This PR make some tweaks to backfill after running e2e tests:
- Separates sync and backfill as two distinct processes that the node calls. The reason is because if sync fails then the node should fail but if backfill fails it is still possible to proceed.
- Removes peers who don't have the block at a height from the local peer list. As the process goes backwards if a node doesn't have a block at a height they're likely pruning blocks and thus they won't have any prior ones either.
- Sleep when we've run out of peers, then try again.
I believe that this, in my testing seems to help the e2e state-sync
tests complete more reliably, by fixing some potential, range-related
slice building, as well as the way the test app hashes snapshots.
Additionally, and I'm not sure if we want to do this, but I added this
hook to the reactor that re-sends the request for snapshots during the
retry. This helps in tests prevent systems from getting stuck, but I
think in reality, it might create more traffic, and operators would
just restart a state-syncing node to get a similar effect.

- replace `MaxReconnectAttempts`, `ReadWait`, `WriteWait` and `PingPeriod` options with `WSOptions` in `WSClient` (rpc/jsonrpc/client/ws_client.go).
- set default write wait to 10s for `WSClient`(rpc/jsonrpc/client/ws_client.go)
- unexpose `WSEvents`(rpc/client/http.go)
Closes#6162
E2E tests often fail because validators miss signing or proposing blocks. Often this is because e.g. there's a lot of disruption in the network or it takes a long time to start up all the nodes.
This changes the test criteria to only check for 3 signed/proposed blocks, rather than a fraction of the expected blocks. This should be enough to catch most issues, apart from performance problems causing nodes to miss signing/proposing, but we may want separate tests for those sorts of things.
Executed a local network using simapp and looked for logs that seemed superfluous. This isn't by any means an exhaustive grooming, but should drastically help legibility of logs.
ref: #5912
E2E tests often fail due to fast sync stalls causing the validator to miss signing blocks. This increases the tolerance for missed signatures to 2/3 to allow validators to spend more time starting up.
