Change Details

> This adds the (internal) Wrapper class, and the Using function that uses it. Given > a class F that implements Ser(stream, const object&) and Unser(stream, object&) > functions, this permits writing e.g. READWRITE(Using<F>(object)). This is a backport of Core [[https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17896 | PR17896]] [1/3] https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/17896/commits/ca62563df341786d1d1809a037d8b592924e78c4

PR description: > This introduces a const-correct generic approach for serializing objects using custom > serializers (defined separately from the object being serialized), then converts VARINT > to use that approach, and then converts chain.h to the new framework (including > the new const-correct VARINT macro).
