    core: ensure txindex will be triggered at least once (#27847) · 7c0d90c8
    Delweng authored
    Currently, we trigger the logic to (un)index transactions when the node receives a new
    block. However, in some cases the node may not receive new blocks (eg, when the Geth node
    is configured without peer discovery, or when it acts as an RPC node for historical-only
    data).
    
    In these situations, the Geth node user may not have previously configured txlookuplimit
    (i.e. the default of around one year), but later realizes they need to index all
    historical blocks. However, adding txlookuplimit=0 and restarting geth has no effect. This
    change makes it check for required indexing work once, on startup, to fix the issue.
