Nice addition! Mostly straight forward to follow, though I'm concerned that the equality check is done using pointers, rather than the value itself. Eg: if we make a new instance or copy of otherNode (that's already in the index, and is an ancestor of node), then from my reading we'll return false, when we should return true.

Looks good once laolu's comments addressed. One nit in the test
Helper function for the added IsAncestor in the follow up commit. Returns true if all the fields (except for parent and ancestor) are equal.
IsAncestor() provides functionality for testing if a block node is an ancestor of anther block node.

Cherry-picked from 0d6a93e687e3470608cccfc58cc4a2ddb5ea8262.
It's a part of #2154 as this method is used in utreexod code for testing invalidateblock and reconsiderblock methods on blockchain.
