The `CoinbaseData` parses the block height separately from the rest of the
free-form coinbase data. However, it had two bugs:
1. It did not require that the height was canonically encoded;
2. Its canonical encoding was incorrect relative to the BIP34-inherited encoding.
This meant that we computed some transaction hashes incorrectly, because when
we re-serialized the coinbase transaction, we would canonically serialize the
coinbase transaction (using the incorrect definition of canonical, bug 2). And
we didn't notice that the wrong definition of canonical encoding was being used
because we accepted what we thought were non-canonically encoded heights.
