eth: additional cleanups to the subprotocol, improved block propagation

* Improved block propagation by sending blocks only to peers to which, as
  far as we know, the peer does not know about.
* Made sub protocol its own manager
* SubProtocol now contains the p2p.Protocol which is used instead of
  a function-returning-protocol thing.
