CH12: s/reconverge/(converge|reorganize)/
...
- When appropriate, use the current preferred technical term
"reorganize" to describe what a node does when the block at the tip of
the chain is removed.
- Otherwise, just use "converge".

CH12: Drop mention of orphan blocks
...
- Orphan blocks are no longer a thing in Bitcoin Core since
headers-first download was implemented (version 0.10). Your peers
know what blocks you have; if they send you any block that doesn't
connect to one of those blocks, you just drop the connection to them.
