test: improve coverage for a resolved stalling situation

This test (which would fail without the previous commit) checks
that after the stalling block was received, we don't incorrectly
mark another peer as a staller immediately.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only changes a test file. It adds a new test scenario to make sure a previously fixed bug in block-download stalling logic stays fixed. There is no change to the actual Bitcoin Core node software, so it cannot directly affect live network security.

Recommended action

No security action required. Review the preceding commit to confirm the actual stalling fix is sound, since this commit only adds test coverage for it.

Security signals we found

01

Regression test for stalling logic

02

No production code changes

03
