isSyncCandidate is now changed to return true even if the peer is a pruned node if and only if our chaintip is within 288 blocks of the peer. Rationale: Pruned nodes that signal NODE_NETWORK_LIMITED MUST serve 288 blocks from their chaintip. If our chaintip is within that range, this peer can be a sync candidate even if they aren't an archival node. |

netsync
Overview
This package implements a concurrency safe block syncing protocol. The SyncManager communicates with connected peers to perform an initial block download, keep the chain and unconfirmed transaction pool in sync, and announce new blocks connected to the chain. Currently the sync manager selects a single sync peer that it downloads all blocks from until it is up to date with the longest chain the sync peer is aware of.
