Anton Kaliaev 6fad8eaf5a [p2p/pex] connect to more than 10 peers (#2169)
* [p2p/pex] connect to more than 10 peers

also, remove DefaultMinNumOutboundPeers because a) I am not sure it's
needed b) it's super confusing

look closely

```
maxPeers := sw.config.MaxNumPeers - DefaultMinNumOutboundPeers
if maxPeers <= sw.peers.Size() {
  sw.Logger.Info("Ignoring inbound connection: already have enough peers", "address", inConn.RemoteAddr().String(), "numPeers", sw.peers.Size(), "max", maxPeers)
```

we print maxPeers = config.MaxPeers - DefaultMinNumOutboundPeers. So we
may not have enough peers even though we say we have enough.
