With the previous logic, a tx that has less than perTxOverhead = 4 bytes less than the max tx size will be rejected by the mempool even though it is perfectly valid. This bug was introduced in #1175.

This behavior could be rather surprising for users who create a big (but not too big) tx and then can't submit it to any node.

The fix is to use the "raw" size (without adding perTxOverhead) for the check, but to still add perTxOverhead when returning the TxMeasure.

Related: This code shouldn't live in Consensus (also see the module header), cf IntersectMBO/cardano-ledger#4820.
