Merge #14039: Disallow extended encoding for non-witness transactions

bb530efa18 Disallow extended encoding for non-witness transactions (Pieter Wuille)

Pull request description:

  BIP144 specifies that transactions without witness should use the legacy encoding, which is currently not enforced.

  This rule was present in the original SegWit implementation (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8149), but was subsequently dropped (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8589).

  As all hashes, txids, and weights are always computed over a reserialized version of a transaction, it is mostly harmless to permit extended encoding for non-segwit transactions, but I'd rather strictly follow the BIP.
