Prospectively consider isolating Tx generation into its own principled and narrowly defined library.

It may get used by various tools (tx-generator, db-synthesizer), reducing maintenance overhead.
It would involve significant refactoring of code form cardano-api.
It would be able to serve as a reference point / minimal case for Tx generation inside the consensus repository.

Start by defining an abstraction and an API (as little monadic as possible) for Tx generation: #4174
