Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#23142: Return false on corrupt tx rather than asserting

0ab4c3b27265401c59e40adc494041927dc9dbe3 Return false on corrupt tx rather than asserting (Samuel Dobson)

Pull request description:

  Takes up #19793

  Rather than asserting, we log an error and return CORRUPT so that the user is informed. This type of error isn't critical so it isn't worth `assert`ing.

There may be room for more improvements later like better error messages or easier recovery options, but changing from an assert to an error seems like a clear improvement, and this seems to avoid all the pitfalls of the last PR that tried this.
