Handle the Block height out of range error gracefully by checking if
the node has synchronized to or beyond the required block height,
otherwise without this validation the node would keep the network
disabled if the user selected that option.
Provide a user-friendly message if the block height is out of range
and exit the script cleanly.
11b7269d83 script: Enhance validations in utxo_snapshot.sh (pablomartin4btc)
Pull request description:
This PR resolves#27841 and some more:
- Ensure that the snapshot height is higher than the pruned block height when the node is pruned (Suggested by @Sjors [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/28553#issuecomment-1804941396)).
- Validate the correctness of the file path and check if the file already exists (@hazeycode's [#27845](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27845)).
- Make network activity disablement optional for the user (Suggested by @Sjors [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16899#discussion_r342735815) and [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16899#issuecomment-536520911)).
- Ensure the `reconsiderblock` command is triggered on exit (@hazeycode's same PR as above), even in the case of user interruption (Ctrl-C).
In order to perform some testing please follow the instructions in the description of previous @hazeycode's PR #27845.
