chain: wait for bitcoind to finish loading blocks during startup

We sometimes see this error in test,
```
--- FAIL: TestBitcoindEvents (7.72s)
    --- FAIL: TestBitcoindEvents/Events_via_RPC_Polling (1.00s)
        bitcoind_events_test.go:480:
            	Error Trace:	/home/runner/work/btcwallet/btcwallet/chain/bitcoind_events_test.go:480
            	            				/home/runner/work/btcwallet/btcwallet/chain/bitcoind_events_test.go:49
            	Error:      	Received unexpected error:
            	            	-28: Loading block index…
            	Test:       	TestBitcoindEvents/Events_via_RPC_Polling
FAIL
```
which can also happen in real life if `bitcoind` is still loading
blocks. This commit adds a retry logic to wait for `bitcoind` to finish
its startup.
