Investigate impact of splitting control extension messages from extensions messages #440

@lucassaldanha

Description

@lucassaldanha

We are sending control extensions messages using the current implementation of GossipRpcPartsQueue. We need to investigate the scenario where we have on the queue both a control extension message enabling a particular extension X, and a X extension message.

In the case of splitting, if the X extension message ends up being sent first, we might have an issue where the peer won't know we support that extension because the control extension message with the flag for X support will be sent later.

Questions:

  • Can this happen in practice?
