Apply hotfix for inconsistent head (#1639)
## Issue Addressed
- Resolves #1616
## Proposed Changes
If we look at the function which persists fork choice and the canonical head to disk:
1db8daae0c/beacon_node/beacon_chain/src/beacon_chain.rs (L234-L280)
There is a race-condition which might cause the canonical head and fork choice values to be out-of-sync.
I believe this is the cause of #1616. I managed to recreate the issue and produce a database that was unable to sync under the `master` branch but able to sync with this branch.
These new changes solve the issue by ignoring the persisted `canonical_head_block_root` value and instead getting fork choice to generate it. This ensures that the canonical head is in-sync with fork choice.
## Additional Info
This is hotfix method that leaves some crusty code hanging around. Once this PR is merged (to satisfy the v0.2.x users) we should later update and merge #1638 so we can have a clean fix for the v0.3.x versions.
