Add peers to lookup ancestors #5708

Open dapplion opened 2 months ago

dapplion commented 2 months ago

Description

If a peer claims to have imported block A, and we have a parent chain of blocks with block A as tip, then the peer must know about all those ancestor blocks.

We should insert the peer into all those lookups, not just the lookup of block A.

Version
