Motivation
This PR performs garbage collection on subdag commits only. Previously we were performing GC on every round advancement, which was relying on the improbability of going 100 rounds without committing a subdag. Now we guarantee that we don't throw away older certificates in the case we do go more than MAX_GC_ROUNDS without a commit.
Note: We may also consider adding a manual skip of older certificates in the commit phase.
