init: Correct coins db cache size setting

The chainstate caches are currently re-balanced on startup even in the non-assumeutxo case, leading to the database being needlessly re-opened and its cache re-allocated.

Similar to InitCoinsCache and m_coinstip_cache_size_bytes, the m_coinsdb_cache_size_bytes should be set in InitCoinsDB.

Together with only conservatively setting the cache values when a assumeutxo chainstate is present, this allows for skipping the cache re-balance during initialization in the normal non-assumeutxo case.
