+ - Schedule multiple in-progress consensus downloads during client
+ bootstrap. Use the first one that starts downloading, close the
+ rest. This reduces failures when authorities are slow or down.
+ With #15775, it reduces failures due to fallback churn.
+ Implements #4483 (reduce failures when authorities are down).
+ Patch by "teor".
