Christian Decker 6583f0dead pyln: Create a dedicated pyln-grpc-proto package
Having the grpc bindings in the pyln-testing package was always a bit
strange, however it came with additional issues. Due to the way that
protos are handled by protobuf, any name clash, independently of where
we import the protos, would cause an import error. This usually
happens in diamond-pattern dependencies, and so pull out the generated
files into their own package that everyone else can rely on.

# pyln-grpc-proto
The python protobuf library is rather restrictive when it comes to
importing them multiple times. So this package just contains the
compiled protobuf files and serves as the canonical place to load them
from.
