9272d70 Support serializing Span<unsigned char> and use that instead of FLATDATA (Pieter Wuille)
833bc08 Add Slice: a (pointer, size) array view that acts like a container (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
Introduce a new data type `Span`, which is an encapsulated pointer + size (like C++20's `std::span` or LevelDB's `Slice`), and represents a view to a sequence of objects laid out continuously in memory.
The immediate use case is replacing the remaining `FLATDATA` invocations. Instead of those, we support serializing/deserializing unsigned char `Span`s (treating them as arrays).
A longer term goal for `Span`s is making the script execution operate on them rather than on `CScript` itself. This will allow separate storage mechanisms for scripts.
