[avalanche] pass the processor to Chainstate::AvalancheFinalizeBlock

Summary

Pass a reference rather than a pointer, so that this function only ever gets called if there is an avalanche processor initialized.

This concludes the removal of g_avalanche access in Chainstate functions.

Depends on D16313

Test Plan

You need to update isAvalancheEnabled to include the nullptr check. This is actually never null but this will prevent introducing bugs as we go because of that assumption

OK. But in this place nothing is being done with g_avalanche, so this particular callsite does not lead to potential bugs.

rebase on D16313 (now we can rely on the processor pointer to determine if avalanche is enabled)

This looks like a place where you want to use a reference. Calling this function makes no sense if avalanche is disabled, so you want to check at callsite and not call this at all if avalanche is disabled.

If avalanche is null this log is useless

pass a reference. This happens in a scope in which we have the guarantee that avalanche is initialized.

Initialize a couple of processors in tests, where this function is called.
