Clarification that KeyDescriptor describes the public key in
raw_key_bytes and the key_loc identifies the private key. Helps
clarify responses from calls like DeriveKey and DeriveNextKey from
WalletKit.
Fixes#5899
To make it possible to use a remote signrpc server as a signer for our
wallet, we need to change our main interface to sign the message instead
of the message's digest. Otherwise we'd need to alter the
signrpc.SignMessage RPC to accept a digest instead of only the message
which has security implications.
This is meant to handle a quirk in which key descriptors obtained
through walletrpc.DeriveKey don't result in the derived key being
persisted to the wallet's database, unlike with DeriveNextKey. Due to
this and some fallback logic in the wallet with regards to empty key
locators, if a request only specified the compressed public key, the
signature returned would be over a different key, namely the one derived
from (family=0, index=0).
With this commit we add the ability to create a shared DH key by using
a custom node private key instead of the node's identity private key.
If no key locator is specified the node's identity private key will be
used as a fallback.
To allow signing of messages with any key in the key chain
we add two new methods to the signer RPC. These behave differently
to the methods with the same name in the main RPC as described
in the documentation comment.
This commit upgrades the protobuf version. Compared to the previous
v1.2.0 it generates smaller diffs in generated code. This change was

In this commit, we add a new sub-RPC server to the existing set of gRPC
servers. This new sub-RPC server is the WalletKit. It's a utility
toolkit that contains method which allow clients to perform common
interactions with a wallet such as getting a new address, or sending a
transaction. It also includes some supplementary actions such as fee
estimation.
One thing to note in the RPC file is that we _import_ the existing
signer.proto file in order to get at some existing proto definitions
which are useful in our use case.
In this commit, we add the ComputeInputScript which will allow callers
to obtain witnesses for all outputs under control of the wallet. This
allows external scripting of things like coin join, etc.
