Sia renterd overrided old consensus folder

[cmdntd]

Current Behavior

I tried to save consensus folder to load renterd faster with backups.
But it overrided old consensus folder, and loads from beginning.

Expected Behavior

How could renterd read old consesus folder to make it faster at beginning?

Steps to Reproduce

1. Old consensus, data, slab
2. Run sia from docker with volume to old folder
3. It deletes old files, and loads from beginning

Version

1ed897e

What operating system did the problem occur on (e.g. Ubuntu 22.04, macOS 12.0, Windows 11)?

docker:master

Anything else?

I remember it not to delete old consensus at former versions.

[mike76-dev]

renterd has switched to the new consensus database, which also contains the Merkle proofs for each block. This is done in the preparation for the upcoming hardfork. For this reason, renterd needs to resync from the beginning.

[cmdntd]

When did it switch to? That means I could save new consensus for future, doesn't it?
My old consensus have just been saved a few days ago.

Closing this since it's expected behavior starting from v1.1.0.

@cmdntd yes, you can save the new consensus now like you did the old one.
