Should we replace the Double SHA256 with a Single SHA256? There is no
possible length extension attack here. Or are we speculating that there is
a robustness of Double SHA256 in the presence of SHA256 breaking?
I suggest putting `sigversion` at the beginning instead of the end of the
format. Because its value is constant, the beginning of the SHA-256
computation could be pre-computed in advance. Furthermore, if we make the
`sigversion` exactly 64-bytes long then the entire first block of the
SHA-256 compression function could be pre-computed.
Can we add CHECKSIGFROMSTACK or do you think that would go into a separate
BIP?
