Merge #17746: refactor: rpc: Remove vector copy from listtransactions

25bc17fceb08ee9625c5e09e2579117ec6f7a1c5 refactor: rpc: Remove vector copy from listtransactions (João Barbosa)

Pull request description:

  Current approach
   - copy accumulated `ret` vector to `arrTmp`
   - drop unnecessary elements from `arrTmp`
   - reverse `arrTmp`
   - clear `ret`
   - copy `arrTmp` to the `ret`

  New approach
   - create a vector from the accumulated `ret` with just the necessary elements already reversed
   - copy it to the result

  This PR doesn't change behavior.
