Pull request description:
This is a more involved PR than I'd expected but hopefully the individual commits make sense and are well-motivated. Essentially, my goal was to replace `MtpAndHeight` as used by relative locktimes with a pair of `Mtp` and `Height`.
However, relative locktimes, when given a MTP/Height for the UTXO creation and the chain tip, are roughly modeled as "take a diff of MTPs to get a `relative::MtpInterval`, a diff of heights to get a `relative::HeightInterval`, and compare to the locktimes". *However*, we have no standalone MTP type to "take a diff of", and also there are failure modes when creating the diffs (e.g. if the diff would exceed the range of `MtpInterval` or `HeightInterval`).
So I backed up and decided to use the existing `BlockHeight`/`BlockInterval` as the type to "take a diff of". I needed to introduce a `BlockMtp`/`BlockMtpInterval` to work with MTPs. These types have full-u32 range, unlike the similarly-named types in `units::locktimes::absolute`. I then needed to add some conversion methods. Along the way, I cleaned up the APIs and documentation, added checked arithmetic, etc., as needed.
See the individual commit messages for more detail.
I believe the resulting API is much more consistent and discoverable, even though it has more surface than the old API.
I considered splitting this into 2 PRs but I think the first half of the changes aren't well-motivated with out the second half. Let me know.
