Removes the dumptxoutset RPC, -loadutxosnapshot / -loadutxosnapshotunsafe,
the CCoinsViewDB Dump/LoadSnapshot machinery + CUTXOSnapshotHeader, the
AssumeutxoData chainparams anchor, the LoadSnapshotChainstate activation +
reorg-below-H guard, the persisted assumeutxo-height flag, and the gtest.
Rationale: it duplicated the existing bootstrap (same skip-the-genesis-grind
fast-sync, no speed advantage), its only real edge was a trust model we don't
need for this chain, and it was inert anyway (no published snapshot hash in
chainparams). The -loadutxosnapshot load path adopted an external UTXO set and
bypassed genesis validation, so removing it also drops that attack surface.
Builds clean (no dangling references); the kept IBD speedups (RandomX
pre-verify, adaptive dbcache, tlsmanager) are untouched.

- Parallel RandomX PoW pre-verification pool (CCheckQueue) run ahead of the serial
connect; consensus-neutral (inline CheckRandomXSolution fallback still verifies
anything not pre-verified). New -randomxverifythreads (default = -par).
- Adaptive dbcache: default sizes the UTXO/coins cache to most of RAM and shrinks
under memory pressure, always leaving a reserve free; -dbcache pins a fixed value.
- P2P block download: bounded socket recv-drain loop (tlsmanager); frontier-block
reassignment to break head-of-line stalls (-blockreassigntimeout); ProcessGetData
serves a bounded batch of blocks per pass instead of one (fixes the serve-side
one-block-per-tick throttle that caps download network-wide).
- assumeutxo: dumptxoutset RPC + LoadSnapshot machinery + AssumeutxoData chainparams.
- Signed bootstrap verification (util/bootstrap-dragonx.sh, util/sign-bootstrap.md).
- gtest: RandomX pre-verify consensus-equivalence test + UTXO-snapshot round-trip;
revived the gtest harness (Makefile.am include fix, Makefile.gtest.include).

If a block is insufficiently-validated against a particular branch ID, then we
cannot guarantee that even the block header will be valid under the actual
consensus rules the node will want to apply. Instead require that the blocks are
completely re-validated, by removing them from the block index (which is
equivalent to reducing their validity to BLOCK_VALID_UNKNOWN).
Requires placing block-107134.tar.gz (containing the block, and a fake CoinsDB
containing its inputs) into the base directory of the repository. This can be
generated using qa/zcash/create_benchmark_archive.py (see the script for usage
details).
To facilitate generation of the fake CoinsDB, an additional field 'valueZat' has
been added to 'getrawtransaction' containing the integer number of zatoshis
instead of a decimal number of ZEC.
Closes#2355.
