Description
Uses the consensus hashing API to construct the hasher used to pre-hash validator node data for Merkle roots. Updates a test.
Closes issue 5205.
Motivation and Context
The hasher currently used to pre-hash validator node keys and shard identifiers does not use domain separation or the consensus hashing API. This PR updates the hasher construction using the API.
How Has This Been Tested?
Existing tests pass.
BREAKING CHANGE: Renders existing validator node Merkle roots invalid.
