The checks are redudant because too large range proofs and surjection
proofs will be rejected by libsecp256k1. Furthermore, the checks are not
precise, and they are anyway not present in other similar code locations.

46f2416 Remove old testing code (Tim Ruffing)
This removes checks from the pre-asset era that reject amounts on the
input side of a transaction if these amounts overflow. The checks are
superficial because VerifyAmounts() already rejects input amounts that
could potentially overflow.
One of the removed checks is wrong because it rejects legitimate
transactions that spend more than MAX_MONEY asset units altogether,
even if those units belong to different assets. For example, a
transaction spending MAX_MONEY units of an asset "apple" and MAX_MONEY
units of an asset "orange" was previously rejected because the code
literally added apples and oranges in this case.
This forbids the explicit issuance of 0 re-issuance tokens (like for the issuance of
normal assets. The proper way to issue no re-issuance tokens is to use a
null commitment for the amount.
The proper way to issue 0 units of an asset is a null commitment but not
an explicit commitment to 0.
This commit eliminates the issue that some checks in the verification of
the issuance of re-issuance tokes were skipped when issuing 0 asset units
explicitly. This commit also simplifies the control flow of the relevant
code locations.
