validation: pruning for multiple chainstates

Introduces ChainstateManager::GetPruneRange().

The prune budget is split evenly between the number of chainstates,
however the prune budget may be exceeded if the resulting shares are
beneath `MIN_DISK_SPACE_FOR_BLOCK_FILES`.

+Pruning
+-------
+
+When using assumeutxo with `-prune`, the prune budget may be exceeded if it is set
+lower than 1100MB (i.e. `MIN_DISK_SPACE_FOR_BLOCK_FILES * 2`). Prune budget is normally
+split evenly across each chainstate, unless the resulting prune budget per chainstate
+is beneath `MIN_DISK_SPACE_FOR_BLOCK_FILES` in which case that value will be used.
