This moves the check for validating that the number of revocations does not exceed the maximum allowed to the checkBlockSanity function where it more naturally belongs since it does not require access to any previous chain context. It should be noted that this check previously used math.MaxUint8 and was rather implicitly limited by the fact the header uses a uint8 for the field, so this makes the requirement more explicit by defining a constant.
