Since it's not spec-final yet (hell, it's not even properly specified
yet!) we need to put it behind an experimental flag.
Unfortunately, we don't have support for doing this in a plugin; a
plugin must present features before parsing options. So we need to do
it in core.

This switch was not doing anything useful anymore.
We deprecate it anyways to notify the user about the new switch.
Changelog-Deprecated: The old --disable-ip-discovery config switch
This adds the option to explicitly enable ip-discovery, which maybe
helpful for example when a user wants TOR announced along with
discovered IPs to improve connectivity and have TOR just as a fallback.
Changelog-Added: Adds config switch 'announce-addr-discovered': on/off/auto
TODO: It would be great to similarly annotate new/deprecated commands and
their parameters.

Changelog-Added: doc: we now annotate what versions JSON field additions and deprecations happenened.
This broke BTCPayServer, so revert. I originally (accidentally!)
implemented this such that it broadcast both DNS and IP entries, but
Michael reported earlier that they still don't propagage well, so
simply suppress them.

Fixes: #5795
Changelog-Changeed: Config: `announce-addr-dns` needs to be set to *true* to put DNS names into node announcements, otherwise they are suppressed.
Changelog-Deprecated: Config: `announce-addr-dns` (currently defaults to `false`). This will default to `true` once enough of the network has upgraded to understand DNS entries.
The old `experimental-accept-extra-tlv-types` is now `accept-htlc-tlv-types`.

Changelog-Added: Config: `accept-htlc-tlv-types` lets us accept unknown even HTLC TLV fields we would normally reject on parsing (was EXPERIMENTAL-only `experimental-accept-extra-tlv-types`).
Technically this is a non-conformance with the spec, hence the `dev`
flag to opt-in, however I'm being told that it is also implemented in
other implementations. I'll follow this up with a proposal to the spec
to remove the checks we now bypass.
This is a good sanity check that users understand that if they upgrade
to master mid-cycle they can't go back!

Changelog-Added: Config: `--database-upgrade=true` required if a non-release version wants to (irrevocably!) upgrade the db.

`lightningd` has an option --wallet that lets you supply a database dsn
string to connect to a sqlite3/postgres database that's hosted/stored
elsewhere.
This adds the `--bookkeeper-db` option which does the same, except for
the bookkeeping data for a node!
Note that the default is to go in the `lightning-dir` in a database
called `accounts.sqlite3`
To reduce the surface area of amount of a channel balance that can be
eaten up as htlc dust, we introduce a new config
'--max-dust-htlc-exposure-msat', which sets the max amount that any
channel's balance can be added as dust
Changelog-Added: config: new option --max-dust-htlc-exposure-msat, which limits the total amount of sats to be allowed as dust on a channel
That was quick!
We remove the 50% test, since the default is now to use quickclose.

Changelog-Added: Protocol: We now perform quick-close if the peer supports it.
Based on a commit by @niftynei, but:
- Separated quickclose logic from main loop.
- I made it indep of anchor_outputs, use and option instead.
- Disable if they've specified how to negotiate.

Useful for regtest and testnet. Sure, you shouldn't use this on mainnet,
but I haven't restricted it because our users are usually pretty clever.

Fixes: #1806
Changelog-Added: config: `force_feerates` option to allow overriding feerate estimates (mainly for regtest).
