49d569c p2p: For assumeutxo, download snapshot chain before background chain (Martin Zumsande)
7a88551 p2p: Restrict downloading of blocks for snapshot chain (Martin Zumsande)

Pull request description:

  After loading a snapshot, `pindexLastCommonBlock` is usually already set to some block for existing peers. That means we'd continue syncing the background chain from those peers instead of prioritising the snapshot chain, which defeats the purpose of doing assumeutxo in the first place. Only existing peers are affected by this bug.
