Move hash types and LeafVersion to taproot-primitives

The hash types and LeafVersion enums are required by functionality in
the crypto crate. In order to facilitate the further separation of
logic into the crypto crate, these types need to be split from the
bitcoin crate.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a routine code reorganization: it moves Taproot hash types (like TapLeafHash, TapNodeHash, TapTweakHash) and the LeafVersion enum from the main bitcoin crate into a new taproot-primitives crate. The bitcoin crate then re-exports these types so existing users see no change. There is no security fix or behavior change visible in the diff.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as normal refactoring; verify downstream crates compile and tests pass after the dependency split.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
