Merge #10712: Add change output if necessary to reduce excess fee

Browse source 
0f402b9 Fix rare edge case of paying too many fees when transaction has no change. (Alex Morcos)
253cd7e Only reserve key for scriptChange once in CreateTransaction (Alex Morcos)

Pull request description:

  This is an alternative to #10333

  See commit messages.

  The first commit is mostly code move, it just moves the change creation code out of the loop.
