We are about to disect a couple of invoices for features, so let's add a class
that can encode and decode invoices from bolt11 strings. This is pretty much
the lnaddr.py file created by @rustyrussell with some minor changes. I'm
planning to clean this up further which is why I'm only exporting the
`Invoice` class for now.
This is the first step to transition to a better organized python module
structure. Sadly we can't reuse the `pylightning` module as a namespace module
since having importable things in the top level of the namespace is not
allowed in any of the namespace variants [1], hence we just switch over to the
`pyln` namespace. The code the was under `lightning` will now be reachable
under `pyln.client` and we add the `pyln.proto` module for all the things that
are independent of talking to lightningd and can be used for protocol testing.
