Add reindex=auto flag to automatically reindex corrupt data

Browse Source 
This PR allows the reindex flag to be set to auto, which automatically starts a reindex if the chain state or block index are corrupt.
This can be especially useful for  Raspberry Pi based full nodes, which often experience power outages or similar issues which can corrupt data.
It allows full node operators to make Bitcoin Core reindex automatically, without having to worry about removing the reindex flag again. (Which isn't much effort, but can be annoying to forget)
