Jormungandr: Node Peer overview and control

Is your feature request related to a problem/context ? Please describe if applicable.
There are currently lot of issues during bootstrap phase, some people in the Telegram group have reliable nodes, some of us even operate several nodes; it would be beneficial to have the ability to add new trusted peer using jcli instead of having to modify the config and restart Jormungandr process.

Describe the solution you'd like
./jcli rest v0 node peers add "/ip4/82.209.54.76/tcp/3000" -h http://127.0.0.1:3101/api or something similar would add my node as another trusted peer to a running instance of Jormungandr

Actually thinking about it, there should be whole API endpoint related to peer management and governance; ability to block certain peers, add new peers, show connected peers,.. currently we're all using OS tools like ss or netstat to see this kind of information; I believe Jormungandr has more information about the peer connection status than just ss or netstat, this information should be made available to node operators to enable better troubleshooting. I believe this makes it related to #846.
