Account for shared input EMPTY_SCRIPT_SIG_WEIGHT
When splicing a channel, the previous funding output is spent and fees for it are paid by the splice initiator. However, the witness weight was not including EMPTY_SCRIPT_SIG_WEIGHT. Fix this and update the variable name to make clear the weight needed is the input satisfaction.

This commit fixes a fee-calculation bug in an experimental Lightning channel-splicing feature. When two parties splice a channel, the initiator pays the on-chain Bitcoin transaction fee. The code previously forgot to count a small but mandatory 8-weight-unit 'empty script signature' cost for the old funding input it re-spends. That made the initiator's fee estimate slightly too low. The fix adds that missing weight, so the initiator contributes enough fee and the splice transaction is more likely to confirm at the intended fee rate. It is a correctness/economic bug, not a direct theft-of-funds vulnerability, but a low fee could cause a transaction to stall or be dropped from mempools.

Include invoice_slot in OfferPathsRequest message
In the initially-merged version of the static invoice server protocol, the static invoice server would sometimes have to find a specific static invoice based on (recipient_id, invoice_slot) and sometimes based on (recipient_id, invoice_id). This made the API harder to use in terms of how the server would index into the KVStore.
We'd like to transition to the server always finding a specific invoice based on (recipient_id, invoice_slot) and get rid of the invoice_id concept.
Now that the invoice_slot is in the initial paths request, the server will be able to include the slot in the offer paths that they create in response, allowing the slot to be surfaced instead of the invoice_id when the invoice request comes in, in upcoming commits.

TransactionU16LenLimited was used to limit Transaction serialization size to u16::MAX. This was because messages can not be longer than u16::MAX bytes when serialized for the transport layer. However, this limit doesn't take into account other fields in a message containing a Transaction, including the length of the transaction itself.
Remove TransactionU16LenLimited and instead check any user supplied transactions in the context of the enclosing message (e.g. TxAddInput).

This commit removes a wrapper that limited individual Bitcoin transactions to 65,535 bytes. The old limit was too generous in some places and too strict in others: it did not account for other fields in the same message, so a transaction just under the limit could still make the overall wire message too large. The patch moves the size check into the context of the enclosing message (TxAddInput) and lets the transaction field hold a normal Bitcoin transaction. It is a correctness/refactoring change for the Lightning protocol implementation, not a clear-cut remote exploit.

This commit fixes a potential integer overflow in the experimental splicing feature of the Lightning Dev Kit. When a user or peer tried to splice a channel with a contribution larger than the total Bitcoin supply (about 21 million BTC), the code could overflow while converting the amount from satoshis to millisatoshis. The patch adds explicit checks that reject contributions above SignedAmount::MAX_MONEY and begins storing contributions using the safer SignedAmount type instead of raw i64 values. The bug is only reachable through the still-experimental splicing code path.

Remove their_funding_contribution_satoshis from FundingNegotiationContext
Once the counterparty supplies their funding contribution, there is no longer a need to store it in FundingNegotiationContext as it will have already been used to create a FundingScope.
This commit removes an unused field that tracked how much money the other party was putting into a channel. The field was marked as dead code and only relevant for future dual-funding/splicing features. The commit message says the value is no longer needed because it has already been used to create a FundingScope. There is no indication of a security bug being fixed.

ChannelManager::splice_channel takes witness weights with the funding inputs. Storing these in FundingNegotiationContext allows us to use them when calculating the change output and include them in a common struct used for initiating a splice-in.

This commit is a straightforward internal refactoring in the Lightning Dev Kit codebase. It changes how transaction 'witness weights' (a measure of data size) are stored alongside funding inputs during channel creation and splicing. The weights are now kept in a shared negotiation context so they can be used later when calculating change outputs. There is no indication this fixes a security bug; it appears to be preparatory cleanup for upcoming dual-funding and splicing features.

This change fixes a channel-recovery edge case in the Lightning Dev Kit. When an older serialized channel state is loaded after an upgrade, the code now tries to re-derive a missing 'current commitment point' from the signer instead of leaving it blank. That lets splicing work immediately after restore; if the signer cannot provide the point, the code falls back to the old behavior rather than failing. It is a robustness improvement, not a clear exploitable vulnerability.

This is a one-line bug fix in a Bitcoin Lightning Network library. A new field called `current_point` was added to track a cryptographic key for the current channel state, but when loading older saved channel data, the code accidentally left it blank (None) instead of restoring the saved value. This could cause the node to lose track of the correct key for the current commitment transaction, potentially leading to failures when signing or broadcasting channel state updates. It appears to be a data-corruption-on-upgrade bug rather than an obvious remote exploit.

This tiny patch changes how one specific splicing failure is handled in a Lightning channel. Previously, when the local node's commitment point was not ready, the code only warned the peer. Now it also disconnects the peer. The goal is to take the channel out of a temporary 'quiet' (quiescent) state so it can be used for normal payments again. Without the disconnect, the channel could get stuck and be unable to process payments after a failed splice attempt. This is a reliability/availability fix rather than a direct theft-of-funds bug.

Make `ChannelMonitor` round-trip tests more robust
During testsing, we check that a `ChannelMonitor` will round-trip through serialization exactly. However, we recently added a fix to change a value in `PackageTemplate` on reload to fix some issues in the field in 0.1. This can cause the round-trip tests to fail as a field is modified during read.
We fix it here by simply exempting the field from the equality test in the condition where it would be updated on read.
We also make the `ChannelMonitor` `PartialEq` trait implementation non-public as weird workarounds like this make clear that such a comparison is a britle API at best.

Allow quiescence-init while disconnected from peers
There are a number of things in LDK where we've been lazy and not allowed the user to initiate an action while a peer is disconnected. While it may be accurate in the sense that the action cannot be started while the peer is disconnected, it is terrible dev UX - these actions can fail without the developer being at fault and the only way for them to address it is just try again.
Here we fix this dev UX shortcoming for splicing, keeping any queued post-quiescent actions around when a peer disconnects and retrying the action (and quiescence generally) when the peer reconnects.

This commit improves developer experience in the Lightning Dev Kit by allowing users to request a channel pause (called 'quiescence') even when the peer is temporarily disconnected. Previously, the action would fail and the developer had to retry manually. Now, the request is remembered and automatically retried when the peer reconnects. This is a usability fix, not a security bug fix, and the commit message explicitly frames it as a developer-experience improvement.

When we initiate quiescence, it should always be because we're trying to accomplish something (in the short term only splicing). In order to actually do that thing, we need to store the instructions for that thing somewhere the splicing logic knows to look at once we reach quiescence.
Here we add a simple enum which will eventually store such actions.

Stop skipping the line in quiescence if our peer speaks first
In the case where we prepare to initiate quiescence, but cannot yet send our `stfu` because we're waiting on some channel operations to settle, and our peer ultimately sends their `stfu` before we can, we would detect this case and, if we were able, send an `stfu` which would allow us to send "something fundamental" first.
While this is a nifty optimization, its a bit overkill - the chance that both us and our peer decide to attempt something fundamental at the same time is pretty low, and worse this required additional state tracking.
We simply remove this optimization here, simplifying the quiescence state machine a good bit.

This commit removes a small optimization in the Lightning quiescence protocol. Previously, if both sides were about to request a pause (quiescence) at nearly the same time, the code tried to let one side 'go first' based on a tie-breaker. The commit simplifies this by always treating the peer that sends its pause message first as the initiator. This is a cleanup change that reduces state-tracking complexity and lowers the chance of subtle state-machine bugs, but it does not by itself fix a known active exploit.

This patch fixes a bug in the Lightning Dev Kit's channel-splicing code. When a channel is being spliced, the first new commitment transaction was being built with the wrong commitment number and the wrong counterparty public key (the 'commitment point'). The fix makes the code use the previous commitment number and the previous commitment point instead, matching what the counterparty already expects. Using the wrong values could cause the commitment transaction to be rejected or, in the worst case, lead to an invalid or unenforceable on-chain transaction if a dispute arises.

The fix stores and compares against the commitment number and point that were actually in use before the splice.
