Simplify return values of GetCoin/HaveCoin(InCache)

This removes the possibility for GetCoin/HaveCoin/HaveCoinInCache to return
true while the respective coin is spent. By doing it across all calls, some
extra checks can be eliminated.

coins_tests is modified to call HaveCoin sometimes before and sometimes
after AccessCoin. A further change is needed because the semantics for
GetCoin slightly changed, causing a pruned entry in the parent cache to not
be pulled into the child in FetchCoin.
