BOLT: Basis of Lightning Technology (Lightning Network Specifications)

* BOLT 04: increase max size of onion payload messages This commit increases the max size of the encapsulated onion error messages. This is a follow up change to the recent change that added a `chain_hash` field to the `channel_update` message. With the addition of this field, the largest payload encoded within the onion errors has expanded to 138 bytes: * msat_amount || 2_byte_len || channel_update. As a result, the old fixed limit (including padding) is now insufficient. We use 256 bytes here in order to give us room for future message expansions. |
