Not initiating outbound connections except bootnodes.

Copied from Telegram:

I might be missing something here but it seems like we never make PING except these scenarios

• sending PING to bootnodes while starting
• we try to initiate connection from out side when we receice PING from other peers.
• when we revalidate peers every 12hours.
  and due to this we don't have large enough pool of peers to send FindNodes request even after few minutes.

Geth when sending FindNode makes sure that we have bonded with peer using PING.

I let the node run on hoodi without consensus client for 10minutes.

• only two nodes were validated out of almost 2000
• 18 pings were sent out of those 16 were to bootnodes.
• only 8 Pongs were received.
