#### PR checklist

- [ ] Tests written/updated
- [ ] Changelog entry added in `.changelog` (we use
[unclog](https://github.com/informalsystems/unclog) to manage our
changelog)
- [ ] Updated relevant documentation (`docs/` or `spec/`) and code
comments

<!-- CURSOR_SUMMARY -->
---

> [!NOTE]
> Switch total voting power computation to return errors instead of
panicking, add a safe accessor, and update callers/tests accordingly.
> 
> - **Types (`types/validator_set.go`)**:
> - Change `updateTotalVotingPower()` to return `error` instead of
panicking on overflow and set `totalVotingPower`.
>   - Add `TotalVotingPowerSafe()` to get TVP with error handling.
> - Update `TotalVotingPower()` to panic only if
`updateTotalVotingPower()` returns an error.
> - Use error-based TVP validation in `updateWithChangeSet()`,
`ValidatorSetFromProto()` (now returns error on bad input), and
`ValidatorSetFromExistingValidators()`.
> - **Tests (`types/validator_set_test.go`)**:
> - Add `TestValidatorSetFromProtoReturnsErrorOnOverflow` to assert
error on TVP overflow from proto input.
> - Update `verifyValidatorSet()` to handle `updateTotalVotingPower()`
error.
>   - Minor import addition for crypto key encoding.

chore: remove panic (#5525)

removes a panic from code

#### PR checklist

- [ ] Tests written/updated
- [ ] Changelog entry added in `.changelog` (we use
[unclog](https://github.com/informalsystems/unclog) to manage our

- [ ] Updated relevant documentation (`docs/` or `spec/`) and code

> [!NOTE]
> Replaces panics on total voting power overflow with error returns,
adds a safe accessor, and updates callers and tests accordingly.
> 
> - **types/validator_set.go**:
> - `updateTotalVotingPower` now returns `error` instead of panicking on
overflow; propagates error where applicable.
> - Added `TotalVotingPowerSafe()` to compute/return total voting power
or an error.
> - `TotalVotingPower()` now panics only if `updateTotalVotingPower()`
returns an error.
> - Updated callers: `updateWithChangeSet`, `ValidatorSetFromProto`, and
`ValidatorSetFromExistingValidators` to handle/propagate errors.
> - **tests** (`types/validator_set_test.go`):
>   - Added `TestValidatorSetFromProtoReturnsErrorOnOverflow`.
> - Adjusted tests to handle new error-returning behavior (e.g.,
checking `require.NoError` from `updateTotalVotingPower`).
