Pull request description:
`Span` has some issues:
* It does not support fixed-size spans, which are available through `std::span`.
* It is confusing to have it available and in use at the same time with `std::span`.
* It does not obey the standard library iterator build hardening flags. See https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/31272 for a discussion. For example, this allows to catch issues like the one fixed in commit fabeca3458.
Both types are type-safe and can even implicitly convert into each other in most contexts.
However, exclusively using `std::span` seems less confusing, so do it here with a scripted-diff.
