fix: Critical P2P last_seen bug and reputation system improvements

CRITICAL FIX - LAST_SEEN BUG:
- Fixed root cause: update_peer_last_seen() now handles both peer ID and address
- Added support for 'genesis_node_003' format (was only accepting '161.97.86.81:8001')
- Uses dual indexing (peer_id_to_addr) for O(1) lookup
- Updates timestamp on ALL message types (blocks, txs, pings, consensus)
- Resolves '55.7 years ago' bug that caused network chaos after 12+ hours

REPUTATION SYSTEM FIXES:
- API now returns actual reputation values instead of hardcoded 90.0
- Proper conversion between P2P (0-100) and consensus (0.0-1.0) scales
- All rewards/penalties now properly applied:
  * Success: +1.0 per block
  * Failure: -2.0 for missed blocks
  * Emergency: +5.0 for taking over
  * Macroblock fail: -30.0 for failed leader
  * Recovery: +1%/hour to 70% baseline

EMERGENCY FAILOVER FIX:
- Uses actual peer.id instead of generating random node_5130b3c4 format
- Proper Genesis node IDs (genesis_node_001-005) in emergency selection

LOGGING IMPROVEMENTS:
- Added [MACROBLOCK] prefix to all macroblock consensus logs
- Clear distinction between microblock and macroblock operations
- Emergency operations marked with [MACROBLOCK] EMERGENCY

PEER COUNT FIX:
- Genesis nodes now correctly report validated_peers.len() as peer count
- Resolves API showing 'connected_peers: 0' but 'validated_peers: 4'

This fixes the critical network stability issue where nodes would consider each other offline after running for 12+ hours, causing constant emergency failovers and desynchronization.
