[bisq-network/bisq] Show warning if user has a pruned Bitcoin node locally running (#3273)

[chimp1984]

BitcoinJ requires a non-pruned Bitcoin node. We get frequently issues that users who don't know that run into problems. We should find a way to detect if a local node is running in pruned mode and if so show a popup to tell the user to either shut down that pruned node and connect to the provided bitcoin nodes or change their pruned node to a non-pruned node. 
Related is that a Bitcoin node cannot be used while it is syncing with the network. Not sure if that can be detected.

If there is no way to detect pruned mode from Bisq (we cannot use RPC for that), we could use the special exceptions thrown in BitcoinJ to catch those and react on those to show a popup.
