SendHeadersTest -- test behavior of headers messages to announce blocks.

Setup: 

- Two nodes, two p2p connections to node0. One p2p connection should only ever
  receive inv's (omitted from testing description below, this is our control).
  Second node is used for creating reorgs.

Part 1: No headers announcements before "sendheaders"
a. node mines a block [expect: inv]
   send getdata for the block [expect: block]
b. node mines another block [expect: inv]
   send getheaders and getdata [expect: headers, then block]
c. node mines another block [expect: inv]
   peer mines a block, announces with header [expect: getdata]
d. node mines another block [expect: inv]

Part 2: After "sendheaders", headers announcements should generally work.
a. peer sends sendheaders [expect: no response]
   peer sends getheaders with current tip [expect: no response]
b. node mines a block [expect: tip header]
c. for N in 1, ..., 10:
   * for announce-type in {inv, header}
     - peer mines N blocks, announces with announce-type
       [ expect: getheaders/getdata or getdata, deliver block(s) ]
     - node mines a block [ expect: 1 header ]

Part 3: Headers announcements stop after large reorg and resume after getheaders or inv from peer.
- For response-type in {inv, getheaders}
  * node mines a 7 block reorg [ expect: headers announcement of 8 blocks ]
  * node mines an 8-block reorg [ expect: inv at tip ]
  * peer responds with getblocks/getdata [expect: inv, blocks ]
  * node mines another block [ expect: inv at tip, peer sends getdata, expect: block ]
  * node mines another block at tip [ expect: inv ]
  * peer responds with getheaders with an old hashstop more than 8 blocks back [expect: headers]
  * peer requests block [ expect: block ]
  * node mines another block at tip [ expect: inv, peer sends getdata, expect: block ]
  * peer sends response-type [expect headers if getheaders, getheaders/getdata if mining new block]
  * node mines 1 block [expect: 1 header, peer responds with getdata]

Part 4: Test direct fetch behavior
a. Announce 2 old block headers.
   Expect: no getdata requests.
b. Announce 3 new blocks via 1 headers message.
   Expect: one getdata request for all 3 blocks.
   (Send blocks.)
c. Announce 1 header that forks off the last two blocks.
   Expect: no response.
d. Announce 1 more header that builds on that fork.
   Expect: one getdata request for two blocks.
e. Announce 16 more headers that build on that fork.
   Expect: getdata request for 14 more blocks.
f. Announce 1 more header that builds on that fork.
   Expect: no response.
