Pull request description:

  Consensus code should arrive at the same conclusion, regardless of the architecture it runs on. Using architecture-specific types such as `size_t` can lead to issues, such as the low-severity [CVE-2025-46597](https://bitcoincore.org/en/2025/10/24/disclose-cve-2025-46597/).

  The CVE was already worked around, but it may be good to still fix the underlying issue.

  Fixes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/33709 with a few refactors to use explicit fixed-sized integer types in serialization-size related code and concluding with a refactor to return `uint64_t` from `GetSerializeSize`. The refactors should not change any behavior, because the CVE was already worked around.

src/node/

The src/node/ directory contains code that needs to access node state (state in CChain, CBlockIndex, CCoinsView, CTxMemPool, and similar classes).

Code in src/node/ is meant to be segregated from code in src/wallet/ and src/qt/, to ensure wallet and GUI code changes don't interfere with node operation, to allow wallet and GUI code to run in separate processes, and to perhaps eventually allow wallet and GUI code to be maintained in separate source repositories.

As a rule of thumb, code in one of the src/node/, src/wallet/, or src/qt/ directories should avoid calling code in the other directories directly, and only invoke it indirectly through the more limited src/interfaces/ classes.

This directory is at the moment sparsely populated. Eventually more substantial files like src/validation.cpp and src/txmempool.cpp might be moved there.
