Describe the bug
cast mktx --help does not mention --raw-unsigned flag as a feature, maybe it should be added here.
Along with that, this is what i wish to achieve using foundry tools

I understood that, from the raw rlp transaction here, we can sign it using cast wallet sign <hash(raw unsigned txn)> (making sure the --from address is same as the account signed with), append this signature to the raw tx, and directly publish the txn using cast publish
I was in the impression that this flow will work, but i tried to verify the signed tx using cast mktx without --raw-unsigned flag for the same transaction data, and the bytes did not match
Is there some gaps in my understanding? Would greatly appreciate help here.
