Merge #12367: Fix two fast-shutdown bugs

dd2de47 Fix fast-shutdown crash if genesis block was not loaded (Matt Corallo)
1c9394a Fix fast-shutdown hang on ThreadImport+GenesisWait (Matt Corallo)

Pull request description:

  The second commit is a much simpler alternative fix for the issue fixed in #12349. To test I made ShutdownRequested() always StartShutdown() after a certain number of calls, which turned up one other hang, fixed in the first commit.
