Gregory Sanders 2bfabb3e4f blockheaders include block height, nodes validate it
The block height validation is gated by the startup option
`con_blockheightinheader`, accesible in custom chains only
using option `chain=<name>`. Only if set to true will this
field be (de)serialized and evaluated in consensus logic.
Otherwise the field is simply ignored, other than being
stored in memory as the default value 0.
