In this commit, we modify the existing rpcServer to fully manage the
macaroons, gRPC server, and also seek out and create all sub-servers.
With this change, the RPC server gains more responsibility, as it
becomes the "root" server in the hierarchy of gRPC sub-servers.
In addition to creating each sub-server, it will also merge the set of
macaroon permissions for each sub-server, with the permissions of the
rest of the RPC infra. As a result, each sub-server is able to
independently specify what it needs w.r.t macaroon permissions and have
that taken care of by the RPC server. In order to achieve this, we need
to unify the creation of the RPC interceptors, and also fully manage the
gRPC server ourselves.

As for the config, an example is:
```

signrpc.signermacaroonpath=~/signer.macaroon
```
By passing a pubkey into SendToRoute, it becomes unnecessary for lnd to
query the channel graph to retrieve the hop pubkey. This allows routes
over private channels that are not present in the graph.
In this commit, we ensure that we don't include routing hints for
unadvertised nodes at the time of invoice creation. Otherwise, this
would lead us to leak these unadvertised nodes to anyone who can get
their hands on the invoice being created. To prevent this, we'll now
look at the network graph and ensure that the node in unadvertised if
all of their edges are unadvertised and only extend to us.
In this commit, we address a slight regression in the defaults provided
by the OpenChannel RPC with regards to spending unconfirmed outputs to
fund funding transactions. We now add a new boolean parameter to
OpenChannelRequest: SpendUnconfirmed. If set, we'll use this to
indicate to the server that the funding transaction of the channel to be
created can spend the wallet's unconfirmed outputs to fund it. This
addition is needed because otherwise, if the caller doesn't specify a
MinConfs parameter to the request, then a default of 0 will be used,
which is not ideal.
In this commit the dependency of unmarshallRoute on edge policies being
available is removed. Edge policies may be unknown and reported as nil.
SendToRoute does not need the policies, but it does need pubkeys of the
route hops. In this commit, unmarshallRoute is modified so that it
takes the pubkeys from edgeInfo instead of channelEdgePolicy.
In addition to this, the route structure is simplified. No more connection
to the database at that point. Fees are determined based on incoming and
outgoing amounts.
In this commit, we extend the AbandonChannel RPC method to store as much
information as possible within the CloseSummary. Most importantly, we
store the current and next (if available) revocation of the remote party
along with the channel config for the local party. With this
information, we have enough data to be able to generate a custom signer
for a new commitment state, or to prove that the channel was indeed
ours if needed.
In this commit, we remove the unnecessary NewWitnessAddress RPC. We do
this as, at the moment, we only expose the wallet to generate witness
addresses. Now that the RPC has been removed, its REST endpoint has been
assigned to the NewAddress RPC, which should be the de facto way of
having the wallet generate any type of supported address.
Fixes#1986.
Using AbandonChannel, a channel can be abandoned. This means
removing all state without any on-chain or off-chain action.
A close summary is the only thing that is stored in the db after
abandoning.
A specific close type Abandoned is added. Abandoned channels
can be retrieved via the ClosedChannels RPC.
In a previous commit, we modified our fee rates to be sat/kw internally
as it was possible that the estimated fee rate was not enough to
properly broadcast the transaction. To remedy this, we decided to add a
fee floor, but this would only be enforced when querying the fee
estimator. In this commit, we attempt to do the same thing, but for fee
rates input manually by the user.
The commit ensures that for every channel, there will always
be two entries in the edges bucket. If the policy from one or
both ends of the channel is unknown, it is marked as such.
This allows efficient lookup of incoming edges. This is
required for backwards payment path finding.
In this commit, we explicitly convert sat/vbyte fee rates input by the
user to sat/kw. We do this as users are typically more accustomed to
sat/vbyte fee rates, rather than sat/kw.
In this commit, we fix a slight regression that happened when the
sendtoroute RPC call was implemented. As a result of the refactoring,
the debughtlc mode silently broke. In this commit, we fix this by
checking against the zero hash, rather than the length of the payment
hash, as since we use a fixed sized byte slice, it will always be zero.
