validation: don't modify genesis during snapshot load

Avoid modifying the genesis block index entry during snapshot load. This
is because, in a future change that fixes LoadBlockIndex for UTXO
snapshots, we detect block index entries that are reliant on
assumed-valid ancestors and treat them specially.

Since the genesis block doesn't have BLOCK_VALID_SCRIPTS, it would be
erroneously marked BLOCK_ASSUMED_VALID during snapshot load if we didn't
skip it here. This would cause a "setBlockIndexCandidates() empty"
assertion to be tripped since all block index entries would be marked
assume-valid due to genesis, which is never re-validated.

There's probably no good reason to modify the genesis block index entry
during snapshot load anyway...
