Pull request description:

  Motivated by https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11913#discussion_r157798157, this pull makes `blockToJSON` and `blockheaderToJSON` free of `cs_main` locks.

  Locking `cs_main` was required to access `chainActive` in order to check if the block was in the chain and to retrieve the next block index.

  With the this approach, `CBlockIndex::GetAncestor()` is used in a way to check if the block belongs to the specified chain tip and, at the same time, get the next block index.
