Fix block connection ordering in a number of functional tests
Many functional tests rely on being able to call block_connected
arbitrarily, jumping back in time to confirm a transaction at a
specific height. Instead, this takes us one step towards having a
well-formed blockchain in the functional tests.
We also take this opportunity to reduce the number of blocks
connected during tests, requiring a number of constant tweaks in
various functional tests.
