Move calculated constants from the top of src/headerssync.cpp into src/kernel/chainparams.cpp.
Instead of being hardcoded to mainnet parameters, HeadersSyncState can now vary depending on chain or test. (This means we can reset TARGET_BLOCKS back to the nice round number of 15'000).
Signet and testnets got new HeadersSyncParams constants through temporarily altering headerssync-params.py with corresponding GENESIS_TIME and MINCHAINWORK_HEADERS (based off defaultAssumeValid block height comments, corresponding to nMinimumChainWork). Regtest doesn't have a default assume valid block height, so the values are copied from Testnet 4. Since the constants only affect memory usage, and have very low impact unless dealing with a largely malicious chain, it's not that critical to keep updating them for non-mainnet chains.

Pull request description:
The Consensus Cleanup soft fork proposal includes enforcing that coinbase transactions set their
nLockTime field to the block height minus 1, as well as their nSequence such as to not disable the
timelock. If such a fork were to be activated by Bitcoin users, miners need to be ready to produce
compliant blocks at the risk of losing substantial amounts mining would-be invalid blocks. As miners
are unfamously slow to upgrade, it's good to make this change as early as possible.
Although Bitcoin Core's GBT implementation does not provide the `coinbasetxn` field, and mining
pool software crafts the coinbase on its own, updating the Bitcoin Core mining code is a first step
toward convincing pools to update their (often closed source) code. A possible followup is also to
introduce new fields to GBT. In addition, this first step also makes it possible to test future
Consensus Cleanup changes.
The commit making the change also updates a bunch of seemingly-unrelated tests. This is because those tests were asserting error messages based on the txid of transactions involved, and changing the coinbase transaction structure necessarily changes the txid of all tests' transactions.

The changes to the seemingly-unrelated RBF tests is because these tests assert an error message
which may vary depending on the txid of the transactions used in the test. This commit changes the
coinbase transaction structure and therefore impact the txid of transactions in all tests.
The change to the "Bad snapshot" error message in the assumeutxo functional test is because this
specific test case reads into the txid of the next transaction in the snapshot and asserts the error
message based it gets on deserializing this txid as a coin for the previous transaction. As this
commit changes this txid it impacts the deserialization error raised.

Pull request description:
The assumeutxo data for the fuzz target could change and invalidate the hash silently, preventing the fuzz target from reaching some code paths. Fix this by introducing a unit test which would break if the snapshot data the fuzz target relies on were to change.
In implementing this i noticed the height used for coins in the fuzz target is actually off-by-one (as if the first block in the created chain was the genesis but it's block `1`), so fix that too.

Rather than having the rule change period/threshold be constant for all
potential deployments on a chain, have it be specific to the deployment
itself. This both matches history (BIP 9 specified a 2016 block period
and 1916 block threshold; BIP 91 specified a 336 block period and 269
block threshold; and BIP 341 specified a 2016 block period and 1815
block threshold), and allows the code to be simplified, as only the
BIP9Deployment structure is needed, not the full Consensus::Params
structure.
The added regtest option -test=bip94 is only used in the functional
test for BIP94.
This is done because the default regtest consensus rules
should aim to follow to mainnet, not testnet.
The following scripted-diff commit will replace ParseHex("...") with "..."_hex_u8, but this replacement will not work in cases where vectors are needed instead of arrays, and is not ideal in cases where std::byte is accepted.
For example, it is currently necessary to use _hex_v_u8 when calling CScript operator<< because that operator does not currently support std::array or std::byte.
Conversely, it is incorrect to use _hex_v instead of _hex in net_processing.cpp for the MakeAndPushMessage argument, because if the argument is a std::vector it is considered variable-length and serialized with a size prefix, but if the argument is a std::array or Span is it considered fixed length and serialized without a prefix.
By the same logic, it is also safe to change the NUMS_H constant in pubkey.cpp from a std::vector to std::array because it is never serialized.

Pull request description:
`std::span` removed the comparison operators, so it makes sense to remove them for the `Span` "backport" as well. Using `std::ranges::equal` also has the benefit that some `Span` temporary constructions can now be dropped.
This is required to move from `Span` toward `std::span`.

It would be a good idea to test:
1. That you can produce the same snapshot file, sha256 sum:

chainparams.cpp - workaround for MSVC bug triggering C7595 - Calling consteval constructors in initializer lists fails, but works on GCC (13.2.0) & Clang (17.0.6).
Add the possibility of giving more guidance to the creation of the
metadata and/or coins, so that the fuzzer gets the chance
to reach more error conditions in ActivateSnapshot and sometimes
successfully creates a valid snapshot.
This also changes the asserts for the success case that were outdated,
and only didn't result in a crash because the fuzzer wasn't able
to reach this code before.

so that reviewers can easily spot if a spot was missed or if there is a
check somewhere whose semantics have changed.
