Description

It seems that grin-miner.toml only supports the definition of a single stratum server.

Adding in support for multiple/fallback stratum servers would allow mining to continue in case the main server goes offline. This is a common feature of most mining software.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Modify the configuration to accept a list of stratum servers, implement connection fallback logic, and handle reconnection attempts.
