Add isValidSeed(str) function #200

Closed mDuo13 closed 2 years ago

mDuo13 commented 3 years ago

The library exposes isValidXAddress(str) and isValidClassicAddress(str) functions but does not provide the equivalent functionality for base58-encoded seeds. If you're taking user input and you need to confirm whether a pasted seed value is valid (proper base58 & checksum computes) you have to use try/catch on decodeSeed(str) or do some other even more roundabout check rather than getting a convenient boolean.

Adding an isValidSeed(str) function would serve that use case, and could be exported in higher-level libraries as well.
