Some slightly larger scale revisions for BOLT-2, notably including a reorganization of the "open_channel" function with the introduction of two missing arguments.
Also, the addition of MSAT to the glossary in BOLT-0.
update stylesheet to reflect appropriate structure of Requirement sub-items and format of digits, numerations, and quantities;
copy edit BOLTs 0,1,2 to adhere to these changes;
Edit 00-introduction copy for clarity (minor rephrasing, punctuation),
correctness (grammar, capitalization, punctuation),
consision (minimizing wordiness, redundancy),
and consistency (document style, e.g. 1 space between sentences,
capitalization of headers, etc.)
This commit modifies the glossary to add a new entry which defines the
usage of `chain_hash` throughout the remainder of the documents.
Additionally, we now also specify which chain hash we expect for
Bitcoin within the glossary.
This commit also modifies BOLT #2 and #7 to omit the definition of the
expected `chain_hash` value for Bitcoin.
At cost of a few extra bytes between peers, this avoids the whole "oops, we were on a chain fork" problem, and simplifies generation of temporary channel-ids (just pick a random one).
Now we move the announcement_signature exchange to at least 6 confirms, which makes re-xmit tricky; I resolved that by insisting on reconnect that we send if we haven't received, and reply to the first one.
The term "channel shortid" wasn't used anywhere, so I removed it; it's now a gossip-only thing anyway.
One subtle change: pkt_error on unknown channels is now "MUST ignore"; this section was reworked anyway, and we'll want this if the #120 goes through, where one side might have forgotten unformed channels).
Closes: #114

* FIXUP! Channel-id rework, temp ids, 32 bits only.
Re-add the idea of temporary channel ids: far simpler since they're now
big enough we can just fill with noise.
Remove the alignment issues by combining txid and outnum using XOR; we
could reduce to 128 bit if we really wanted to, but we don't.
Error handling is now simple again, but while editing I changed the
behaviour for unknown channels to MUST ignore (this is important for
Change the 8-byte gossip channel id to `short-channel-id`.

* BOLT 2&7: Cleaner separation of concerns wrt announcement signatures
So far we did not have any indication on what to do if a node does not
allow announcing the channel and we had a mix of concerns in the
`funding_locked` message, which would also transfer the signatures
needed for the announcement. This is a proposal about splitting the
signatures into their own message, so that simple omission is an
opt-out of announcements, and it does not mix announcement/gossip
stuff into the peer-protocol.
(It also ended up adding a localfeatures flag to opt-into the channel-announcement, and thus creating BOLT 9)
