Enhance and utilize database status flags
* Move is_local standalone field to status enum * Create VALID/INVALID flag pair * Create EXISTS/MISSING flag pair With these additional fields, we can be more intelligent with database loading and messages to the user. We now only warn once if a sync database does not exist and do not continue to try to load it once we have marked it as missing. The reason for the flags existing in pairs is so the unknown case can be represented. There should never be a time when both flags in the same group are true, but if they are both false, it represents the unknown case. Care is taken to always manipulate both flags at the same time.
