lightningd: add channel_id filter to listpeerchannels

Sometimes we don't know the short_channel_id yet (e.g the channel has
not been broadcasted), but we still know the channel_id from the funding
transaction. Add a channel_id filter to listpeerchannels and clarify
that id, short_channel_id and channel_id are mutually exclusive.

Changelog-Added: `listpeerchannels` now accepts a `channel_id` filter,
for cases where the `short_channel_id` is not known yet.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit adds a new optional 'channel_id' filter to the listpeerchannels RPC command in Core Lightning. It lets users look up a channel by its funding-transaction identifier when the short channel ID isn't yet known. The change is purely a usability/API enhancement and does not appear to fix or introduce any security issue.

Recommended action

No security action required; treat as a normal feature/API update. Reviewers may optionally verify that the mutual-exclusivity check is correctly enforced in peer_control.c, though the schema already documents this behavior.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
