Pull request description:

  In the course of coming up with a test plan for #23280, I thought it would be neat to include a Python snippet showing how I tested the initialization process. I quickly realized I was reinventing the functional test framework... so here's a new test.

  This change bangs init around like the Fonz hitting a jukebox. It adds some interesting (read: lazy and random) coverage for the initialization process by
  - interrupting init with SIGTERM after certain log statements,
  - interrupting init at random points, and
  - starting init with some essential data missing (block files, block indices, etc.) to test init error paths.

  As far as I can tell, some of these code paths are uncovered otherwise (namely the startup errors).

  ---

  Incidentally, I think I may have uncovered some kind of a bug or race condition with indexing initialization based on an intermittent failure in this testcase. This test sometimes fails after shutting down immediately after `loadblk` thread start:
  ```

    ------> [[ FAILURE HERE ]] 2021-10-15T21:15:21.626000Z TestFramework (WARNING): missed line {bail_line}; bailing now after {num_lines} lines
  ```
  and then fails to start up afterwards. Combined logs showing `Error: txindex best block of the index goes beyond pruned data`, when the node under test is not pruned:

  ```
