One usecase is perhaps to save space if using trampoline anyway...
more importantly, if using gossip, LNGossip is heavily filtering what messages we request and get,
and e.g. can missing new NodeAnnouncements, etc,
and this is a quick-and-dirty workaround to force a fresh start.

Buttons Editor: Make background non-transparent and change to push button
There were some issues with transparent backgrounds with QToolButton on
Linux and as there is no real reason for them to be transparent we just
make them opaque.

Pay to editor: Fix size computations to use the proper values
Previously this did not take into account the spacing between lines nor
the margins of the control and the document. There is also a sensible
minimum height of one line now and it expands to up to 10 lines before
we show the scroll bar. When the scroll bar is active, we move the buttons
so they do not obscure the scroll bar.

kivy 2.1 seemingly became more sensitive to threading issues.
This used to work on kivy 2.0 and older, but 2.1 is complaining.

- use SetMinimumSize instead of sizeHint
(partially reverts 28f794b63b)
- to deal with small window sizes, set MinimumHeight of the
parent TabWidget (with a few extra pixels for margins)
- add an extra layout around address_help_text, so that it has
margins (margins were removed in 28f794b63b)
Previously the receive_tabs widget was allowed to be much smaller
than its inner main widget (e.g. truncating visible QR code).
A bit hackish to overwrite/monkeypatch sizeHint,
but I've tried a few approaches and this seems to work best.
Disable rebalance/swap suggestions attached to requests/invoices if there is an ongoing task.
Note: This assumes that all tasks are lightning payments, which is true for the moment.
These methods return a list of channels that can be rebalanced,
in order to receive or send a given amount.
Also add 'channels' parameter to submarine swaps.
Previously, swaps were not considering which channel to use.
When we do not have liquidity to pay an invoice:
- add 'rebalance' option in order to pay an invoice
- use the suggested channel in the 'swap' option
When we do not have the liquidity to receive an invoice:
- add 'Rebalance' and 'Swap' buttons to the receive tab
I believe lightning requests created before https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/pull/7730
can have an amount of None - ones created after have amount 0 instead.
We could do a wallet db upgrade potentially.
Regardless, the type hint is `get_amount_sat(self) -> Union[int, str, None]`,
so None should be handled. (well, arguably "!" should be handled too...)
