Merge #14085: index: Fix for indexers skipping genesis block.

ed12d5df1ba52b5ef3dd3799de26bb5e1d3fc654 index: Fix for indexers skipping genesis block. (Jim Posen)

Pull request description:

  This fixes a bug where indexers would skip processing of the genesis block. Preserves the current behavior of omitting genesis block transaction from the index.
