client reducer call args missmatch log spam #4943

Description

during some testing i found that the server logs each time a client sends a bad reducer call with a log like this

this is one client calling it every 100ms with bad parameters.

  1. one log would be enough per client
  2. it should disconnect the client as the client is clearly broken or someone is trying to make a custom client and got the parameters wrong.

right now this is a DOS attack point as it fills the logs and as reducers aren't rate limited, it can spam the logs with a call every microsecond or faster. (1000+ bad requests per second but theoretically 10k+ bad requests per second).
