Make payment secret compulsory on new invoices, and assume unknown nodes support TLV onions #4646

Merged

Most of this work is removing our assumptions that payment_secret is unnecessary (i.e. making us use modern TLV onion for the terminal everywhere!).

We also switch our assumptions about nodes for which we don't have a node_announcement: we assume they do support TLV onions. With the next release, we might be able to remove legacy sending support altogether (and then finally, legacy receive/forward).

This makes it easier to access (rather than decoding bolt11).

Changelog-Added: JSON-RPC: `invoice` now outputs explicit `payment_secret` it its own field.

Making things compulsory always feels dangerous but in this case it looks ok

Better to add a line saying what we're printing here and indenting slightly, otherwise we have random values appearing in the logs without any context.

It's going to be compulsory soon!

In fact, we make it compulsory, which means if you don't understand it
you'll hang up on us!

Add some logging for that in future.

Changelog-Changed: Protocol: All new invoices require a payment_secret (i.e. modern TLV format onion)
Changelog-Changed: Protocol: We can no longer connect to peers which don't support `payment_secret`.

This grandfathers in old invoices for the moment.

Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <[email protected]>
This is in preparation for removing support (next release?).

Changelog-Changed: Protocol: We now assume nodes support TLV onions (non-legacy) unless we have a node_announcement which says they don't.

we now require payment_secret both for sending and for receiving
(previously was optional for both)

see
lightning/bolts#898
ACINQ/eclair#1810
ElementsProject/lightning#4646

note: payment_secret depends on var_onion_optin, so that becomes mandatory as well,
however this commit does not yet remove the ability of creating legacy onions
