1. allow constructing change output from _any_ input …

     In only a few days, this has proven to be a quite major issue users have been running into. The thing is that we can't really control how the shape of the UTxO evolves.
     Quite easily, a user can end up with large quantity of Ada bound to a particular asset. Before this commit, when transacting on other assets, these Ada would've been
     locked and the user will be granted with a 'cannot_cover_fee' error, despite having plenty of Ada in his/her wallet. However, because of the way we construct change outputs,
     it is rather safe and easy to also select from any inputs and construct change outputs accordingly.
   
     As a matter of fact, the change construction is an iterative trial-and-error process. That is, it works in the following steps:
   
     - From a given set of input, try to construct valid change output to cover for the transaction need
     - If impossible, select another input and try again.
   
     Selecting an extra input which contains some potentially new assets will result in a completely different change output. However, since we are re-construct the entire change
     output sets on each iteration, it doesn't matter much. This processus is still imperfect in the sense that there may be some valid subset of the selection which can result
     in a valid transaction, whereas some other path may not.
