Motivation
Connections with validators are dropped after 1 minute due to connections being inactive.
Proposal
Use gRPC keep-alive to send ping frames every 40 seconds to keep the connections alive.
This is hard-coded for now. Future improvement involves client <> server negotation of the keepalive timeout value per-validator.
Test Plan
Manually tested. CI will catch regressions.
