- Added network sharding capabilities to the node that should effectively create "smarter" connections between peers reducing the amount of bandwidth used, protecting the node in the same time against the "eclipse" attack.

- Bugfixes in the sync and SC processing areas
- Updated comments and flags
Note: This release should start with a new DB
