Right now most nodes Query Reject a lot. Since a query reject is a waste
of both bandwidth and CPU, it would be nice to be able to avoid them
whenever possible. To that end, it should be possible to set a flag in a
QueryAccepted message indicating that the node is close to overload, but
has graciously decided to handle the query anyway.

When a node gets an accepted message with that flag set, it should
update the routing table the same way it would if it had received a
Rejected message instead - instead of the way it normally updates after
receiving QueryAccepted. This should hopefully reduce the number of
actual QueryRejects - and those are really killing the network
presently.
