Do not require txindex over the full node

Browse Source 
Lookup confirmed transactions only at their blocks (using
the `blockhash` parameter of `getrawtransaction` RPC).

Note that seeking inside a block (on a HDD) doesn't take
too much time when compare to reading the whole block and
finding the transaction (even without a client-side cache).

Note: txindex takes ~16GB today (over Bitcoin mainnet).

Use p2p protocol for querying blocks - similar to `bitcoincore-indexd`
Lookup confirmed transactions only at their blocks (using `blockhash` parameter of `getrawtransaction` RPC), so -txindex won't be needed
