A simple refactor as preparation for moving consensus to code for transaction validation.

Consensus shouldn't depend on std::vector<CScriptCheck> *pvChecks.

This is part of #6051 but can be merged independently.

Code change looks good to me, but why is CheckInputs not consensus, while CheckTxInputs is?
jtimon commented at 6:04 PM on April 28, 2015: contributor

CheckInputs uses the CScriptCheck class which consensus doesn't need. I later plan to create Consensus::CheckTxInputsScripts that does the remaining and it's used directly instead of CheckInputs in some places (in miner and AcceptToMemPool, but not in AcceptBlock). The following branch is outdated, but you can get an idea here https://github.com/jtimon/bitcoin/commit/ddd505a4f62603d6b2ed07e0fecb213b81c8f795

This comment does not actually describe what the function does :)

jtimon commented at 12:06 PM on June 10, 2015:

Yeah, I just moved the comments from the cpp instead of moving the implementation of the new function. I've just added a line to the doc. Should I leave the rest here or move it back to the implementation?

By the way, @laanwj (or anyone) feel free to propose additional edits to GetSpendHeight's documentation.
