These things apply to all script buffer types and belong in the generic
trait.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This is a routine internal code reorganization in the rust-bitcoin library. It moves hex decoding and PSBT serialization helpers from a trait that only applied to the standard script buffer into a more generic trait so the same helpers work with all script buffer types. There is no security fix or behavior change visible in the diff.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal API refactor.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
