f546b486bf introduce peers registry on nodes
- TestPeerPromotionByTdOnBlock renamed and skipped for now test should pass iff
  if TD is updated based on an agreement
- senders register in AddBlock, flag records if they are coming from newblock
  message (and therefore advertise their TD with the block) or block message
  (TODO: latter are stored on the cache and updated by checkTD call;
  protocol should also call AddBlock on newblock messages by non-best peers)
- remove TD update from optional TD field in addBlock: this is no longer part of
  the eth protocol spec -> TODO: reflect in wiki
- only initialise peer map if at least two

422490d75c major rewrite, reorg of blockpool + new features
- blockpool moves to its own package
- uses errs pkg for its own coded errors
- publicly settable config of params (time intervals and batchsizes)
- test helpers in subpackage
- optional TD in blocks used now to update peers chain info
- major improvement in algorithm
- fix fragility and sync/parallelisation bugs
- implement status for reporting on sync status (peers/hashes/blocks etc)
- several tests added and further corner cases covered
