Etcm 1055 Adjust PeersClient.nextBestBlock() #1101

Closed AnastasiiaL closed 3 years ago

AnastasiiaL commented 3 years ago

Description

Adjust PeersClient.nextBestBlock(). It should be able to make sure the next best peer has a different best block, so we don't fetch in parallel identical branches

How will this interact with selecting peers from which to request blocks? They won't be matched up with corresponding one yet, right?

this was only for enabling a pool of selected peers. How this will be called was not refined yet
