Issue:
[Synchronizer] cannot deserialize transaction, skipping
The transaction which can not be deserialized is this [e9933221a150f78f9f224899f8568ff6422ffcc28ca3d53d87936368ff7c4b1d](https://blockchain.info/tx/e9933221a150f78f9f224899f8568ff6422ffcc28ca3d53d87936368ff7c4b1d), which looks like this serialized:

Because the TX is skipped, the addresses that belong to my wallet involving that tx show as having a balance of zero and I can't get the funds out of them.

I'm using Electrum 3.0.2, but was able to reproduce it in 3.0.5.

As a quick hack, I replaced the empty `return` from [this line](https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/blob/master/lib/transaction.py#L364) with `return [m, n, None, None, None]`, but that is not quite a fix, although it seems to work for me for now.

I tried to debug the issue, but got lost in the bitcoin and segwit protocol.
