This PR addresses testnet instability issues by implementing robust block cache management and validation mechanisms in the staged stream synchronization process. The changes focus on preventing data corruption and ensuring reliable block synchronization across the network. It removes unused cache functionality in the stage block hashes component. This simplification helps reduce the complexity of the caching system and makes the code more maintainable. It introduces comprehensive validation for block hashes stored in the cache before they are used during synchronization. The PR implements automatic cleanup of block caches when block data is detected as corrupted or not properly saved. This self-healing mechanism ensures that when data integrity issues are detected, the system can recover by clearing the problematic cache entries and allowing fresh data to be fetched. This prevents the accumulation of bad data that could cause persistent synchronization issues.
