### Upgrade information

This upgrade is incompatible with versions older than v1.1.6.

At the start of the upgrade, mesh data will be pruned and compacted/vacuumed. Pruning takes longer for
nodes that joined the network earlier. For 1-week-old nodes, it takes ~20 minutes. for 3-week-old
nodes it takes ~40 minutes. The vacuum operation takes ~5 minutes and requires extra disk space
to complete successfully. If the size of state.sql is 25 GiB at the beginning of upgrade, the WAL file
(state.sql-wal) will grow to 25 GiB and then drop to 0 when the vacuum is complete. The node will resume
its normal startup routine after the pruning and vacuum is complete. The final size of state.sql is
expected to be ~1.5 GiB.

A new config `poet-request-timeout` has been added, that defines the timeout for requesting PoET proofs.
It defaults to 9 minutes so there is enough time to retry if the request fails.
