Scoru,Test: checks the challenge window period boundaries

Valentin Chaboche requested to merge vch9@scoru@check-constants-bounds into master

Context

While looking at the constants declaration to tackle #2980 (closed), I was a bit surprised that the challenge window period is non-inclusive. I extended a test to expose this behavior (it can be fine to leave as is but we need to be sure about the boundaries).

IT WAS WRONG:

The challenge window perido is inclusive, if you wait:

  • n - 1 blocks : NOT GOOD
  • n blocks: GOOD 😄

So in summary, the mr is an integration test testing these bounds. I also included a small refactoring about if ... then fail ... patterns.

Manually testing the MR

The CI should prevail (but do not trust the flakiness :p).
