Investigate if we can use any of the new crates from `rust-bitcoin` on their own

[tcharding]

Warning this could easily be a hair brained idea.

Is it possible to use any of the stabalizing crates from rust-bitcoin without using a bitcoin beta release? And/or what hacks would this require?

If we could do this we could potentially not do #874 and then rust-psbt-v2 could use miniscript without us updating here.

I plan on doing this issue myself if it doesn't get shot down with anything super obvious by Andrew.

This crate depends pretty heavily on Address and the BIP32 types. Otherwise you could do it.

Hey @tcharding, are you still planning to investigate this yourself, or would you be happy for someone else to pick it up? I’d be interested in exploring which of the new rust-bitcoin crates Miniscript could depend on directly.

So if you are not working on this issue and allow I would like to give it a shot .

Thanks for the offer, but we are working on this issue.
