63c2d83 Explicitly state assumption that state.m_chain_sync.m_work_header != nullptr in ConsiderEviction (practicalswift)

Pull request description:

  Explicitly state assumption that `state.m_chain_sync.m_work_header != nullptr` in `ConsiderEviction(…)`.

  Static analyzer (and humans!) will see the null-check in ...

  ```
  else if (state.m_chain_sync.m_timeout == 0 || (state.m_chain_sync.m_work_header != nullptr && ...
  ```

  ... and infer that `state.m_chain_sync.m_work_header` might be set to `nullptr` when reaching `else if (state.m_chain_sync.m_timeout > 0 && time_in_seconds > state.m_chain_sync.m_timeout)` and thus flag `state.m_chain_sync.m_work_header->GetBlockHash().ToString()` as a potential null pointer dereference.

  This commit makes the tacit assumption of `state.m_chain_sync.m_work_header != nullptr` explicit.

  Code introduced in 5a6d00c6de ("Permit disconnection of outbound peers on bad/slow chains") which was merged into master four days ago.

  Friendly ping @sdaftuar :-)
