Duplicate Staring block found: 100 in /__w/spring/spring/build/TestLogs/distributed-transactions-test8/node_bios/stderr.2024_10_01_13_21_16.txt

Received block 100 late so it restarted speculative block 100. This is expected behavior, so not really sure what we want to do with this. The check was added to guard agaisnt a bug where a block was restarted when it was not suppose to be. Maybe the test should look at the timestamps and only fail if the start block is within some threshold.

We can update the test to only fail if a block number is repeated with the same timestamp. It should tolerate repeating a speculative block with a higher timestamp.

Note the timestamps are different, so the test should not fail.
