In this commit, we remove references to raw keys from the main
ChannelConfig struct and instead replace it with usage of
keychain.KeyDescriptor. We do this, as the ChannelConfig as it stands
is a near complete static description of a channel. In the future, it
will be possible to export these static descriptions as backups. We
prefer the KeyDescriptor of a plain PublicKey, as the KeyLocator
portion of the struct allows a stateless signer to re-derive the keys
as needed when signing.
This commit adds the ChannelFlags field, of type
lnwire.FundingFlags, to the OpenChannel struct,
including serialization for database storage.
This is done to preserve the flags that were
sent during channel opening, currently used
to determine whether a channel should be made
public or not after opening.
In this commit, we add a new files to the channeldb package: codec.go.
This file is similar to the way that serialization is done within the
lnwire package. The goal of this file is to reduce all the duplication
within the common serialization methods across the package.
