Feature: Instruction can read the script number

[junderw]

This new method on Instruction will allow for interpreting the Instruction as a script number (i64)

[apoelstra]

Looks good! But we have an existing read_scriptint function that I think can do the PushBytes case. (Or did you check that it wasn't applicable for some reason?)

Could you also add a unit test for a couple negative zeros :}?

[apoelstra]

Ok, c7ff61d looks good now! But what do you think of renaming read_scriptint_internal to read_scriptint_nonminimal?

[junderw]

Should I expose it publicly?

In which case, we'd still want the > 4 byte check for both.

[apoelstra]

@junderw yeah, I think it should be exposed publicly.

[junderw]

Should be good for re-review now.

If tests pass, this is ready for re-review

Ouch, CI fail is linter because if v.len() == 0 should be if v.is_empty().

Scond time this week my review suggestions have failed to build, bad robot.

Thanks for working in my suggestions, appreciate the extra effort.

You mean lint* not build ;)
