Merge #13424: Consistently validate txid / blockhash length and encoding in rpc calls

5eb20f81d9 Consistently use ParseHashV to validate hash inputs in rpc (Ben Woosley)

Pull request description:

  ParseHashV validates the length and encoding of the string and throws
  an informative RPC error on failure, which is as good or better than
  these alternative calls.

  Note I switched ParseHashV to check string length first, because
  IsHex tests that the length is even, and an error like:
  "must be of length 64 (not 63, for X)" is much more informative than
  "must be hexadecimal string (not X)" in that case.

  Split from #13420
