This commit was previously split into the following parts to ease
review:
- 2d746f68: replace imports
- 4008f0fd: use ecdsa.Signature
- 849e33d1: remove btcec.S256()
- b8f6ebbd: use v2 library correctly
- fa80bca9: bump go modules
To make it possible to use a remote lnrpc 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
lnrpc.SignMessage RPC to accept a digest instead of only the message
which has security implications.
With go 1.17 a change to the build flags was implemented:
https://go.googlesource.com/proposal/+/master/design/draft-gobuild.md
The formatter now automatically adds the forward-compatible build tag
format and the linter checks for them, so we need to include them in our
code.
