[k2] SPIKE: Peer Behavior Module

[neonphog]

We need a way to understand cross-module some information about peer interactions:

• We want to know if a peer has recently been unresponsive, so we can skip even trying to communicate with them for a time period
• We want to know if we've sent too much data to a specific peer lately, so we want to slow down comms to not use all their bandwith
• We want to know if we've received too much data from a specific peer so we can close the connection with them to avoid all our bandwidth being used

We don't want this to be a "metrics" module.

A "Behavior" module to facilitate this type of information gathering should be designed.

• what all do we want to include in this module for the first iteration
• do these things need to be persisted, or should they be runtime memory only

This spike may produce a working module : )
