Pull request description:

  * This PR attempts to fix the duplicate coinbase weight reservation issue we currently have.
  * Fixes #21950

  We reserve 4000 weight units for coinbase transaction in `DEFAULT_BLOCK_MAX_WEIGHT`

  7590e93bc7/src/policy/policy.h (L23)

  And also reserve additional `4000` weight units in the default `BlockCreationOptions` struct.

  7590e93bc7/src/node/types.h (L36-L40)

  **Motivation**

  - This issue was first noticed during a review here https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11100#discussion_r136157411)
  - It was later reported in issue #21950.
  - I also came across the bug while writing a test for building the block template. I could not create a block template above `3,992,000` in the block assembler, and this was not documented anywhere. It took me a while to realize that we were reserving space for the coinbase transaction weight twice.

  ---
  This PR fixes this by consolidating the reservation to be in a single location in the codebase.

  This PR then adds a new startup option `-blockreservedweight` whose default is `8000` that can be used to lower or increase the block reserved weight for block header, txs count, coinbase tx.
