Add clarification for Bolt11 prefix for regtest

The document (and also BIP-0173) does not clarify which prefix bitcoin regtest should use, but bitcoin-core seems to have settled on `bcrt`, thus the most concise way for bolt11 would be to use `lnbcrt...`

currently c-lightning and lnd are not compatible if you want to pay invoices in regtest mode, see:

# Human-Readable Part
The human-readable part of a Lightning invoice consists of two sections:
1. `prefix`: `ln` + BIP-0173 currency prefix (e.g. `lnbc` for bitcoins or `lntb` for testnet bitcoins)
1. `prefix`: `ln` + BIP-0173 currency prefix (e.g. `lnbc` for bitcoin mainnet, `lntb` for bitcoin testnet and `lnbcrt` for bitcoin regtest)
1. `amount`: optional number in that currency, followed by an optional
`multiplier` letter
