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.
There is a possible data race/panic between processBlockchainCh and
processPeerUpdates, since when we send to blockchainCh.Out in one
goroutine and close the channel in the other. The race is seen in some
Github Action runs.
This commit fix the race, by adding a peerUpdatesCh as a bridge between
processPeerUpdates and processBlockchainCh, so the former will send to
this channel, the later will listen and forward the message to
blockchainCh.Out channel.

## Description
Change block_size gauge to a histogram to observe block size overtime
This will help will see which chains have full blocks vs empty.

## Description
Internalize some libs. This reduces the amount ot public API tendermint is supporting. The moved libraries are mainly ones that are used within Tendermint-core.
