The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit removes a developer-only testing option that let operators override the clock used by the gossip subsystem. It is a cleanup/refactoring change, not a security fix. The removed option was only available in developer builds and was being replaced by a more general time-override mechanism (CLN_DEV_SET_TIME).

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as routine developer-cleanup. If CLN_DEV_SET_TIME is intended to replace this, verify that the new mechanism covers the same test scenarios.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
