The test which is intended to prove that the script engine is properly rejecting non-minimally encoded PUSHDATA4 data is using the wrong opcode and value. The test is using 0x4f, which is OP_1NEGATE instead of the desired 0x4e, which is OP_PUSHDATA4. Further, the push of data is intended to be 256 bytes, but the value the test is using is 0x00100000 (4096), instead of the desired 0x00010000 (256).

This pull request fixes both issues.

This was found while examining the branch coverage in btcd against only these tests to help find missing branch coverage.
