Function FindFilesToPrune

src/validation.cpp:3961–4015

* Prune block and undo files (blk???.dat and undo???.dat) so that the disk space used is less than a user-defined target. * The user sets the target (in MB) on the command line or in config file. This will be run on startup and whenever new * space is allocated in a block or undo file, staying below the target. Changing back to unpruned requires a reindex * (which in this case means the blockc

 * @param[out]   setFilesToPrune   The set of file indices that can be unlinked will be returned
