Have createNewBlock return BlockTemplate interface
An external program that uses the Mining interface may need quick access to some information in the block template, while it can wait a bit longer for the full raw transaction data.

This would be the case for a Stratum v2 Template Provider which needs to send a NewTemplate message (which doesn't include transactions) as quickly as possible.
