Description
Enables disjoint path lookups for libp2p's Kademlia implementation (part of S/Kademlia). This is a mitigation against byzantine peers attempting confuse the network by altering data on lookups crossing their path.
This change makes nodes query multiple disjoint paths (i.e. starting at different peer nodes) concurrently and requiring a minimum allowable quorum on the result.

Changes
