// - Snap sync is selected if the pivot block is available. The earliest available
// state is the pivot block itself, so there is no sense in going further back.
//
// - Full sync is selected if the pivot block does not exist. The hash database
// periodically flushes the state to disk, and the used searching threshold is
// considered sufficient to find a persistent state, even for the testnet. It
// might be not enough for a chain that is nearly empty. In the worst case,
// the entire chain is reset to genesis, and snap sync is re-enabled on top,
// which is still acceptable.
