Get_Transaction_By_Hash

Look up a transaction by its hash. This is the same hash that is returned by the API when submitting a transaction (see PendingTransaction). When given a transaction hash, the server first looks for the transaction in storage (on-chain, committed). If no on-chain transaction is found, it looks the transaction up by hash in the mempool (pending, not yet committed). To create a transaction hash by yourself, do the following: 1. Hash message bytes: "RawTransaction" bytes + BCS bytes of [Transaction](https://aptos-labs.github.io/aptos-core/aptos_types/transaction/enum.Transaction.html). 2. Apply hash algorithm `SHA3-256` to the hash message bytes. 3. Hex-encode the hash bytes with `0x` prefix.
