🎯 Problem to be solved

To prevent missing proposals we shall revisit the timings used by consensus layer.
Once the final values confirmed, we need to introduce a new timer type and a new version of QBFT protocol (see Consensus Abstraction design) that is using this new timer.

🛠️ Proposed solution

  • Review the statistics on timings reported by Data.
  • Implement new timer type and configure the new QBFT protocol version, say qbft/v2.1.0.
  • Possibly change --consensus-protocol flag behavior to allow fully qualified protocol strings (so we can override with the precise qbft version).

🧪 Tests

  • Tested by new automated unit/integration/smoke tests
  • Manually tested on core team/canary/test clusters
  • Manually tested on local compose simnet

core/consensus: add new consensus round timer (#3440)

Add a third consensus round timer which implements the following behavior:
- First consensus round has 1 second to complete
- Subsequent rounds have exponentially more time starting at 200ms (400ms, 800ms, 1.6s, etc...)
