Motivation
The motivation behind this PR is to have a mechanism of banning peer IPs as outlined here to mitigate cases that might stall client/validators.
Approach
A banned peers list was implemented to store peers acting maliciously that are banned for 300 seconds. If a peer sends more than 10 connection requests in under 10 seconds they get banned and if a peer does not respond to block requests within 600 seconds ( can be changed ) they get banned.
Test Plan
This was tested on an isolated network with a different ip/machine per peer. Plan is to test this out on the Canary network with the relevant attacks.
