internals: Make compact_size::MAX_ENCODING_SIZE public
I would like to use this const in `consensus_encoding`.
What changed, and why it matters
This commit simply changes the visibility of a constant named MAX_ENCODING_SIZE from internal-only to public. It does not alter any behavior, logic, or data handling. There is no security issue here.
No action needed. This is a benign visibility-only change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
A single-line visibility change: const MAX_ENCODING_SIZE: usize = 9; becomes pub const MAX_ENCODING_SIZE: usize = 9;. The value remains 9. No code behavior changes; this is an API-exporting refactor to allow reuse in consensus_encoding.
