4621e7cc8f test: refactor: Rename extra_txn to const empty_extra_txn as it is empty in all test cases (AngusP)
Pull request description:
This test uses the `extra_txn` (`vExtraTxnForCompact`) vector of optional orphan/conflicted/etc. transactions to provide transactions to a PartiallyDownloadedBlock that are not otherwise present in the mempool, and check that they are used.
This also covers a former nullptr deref bug that was fixed in #29752 (bf031a517c) where the `extra_txn` vec/circular-buffer was null-initialized and not yet filled when dereferenced in `PartiallyDownloadedBlock::InitData`.

refactor: CBlockHeaderAndShortTxIDs constructor now always takes an explicit nonce.
test: Make blockencodings_tests deterministic using fixed seed providing deterministic
CBlockHeaderAndShortTxID nonces and dummy transaction IDs.
Fixes very rare flaky test failures, where the ShortIDs of test transactions collide, leading to
`READ_STATUS_FAILED` from PartiallyDownloadedBlock::InitData and/or `IsTxAvailable` giving `false`
when the transaction should actually be available.
* Use a new `FastRandomContext` with a fixed seed in each test, to ensure 'random' uint256s
used as fake prevouts are deterministic, so in-turn test txids and short IDs are deterministic
and don't collide causing very rare but flaky test failures.
* Add new test-only/internal initializer for `CBlockHeaderAndShortTxIDs` that takes a specified
nonce to further ensure determinism and avoid rare but undesireable short ID collisions.
In a test context this nonce is set to a fixed known-good value. Normally it is random, as
previously.
Flaky test failures can be reproduced with:

```
All `CTransactionRef` have `.GetWitnessHash()` that returns a cached `const Wtxid` (since fac1223a56),
so we don't need to pass transaction refs around with their IDs as they're easy to get from a ref.
