[tests] Check connectivity before sending in assumevalid.py

assumevalid.py would try to send over a closed P2P connection in a loop,
hitting the following failure many times:

TestFramework.mininode (ERROR): Cannot send message. No connection to node!

The test still passes, but this is a lot of noise in the test log.

Just check that the connection is open before trying to send.
