wallet: Make CWalletTx "replaces_txid" and "replaced_by_txid" member variables

Instead of storing "replaces_txid" and "replaced_by_txid" as strings inside of
mapValue, store these expliclty as members of CWalletTx.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a small internal cleanup in Bitcoin Core's wallet code. It moves two pieces of transaction metadata—'replaces_txid' and 'replaced_by_txid'—from a loose string-based key/value map into properly typed member variables of the CWalletTx class. The values are still saved to and loaded from the wallet database in the same way, so there is no user-visible behavior change. It is a refactoring change, not a security fix.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as normal code maintenance. Reviewers may optionally verify that the serialization round-trip preserves existing wallet database semantics.

Security signals we found

01

No security-relevant logic change
