Add functional tests for the BIP-370 lock time derivation

Since the signed locktime is never displayed, the tests use an
indirect method to verify that the app is computing the correct
value: recomputing the sighash with an independent Python
implementation, and verifying if the produced Schnorr signature
passes for that message.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only adds new automated tests for how the Ledger Bitcoin app chooses a transaction's lock time when signing a PSBTv2. It does not change the app's actual signing code. The tests verify that the app derives the expected lock time and rejects malformed or contradictory inputs. There is no security patch here.

Recommended action

No action required; this is a test-only addition. Reviewers may optionally confirm the test vectors align with BIP-370 and that the existing signing implementation already handles the tested edge cases.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
