We used to have reporting of bad blocks, but it was disabled
before the Frontier release. We need it back because users
are usually unable to provide the full RLP data of a bad
block when it occurs.

A shortcoming of this particular implementation is that the
origin peer is not tracked for blocks received during eth/63
sync. No origin peer info is still better than no report at
all though.

Calls to 'personal' API should be excluded from console history because

This fixes an issue where the following would lead to a panic due to a
channel being closed twice:

* Start mux
* Stop mux
* Sub to mux
* Unsub

This is fixed by setting the subscriptions status to closed resulting in
the Unsubscribe to ignore the request when called.

This fixes an issue where it's theoretical possible to cause a consensus
failure when hitting the lower end of the difficulty, though pratically
impossible it's worth a fix.
