This PR extends the Initialized event of the chainHead_follow subscription. Now, the event provides multiple finalized block hashes. This information allows clients that are disconnected, and that want to reconnect, to not lose information about the state of the chain. At the moment, the spec encourages servers to provide at least 1 minute of finalized blocks (~10 blocks). The users are responsible for unpinning these blocks at a later time. This PR tries to report at least 1 finalized block and at most 16 blocks, if they are available.

License
- Substrate Primitives (
sp-*), Frame (frame-*) and the pallets (pallets-*), binaries (/bin) and all other utilities are licensed under Apache 2.0. - Substrate Client (/client/*/sc-*) is licensed under GPL v3.0 with a classpath linking exception.
The reason for the split-licensing is to ensure that for the vast majority of teams using Substrate to create feature-chains, then all changes can be made entirely in Apache2-licensed code, allowing teams full freedom over what and how they release and giving licensing clarity to commercial teams.
In the interests of the community, we require any deeper improvements made to Substrate's core logic (e.g. Substrate's internal consensus, crypto or database code) to be contributed back so everyone can benefit.
