> [mempool] check ancestor/descendant limits for packages
>
> When calculating ancestor/descendant counts for transactions in the
> package, as a heuristic, count every transaction in the package as an
> ancestor and descendant of every other transaction in the package.
>
> This may overestimate, but will not underestimate, the
> ancestor/descendant counts. This shortcut still produces an accurate
> count for packages of 1 parent + 1 child.

Notes;
- `tx.rehash()` replaced with `tx.get_id()`
- used helper functions `ToHex` and `FromHex`. `tx_from_hex` is not available due to missing backports.
- our limit for number of transactions in a package is 50. This leads to some minor logical differences in the tests, because where Core uses 24 transactions (an even number) we use 49 (an odd number). This leads to some asymetric chain transactions branches where the source material has symetric branches, and vice-versa.

This concludes backport of core#21800
