p2p: Move merkle_tree module errors to error submodule

At present, some modules in p2p separate error types into submodules
with re-exports while others simply define the error types in the
module. This inconsistency is confusing and makes the docs vary.
All error types for each top-level module should be moved into a
relevant submodule and re-exported without inline docs.

Move error types from merkle_tree module into error submodule and
re-export.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a straightforward internal code reorganization. It moves three error types (MerkleBlockDecoderError, PartialMerkleTreeDecoderError, and MerkleBlockError) from the main merkle_tree module into a new error submodule and re-exports them. There is no change to how the code behaves, no bug fix, and no security improvement or regression.

Recommended action

No security action needed. Treat as a normal maintainability refactor.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
