Intelligent block propagation #89

Right now blocks are broadcast to all peers, regardless of whether they already have that block.

Peers should be sent a hash of the new block and should respond confirming whether or not they want to accept the block. Obviously if the block matching that hash has already been received from a connected peer, it does not need to be sent.

Want to avoid slowing propagation too much though, so this gets tricky. The current algorithm is probably close to optimal until blocks get larger
