Replace uses of encode_to_engine with encode_to_hash

There are a couple of uses of encode_to_engine that follow the trivial
pattern and can be replaced with encode_to_hash.

Replace appropriate uses of encode_to_engine in sighash and primitives
with encode_to_hash to simplify the code.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This is a small internal code cleanup in the rust-bitcoin library. It replaces a slightly longer two-step hashing pattern with a shorter helper function that does the same thing. The actual cryptographic results and behavior are unchanged.

Recommended action

No security action needed. Treat as a normal refactoring/code-quality change.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
