feat(asset): add RPC client + CLI for confidential assets (HF5)

rpc/assets.go: DeployAsset, EmitAsset, BurnAsset, GetAssetInfo
daemon/server.go: get_asset_info RPC method (native LTHN + custom assets)
cmd_deploy_itns.go: CLI command to deploy ITNS trust token
cmd/core-chain: register asset command group

Ready for HF5 activation — `core-chain asset deploy-itns` deploys
the ITNS token via the wallet RPC.
