If the peer (whether pruned or not itself) supports sending pruned blocks
to syncing nodes, the pruned version will be sent along with the hash
of the pruned data and the block weight. The original tx hashes can be
reconstructed from the pruned txes and theur prunable data hash. Those
hashes and the block weights are hashes and checked against the set of
precompiled hashes, ensuring the data we received is the original data.
It is currently not possible to use this system when not using the set
of precompiled hashes, since block weights can not otherwise be checked
for validity.
This is off by default for now, and is enabled by --sync-pruned-blocks

Such a template would yield an invalid block, though would require
an attacker to have mined a long blockchain with drifting times
(assuming the miner's clock is roughly correct)

The db txn in add_block ending caused the entire overarching
batch txn to stop.
Also add a new guard class so a db txn can be stopped in the
face of exceptions.
Also use a read only db txn in init when the db itself is
read only, and do not save the max tx size in that case.
