This patch increases aggression levels on 2 axes:

1) nukes "MAX_OUTBOUND_CONNECTIONS" and "one IP per C block"
   constraints

2) when TRB has not accepted a new block within the past 20
   minutes, it requests new blocks from each peer on each run
   through ThreadSocketHandler2's main body

I've run this for a few hours with mixed results: it dropped
behind at least once, and found blocks before blockchain.info at
least twice while I was watching (not that this is indicative of
much at all -- anecdata, if you will).
