sc-consensus-beefy: pump gossip engine while waiting for initialization conditions (#3435)
As part of BEEFY worker/voter initialization the task waits for certain
chain and backend conditions to be fulfilled:
- BEEFY consensus enabled on-chain & GRANDPA best finalized higher than
on-chain BEEFY genesis block,
- backend has synced headers for BEEFY mandatory blocks between best
BEEFY and best GRANDPA.
During this waiting time, any messages gossiped on the BEEFY topic for
current chain get enqueued in the gossip engine, leading to RAM bloating
and output warning/error messages when the wait time is non-negligible
(like during a clean sync).
This PR adds logic to pump the gossip engine while waiting for other
things to make sure gossiped messages get consumed (practically
discarded until worker is fully initialized).
Also raises the warning threshold for enqueued messages from 10k to
100k. This is in line with the other gossip protocols on the node.
