## Description

One goal of transaction extension is to get rid or unsigned
transactions.
But unsigned transaction validation has access to the
`TransactionSource`.

The source is used for unsigned transactions that the node trust and
don't want to pay upfront.
Instead of using transaction source we could do: the transaction is
valid if it is signed by the block author, conceptually it should work,
but it doesn't look so easy.

This PR add `TransactionSource` to the validate function for transaction
extensions
