If the mempool is modified at all (determined by a change in the sequence
counter), reset the rng, mempool, and the chainman for the next iteration.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only changes a fuzz test file (src/test/fuzz/cmpctblock.cpp). It makes the compact-block fuzzing harness create and send fake transactions during testing, and resets internal test state if the mempool changes. There is no change to production Bitcoin Core code, network rules, or wallet behavior. It does not fix or introduce a real security vulnerability.

Recommended action

No action required. This is a test-only change improving fuzz coverage for compact block handling. Reviewers may optionally verify that the fuzz harness reset logic does not hide real bugs, but the commit itself is not a security patch.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
