consensus_encoding: API updates
What changed, and why it matters
This commit is a routine API snapshot update. It only changes a generated text file that lists public API signatures, reflecting that some Encoder trait implementations no longer take a lifetime parameter. No actual source code, logic, or security behavior changed.
No action needed; this is not a security-relevant change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff updates api/units/all-features.txt, an auto-generated public-API listing. Four Encoder impls for BlockHeight, LockTime, Sequence, and BlockTime moved from a lifetime-parameterized form (impl<’e> Encoder<’e>) to a non-parameterized form (impl Encoder). This is a cosmetic/API-shape change, not a code or security fix.
