Pull request description:
As discussed in issue #3575 there are various ways of saying a new object is created.
These have all be standardized to the agreed version.

There is a range of different wordings used in the docs of constructor
type functions.
Change all to start with `Constructs a new` or `Constructs an empty`.
In functions that act like constructors there is a mixture of the usage
of `creates` and `constructs`.
Replace all occurrences of `creates` with `constructs` in the first line
of docs of constructor like functions.
The version 1.63 satisfies our requirements for MSRV and provides
significant benefits so this commit bumps it. This commit also starts
using some advantages of the new MSRV, namely namespaced features, weak
dependencies and the ability to use trait bounds in `const` context.
This however does not yet migrade the `rand-std` feature because that
requires a release of `secp256k1` with the same kind of change - bumping
MSRV to 1.63 and removing `rand-std` in favor of weak dependency.
The `Params` struct is currently defined in the `consensus` module which
has become a collection of orthogonal consensus-ish things. We would
like to put things in more descriptive places.
The `Params` struct defines constants that are network specific so it
makes sense to put it in the `network` module. As soft proof of this
argument note in this patch how often the `Params` type is imported
along with the `Network` type.
API break:
The type is no longer available at `bitcoin::consensus::Params` but
rather is re-exported at `bitcoin::network::Params`.
The `network` module deals with data types and logic related to
internetworking bitcoind nodes, this is commonly referred to as the p2p
layer.
Rename the `network` module to `p2p` and fix all the paths.
Currently we have a mishmash of attribution lines accompanying the SPDX
identifier. These lines are basically meaningless because:
- The date is often wrong
- The original author attributed is not the only contributor to a file
- The term "rust bitcoin developers" is basically just noise
Just remove all the attribution lines and be done with it. While we are
at it add an SPDX line to the few files missing it, whether this license
nonsense is even needed is left as an argument for another day.
If we use `#![cfg_attr(docsrs, feature(doc_auto_cfg))]` instead of
`#![cfg_attr(docsrs, feature(doc_cfg))]` we no longer need to manually
mark types with `#[cfg_attr(docsrs, doc(cfg(feature = "std")))]`.
Sweeeeeet.
We just removed the `bitcoin/src/network/` exclude from `rustfmt` config
file. Run the command `cargo +nightly fmt`.
No other changes than those introduced by `rustfmt`.
Create a directory `bitcoin` and move into it the following as is with
no code changes:
- src
- Cargo.toml
- contrib
- test_data
- examples
Then do:
- Add a workspace to the repository root directory.
- Add the newly created `bitcoin` crate to the workspace.
- Exclude `fuzz` and `embedded` crates from the workspace.
- Add a contrib/test.sh script that runs contrib/test.sh in each
sub-crate
- Fix the bitcoin/contrib/test.sh script
