Description
## Issue summary
The Ethereum mapping TTL feature allows entries to be deleted after a setup duration (e.g., twenty-four hours).
After this period, RPC methods involving mapping like:
- `Filecoin.EthGetMessageCidByTransactionHash`
- `Filecoin.EthGetTransactionByHash`
and in some circumstances, could return a non-null result even though the `Hash` to `Cid` entry has been correctly deleted.
## Task summary
- [ ] Find some of those hashes using `calibnet_eth_mapping_check` CI script
- [ ] Investigate how Lotus behaves for those hashes
- [ ] We should either properly document this behavior because it can be a source of surprise for API consumers
- [ ] OR we should find a way to handle those corner cases and always return `null` when an entry has been deleted
(This could be done by transforming back the `Cid` to an `Hash` and seeing if there's a match)
## Acceptance Criteria
- [ ] Add unit test covering this corner case
