Just to be clear: this PR breaks transaction pool on light client => there'll be a follow-up PR that should fix submitting transactions using light client. But probably better not to mix everything in a single PR, just because there going to be more fix-light-client PRs anyway:

Quote from #3480 (see description for details):
So the general idea is to:
Clientbackend to work only with local database && fail withNotAvailableOnLightClientif it requires some data from remote node. Initially I thought about slightly different approach (which is implemented now), whereClientitself would fallback to fetch-from-remote if anything isn't available locally. But this won't work from within executor threads. This will be fixed in follow-up PRs - it is going to be a quite large change, though mostly removing lines/code dependencies, etc
