Description

### Context & versions

- **Network**: preprod
- **Config**: `PEER_DISCOVERY=true` enabled

### Steps to reproduce

1. Start docker-compose with `PEER_DISCOVERY=true`
2. Call `/network/status` endpoint immediately after startup
3. Wait 1 minute (initial PeerDiscoveryJob delay)
4. Call `/network/status` again
5. Observe peers response over time

### Actual behavior

- Initially (first hour): only bootstrap peer returned (`preprod-node.play.dev.cardano.org:3001`)
- yaci-indexer endpoint `/api/v1/rosetta/peers` returns empty array `[]`
- After extended wait (~1 hour): dynamic peers eventually populate
- Test `test_peer_list_contains_dynamic_entries` currently fails in CI due to excessive wait time

### Expected behavior

- Dynamic peers should populate within reasonable time (1-2 minutes) after initial delay
- Test should pass without requiring multi-hour wait
- `/network/status` should return discovered peers shortly after peer discovery job runs

Research direction

Start with test_peer_list_contains_dynamic_entries and reproduce the startup sequence using docker-compose with PEER_DISCOVERY=true. Inspect the PeerDiscoveryJob timing and the /network/status and /api/v1/rosetta/peers responses. Done means dynamic peers populate within about 1–2 minutes after the initial delay and the test passes without an extended wait.
