This changes the LICENSE file and adds license headers to most files
to relicense under dual Apache-2.0 and MIT. This is helpful in that
we retain the patent grant issued under Apache-2.0-licensed work,
avoiding some sticky patent issues, while still allowing users who
are more comfortable with the simpler MIT license to use that.

1107ab06c3 introduced an API to have a
ChannelKeys implementer sign HTLC transactions by calling into the
LocalCommitmentTransaction object, which would then store the tx.
This API was incredibly awkward, both because it required an
external signer trust our own internal interfaces, but also because
it didn't allow for any inspection of what was about to be signed.
Further, it signed the HTLC transactions one-by-one in a somewhat
inefficient way, and there isn't a clear way to resolve this (as
the which-HTLC parameter has to refer to something in between the
HTLC's arbitrary index, and its index in the commitment tx, which
has "holes" for the non-HTLC outputs and skips some HTLCs).
We replace it with a new function in ChannelKeys which allows us
to sign all HTLCs in a given commitment transaction (which allows
for a bit more effeciency on the signers' part, as well as
sidesteps the which-HTLC issue). This may also simplify the signer
implementation as we will always want to sign all HTLCs spending a
given commitment transaction at once anyway.
We also de-mut the LocalCommitmentTransaction passed to the
ChanKeys, instead opting to make LocalCommitmentTransaction const
and avoid storing any new HTLC-related data in it.
Instead of having in-memory access to the list of private keys
associated with a channel, we should have a generic API which
allows us to request signing, allowing the user to store private
keys any way they like.
The first step is the (rather mechanical) process of templating
the entire tree of ChannelManager -> Channel impls by the
key-providing type. In a later commit we should expose only public
keys where possible.
