TODO this PR is incomplete
So far, it merely enriches the Relay mini protocol to limit bytes in-flight. This seems relevant for txs, since we'll probably want a relatively large window for them, but there's nothing bounding the amount of them. Thus a (maleficent?) peer might have the opportunity to send a large bolus of bytes.
That won't happen in the simulations, since we're not simulating adversaries, but the random txs could vary in that direction, and so the logic needed to mitigate the attack vector might also constrain the flow of honest traffic.
