Pre-connect on collator protocol #4381
Closed as not planned
Description
With AURA for example collators know when it is their turn to produce a block and can initiate a connection to the backing group before actually having the collation ready, thus saving time and improving performance.
This ticket can be seen as a preparation task to #3428 , but should be way faster to implement and should help with issues like this, until we have contextual execution ready.
As @ordian pointed out, we should also take care of collators disconnecting once they are done with their collation.
