a0b4c24 Trivial: Fix validation comments (Dan Raviv)

Pull request description:

  - Move comment about transaction/block weight calculation so it applies not only to the GetBlockWeight function but also to GetTransactionWeight
  - Fix comment in validation.cpp referencing future deployment of BIP113. It has already been deployed.
  - The doc comment for BLOCK_DOWNLOAD_WINDOW wasn't updated since pruning was introduced, so it still refers to pruning as something that might happen in the future. A larger BLOCK_DOWNLOAD_WINDOW window would now, indeed, make pruning harder.
