As of Rust lang `1.0.0` the `&[u8]` type does not include any error cases in the `Read::read` function. The bip158 module of `rust-bitcoin` involves a lot of propagation, but ultimately the fallible function is `Read::read` on a slice. Removing the error case allows for a cleaner API both internally and externally for future silent payments users.
