Keep track of peers which are too divergent, and return an isTooDivergent boolean in /peers APIs.

isTooDivergent will be true or false if a definitive decision has been made, or missing from the response if not yet known. Therefore it should be safe to treat `"isTooDivergent": false` as a peer that is on the same chain.
