rlp: stricter validation of canonical integer format
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
All integers (including size information in type tags) need to be
encoded using the smallest possible encoding. This commit expands the
stricter validation introduced for *big.Int in commit 59597d2
to all integer types and size tags.
