In this commit, we add a mirror set of fields to the ones we recently
added to the set of gossip wire messages. With these set of fields in
place, we ensure that we'll be able to properly store and re-validate
gossip messages that contain a set of extra/optional fields.
The channeldb implements the persistent storage engine for lnd and
generically a data storage layer for the required state within the Lightning
Network. The backing storage engine is
boltdb, an embedded pure-go key-value store
based off of LMDB.
The package implements an object-oriented storage model with queries and
mutations flowing through a particular object instance rather than the database
itself. The storage implemented by the objects includes: open channels, past
commitment revocation states, the channel graph which includes authenticated
node and channel announcements, outgoing payments, and invoices
