This change deletes bad blocks at migration time, since we don't need
to keep historical bad blocks and if not transformed like the other migrated
blocks can lead to panics when trying to load them (which happens when
a new bad block is discovered).
I've tested this locally, by taking a datdir where bad blocks could be
retrieved via
geth db get 0x496e76616c6964426c6f636b
and migratedit and verified that then the bad blocks cannot be retrieved which looks like this.
Since the key is not present.
