Merge #11580: Do not send (potentially) invalid headers in response to getheaders

Browse Source 
725b79a [test] Verify node doesn't send headers that haven't been fully validated (Russell Yanofsky)
3788a84 Do not send (potentially) invalid headers in response to getheaders (Matt Corallo)

Pull request description:

  Nowhere else in the protocol do we send headers which are for
  blocks we have not fully validated except in response to getheaders
  messages with a null locator. On my public node I have not seen any
  such request (whether for an invalid block or not) in at least two
  years of debug.log output, indicating that this should have minimal
  impact.
