The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a routine dependency update inside the btcd cryptocurrency project. It changes the btcec cryptographic package to use a newer version (v2) of the internal chainhash module instead of the older v1 path. No security bug is fixed or introduced in the visible code; it is purely an import-path and module-reference change.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as normal maintenance; verify that the chainhash/v2 module interface is compatible and that tests pass.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
