DanS 070a516f4e fix(send): validate recipient address checksums (Base58Check + Bech32)
The send screen labelled any prefix+length match as a "Valid" address, so a
mistyped address that still matched the pattern passed the gate. Add pure,
offline checksum validation — Base58Check (transparent R-addresses) and Bech32
(Sapling zs-addresses) — and require it in the validity check. Both verifiers are
version-byte/HRP agnostic (the HRP is taken from the string, the Base58 checksum
is chain-independent), so a correct implementation never rejects a genuine
address while catching transcription errors. Works for both build variants
(no daemon round-trip), unit-tested against standard BIP173 / Base58Check vectors.

// of the chain's version bytes / HRP, so a correct implementation never rejects a
// genuinely-valid address while still catching transcription errors. Used to make
// the send screen's "Valid address" label/gate reflect reality instead of a bare
// prefix+length heuristic. No network, no daemon — safe for both build variants.
