    Block announcements via headers may have up to MAX_BLOCKS_TO_ANNOUNCE = 8 entries according to the definition of this constant. However, there are a few spots saying they should have a size less than MAX_BLOCKS_TO_ANNOUNCE. Fix these. I don't think that this is critical (this only changes behavior when we get a headers announcement with exactly MAX_BLOCKS_TO_ANNOUNCE blocks which we can't connect), but it would be nice to handle this limit consistently.

  2. p2p, doc: Use MAX_BLOCKS_TO_ANNOUNCE consistently
    It is an inclusive upper bound according to its definition.
