Avoid undefined behavior using CFlatData in CScript serialization
`&vch[vch.size()]` and even `&vch[0]` on vectors can cause assertion errors with VC in debug mode. This is the problem mentioned in #4239. The deeper problem with this is that we rely on undefined behavior. - Add `begin_ptr` and `end_ptr` functions that get the beginning and end pointer of vector in a reliable way that copes with empty vectors and doesn't reference outside the vector (see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1339470/how-to-get-the-address-of-the-stdvector-buffer-start-most-elegantly/1339767#1339767). - Add a convenience constructor to CFlatData that wraps a vector. I added `begin_ptr` and `end_ptr` as separate functions as I imagine they will be useful in more places.
