index: deduplicate Hash / Height handling

The code was largely duplicated between coinstatsindex
and blockfilterindex.
Deduplicate it by moving it to a shared file.

slight change in behavior: the index name is no longer
part of the error msg in case of (un)serialization errors.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a routine code cleanup: it moves duplicated database-key handling code shared by two Bitcoin Core indexes into one shared header file. The actual behavior is essentially unchanged, except that a couple of error messages now say 'index' generically instead of naming the specific index. There is no security fix or vulnerability here.

Recommended action

No security action needed; treat as normal refactoring.

Security signals we found
