Pull request description:
# Motivation
The main motivation of this change and only behavior change noticeable by user is to allow running `coinstatsindex` on pruned nodes as has been requested [here for example](https://twitter.com/benthecarman/status/1388170854140452870?s=20).
# Background
`coinstatsindex` on pruned nodes can be enabled in a much simpler than it is done here but it comes with downside. The ability to run `blockfilterindex`on pruned nodes was added in #15946 but it also added the `blockfilterindex` as a dependency to `validation` and it introduced two new circular dependencies. Enabling `coinstatsindex` on pruned nodes in a similar way would add it as a dependency as well and introduce another circular dependency.
Instead, this PR introduces a `m_prune_blockers` map to `BlockManager` as a flexible approach to block pruning. Entities like `blockfilterindex`, for example, can add a key and a height to block pruning over that height. These entities need to update that value to allow more pruning when they are ready.
# Alternative approach
Upon completing the first draft of this PR I found #19463 as an alternative that follows the same but follows a very different approach. I am listing the main differences here as I see them:
- Usage of globals
- Blocks pruning with a start and a stop height
- Can persist blockers across restarts
- Blockers can be set/unset via RPCs
Personally, I don't think any of these are necessary to be added here but if the general approach or specific features are more appealing to reviewers I am happy to change to a solution based on that PR or port over specific parts of it here.
