Motivation
Ref #2036
depending on the endpoint,
eth_getBlockByNumber
may still return a pending block for the block number returned by `eth_blockNumberSolution
if not set, we find the latest block that has a
hash
field.we start with "latest" and walk back, but at most 2 blocks, which should be sufficient
