Document source of logic fro read_scriptint

Our `script::read_scriptint` function is based on the constructor
code (incl. call to `set_vch`) code from Bitcoin Core. Add rustdoc
comment saying so, emit a link because there are already multiple links
to `script.h` in this file (one just right below the added comment).
