep and become time consuming performing lookups. 

This PR adds a cache to known failed chain lookups. This prevents us from starting a parent-lookup (or stopping one half way through) if we have attempted the chain lookup in the past.
