Bitcoin Core <0.21 compatibility

See original GitHub issue

The recently added support for txindex-less nodes uses getindexinfo to determine if txindex is enabled or not, which did not exists prior to Bitcoin Core v0.21.

Is this acceptable, or would you like to find a way to support older Bitcoin Core releases too?

@pointbiz Awesome, thanks for testing on 0.19.1! I agree - I like the known-tx-lookup concept and will plan that for the next update (keeping this open to track that).

This could theoretically try to lookup a txid that is known to exists to determine if txindex is available or not. But I think that only supporting pruned nodes in v0.21+ is a reasonable choice.

I did notice you were working on v3 – congrats for getting it merged, looks like you did some great work there! 🎉 🚀
