This is a temporary fix for a problem which started happening when the
dialer was changed to read nodes from an enode.Iterator. Before the
iterator change, discovery queries would always return within a couple
seconds even if there was no Internet access. Since the iterator won't
return unless a node is actually found, discoverTask can take much
longer. This means that the 'emergency connect' logic might not execute
in time, leading to a stuck node.
