fix(protocol): always expect & validate block hash in requests (#10738)

Verify that block requests have a hash and that it's correct. This helps
prevent certain races and ensure that only expected data is ever
returned in response to a request.

(In Syncthing prior to 1.28.1 the block hash was omitted for encrypted
requests from trusted devices. This breaks compatibility with that
specific config on those versions.)
