The previous implementation was a bit lazy: in particular, since we didn't
remember the disabled plugins, we would load them on rescan.
Changelog-Changed: config: the `plugin-disable` option works even if specified before the plugin is found.
Previously we've used the term 'funder' to refer to the peer
paying the fees for a transaction; v2 of openchannel will make
this no longer true. Instead we rename this to 'opener', or the
peer sending the 'open_channel' message, since this will be universally
true in a dual-funding world.
The documentation was wrong, and I copied my mistake to `libplugin` where it
was then ignored instead of ORed into the node's featurebits. This fixes both.
As discussed with Christian, prepending the length to the payload returned
is awkward, but it's the only way to set a legacy payload. As this will
be soon deprecated, simplify the external API.

This makes testing easier, and makes sense: lightningd might not
*know* about other connected channels, depending on gossip, but if the
user specifies it we should obey it.

Changelog-Changed: JSON: `invoice` `exposeprivatechannels` now includes explicitly named channels even if they seem like dead-ends.
We had them split according the separate use-cases:
- testing
- doc-gen
- wire-gen
But that was causing new contributors to miss some dependencies when they
first got hacking. So this consolidates all of our own dependencies in a root
requirements.txt, with the notable exception of `pyln-client`, `pyln-testing`
and `pyln-proto` which are distributed as PyPI modules and therefore have
their own dependencies that need to be tracked in the module root.
Closes#3518
This regroups questions (frequently) seen in Github issues, on IRC, and
also some I've been asked in face to face.
Changelog-Added: doc: An FAQ was added, accessible at https://lightning.readthedocs.io/FAQ.html

Lisa corrected my poor english grammar.

This is useful in general, but in particular it allows fundchannel to avoid YA
query to figure out if it can wumbo.

Changelog-Added: JSON: `connect` returns `features` of the connected peer on success.
This cleans up the boutique handling of features, and importantly, it
means that if a plugin says to offer a feature in init, we will now
*accept* that feature.
Changelog-Fixed: Plugins: setting an 'init' feature bit allows us to accept it from peers.

This restriction was removed from the spec as of
86c2ebcc5973a4133d3ce4d80ae1c203061a1646.
We also fix up some strange formatting in that part of the documentation.
Changelog-changed: We now announce multiple addresses of the same type, if given.

ChangeLog-Added: New `getsharedsecret` command, which lets you compute a shared secret with this node knowing only a public point. This implements the BOLT standard of hashing the ECDH point, and is incompatible with ECIES.
Before this patch we used to send `double`s over the wire by just
copying them. This is not portable because the internal represenation
of a `double` is implementation specific.
Instead of this, multiply any floating-point numbers that come from
the outside (e.g. JSONs) by 1 million and round them to integers when
handling them.
* Introduce a new param_millionths() that expects a floating-point
number and returns it multipled by 1000000 as an integer.
* Replace param_double() and param_percent() with param_millionths()
* Previously the riskfactor would be allowed to be negative, which must
have been unintentional. This patch changes that to require a
non-negative number.
Changelog-None
the tests are not possible only by having tests/requirements.txt .
Running the whole testsuite also runs contrib/pyln-proto/tests/test_invoice.py
which needs requiremnets of pyln-proto and so on.
Also requirement coincurve requires libsecp256k1-dev headers.
As most developers need all requiremtents and we should tell them.
1. GH_TOKEN is probably required to run the changelog script.
2. Note the footnotes need updating; we no longer have [Unreleased].

Changelog-Fixed: Fixed factual errors in `lightning-listchannels.7` documentation.
`delay` is ***not*** the unilateral close delay for that channel-direction!
Changelog-Changed: The hooks `db_write`, `invoice_payment`, and `rpc_command` now accept `{ "result": "continue" }` to mean "do default action", in addition to `true` (`db_write`), `{}` (`invoice_payment`), and `{"continue": true}` (`rpc_command`). The older "default" indicators are now deprecated and are now recognized only if `--deprecated-apis` is set.
Changelog-Added: lightningd: Added --subdaemon command to allow alternate subdaemons.
[ Wow, that was mammoth; 44 comments over 12 commits. Feels almost unfair to squash it into one commit, so I wanted to note @ksedgwic's perseverence here! --RR ]
