This builds off the score index added in #6898 and uses it to caculate the set of txin hashes that are most likely to be needed in upcoming blocks. Then when FlushStateToDisk writes the cache from pcoinsTip to the database, it'll leave the coins corresponding to these hashes in the cache.

Add a score index to the mempool.
The score index is meant to represent the order of priority for being included in a block for miners. Initially this is set to the transactions fee rate.

oops. bug fix pushed. EDIT: nm, I just confused myself.
I still haven't been able to demonstrate that this works as expected. It doesn't seem that populating the cache or checking it is too computationally expensive. However it doesn't seem to lead to much of a performance boost, so I need to do more benchmarking.
