The PR introduces two changes: - `Bifrost::find_tail()` will only attempt to seal the chain if FindTailOpts asks for consistent result; we don't need to cripple the fast path for find-tail. - Find tail will eagerly seal the chain without grace period. This is to avoid unnecessary startup delays for single-node setups. The fact that chain sealing is idempotent makes it lighterweight to perform as it'll coalesce nicely with other reconfigurations that might be happening concurrently.
