Merge bitcoin#23325: mempool: delete exists(uint256) function
4307849 [mempool] delete exists(uint256) function (glozow)
d50fbd4 create explicit GenTxid::{Txid, Wtxid} ctors (glozow)
Pull request description:
We use the same type for txids and wtxids, `uint256`. In places where we want the ability to pass either one, we distinguish them using `GenTxid`.
The (overloaded) `CTxMemPool::exists()` function is defined as follows:
```c
bool exists(const uint256& txid) const { return exists(GenTxid{false, txid}); }
```
It always assumes that a uint256 is a txid, which is a footgunny interface.
Querying by wtxid returns a false negative if the transaction has a witness. 🐛
Another approach would be to try both:
```c
bool exists(const uint256& txid) const { return exists(GenTxid{false, txid}) || exists(GenTxid{false, txid}); }
```
But that's slower and wrongfully placing the burden on the callee; the caller always knows whether the hash is a txid or a wtxid.
