It turns out that we often save lots of states in the database that are the result of empty slot processing only - here, we make sure to only save a state if a block follows - this fixes several issues: * empty slot states are not always pruned leading to state database size explosion * storing states is (very) slow which slows down processing in general, so we should only do it when it's likely to be useful * attestation processing doesn't get stuck on saving random states that won't appear in the chain history
