Add a method to BlindedPath that given a network graph will compact the
IntroductionNode as the DirectedShortChannelId variant. Call this method
from DefaultMessageRouter so that Offer paths use the compact
representation (along with reply paths). This leaves payment paths in
Bolt12Invoice using the NodeId variant, as the compact representation
isn't as useful there.
Instead of passing Vec<PublicKey> to MessageRouter::crate_blinded_path,
pass Vec<ForwardNode>. This way callers can include a short_channel_id
for a more compact BlindedPath encoding.
When sending an onion message to a blinded path, the short channel id
between hops isn't need in each hop's encrypted_payload since it is not
a payment. However, using the short channel id instead of the node id
gives a more compact representation. Update BlindedPath::new_for_message
to allow for this.
A common issue in LN is not having fully synced the network graph
when we attempt to send a payment. This should be improved
substantially with gossip v1.5, but for now we should improve our
debugability by logging how many nodes we have in our graph when
we attempt to find a route.
For the same reason the `bitcoin` crate is re-exporting
the `secp256k1` crate the `lightning` crate should
re-export the `bitcoin` crate: to ease the burden on
calling code to maintain compatible `bitcoin` versions.
The `lightning` crate makes heavy use of types defined in
(or re-exported by) the `bitcoin` crate. Compilation will
fail if e.g. comparisons or `match` expressions are done with
types from `bitcoin` crate versions with a non-equal minor
version. This forces calling code to depend on a `bitcoin`
crate with a compatible version. This becomes a maintenance
nightmare once two or more crates, that use `bitcoin` types
in their public API, are used in calling code simultaneously.
This is required for bindings as passing types from Rust to GC'd
languages can't map the concept of a type that has a lifetime of
the called function but instead needs to clone for safety.
`Amount` is less than two pointers long, so there's no reason it
shouldn't be `Copy`. Further, because its an enum, bindings can't
map a reference to it in an `Option`. Thus, here, we simply make it
`Copy` and return it in `Option`s rather than a reference to it.
EcdsaChannelSigner is no longer deserialized as of version 0.0.113 and
downgrades before version 0.0.113 are no longer supported as of version
0.0.119.
If we prune one side of a channel's `ChannelUpdateInfo` that means
the node hasn't been online for two weeks (as they haven't
generated a new `channel_update` in that time). In such cases, even
if we haven't yet pruned the channel entirely, we should definitely
not be treating these channels as candidates for routing.
Note that this requires some additional `channel_update`s in the
router tests, but all of the new ones are added as disabled
channels.
