3f863cfff1ec902454d64f82b12eb09bdb1eee04 contrib: refactor: simplify block header string routine in linearize-data.py (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
This PR simplifies the linearization scripts `linearize-data.py` and `linearize-hashes.py` by replacing overly complicated cruft (block header hash string calculation, hex string reverse) with means of the Python3 standard library.
