This PR prevents the network from having runaway checkpoints if they are for some reason not being confirmed on Bitcoin (for example, there was a standardness or validity issue, fees were too low, relayers are having issues relaying the confirmations which is incorrectly driving up the fee rate, the Bitcoin network is having issues, etc.). We now properly reflect the issues by not processing transfers until the checkpoints can be confirmed.
