plugins: lsps: slim down lsps service

This commit replaces the lsps service. Therefore we add the cln_adapters
module that handles the communication with core-lightning. We add a
lightweight LspsService that wraps the router and allows handlers to
register themselves to the service/router.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a large internal refactoring of the experimental LSPS (Lightning Service Provider Specification) plugin in Core Lightning. It removes a lot of old code and replaces it with a slimmer service adapter. There is no direct evidence in the commit that this fixes a security vulnerability; it appears to be a code cleanup and architectural rewrite. Because it removes working LSPS2 logic (buy/get_info handlers and HTLC hook handling) and replaces it with a much smaller framework, the main risk is that functionality is incomplete or behavior may change, not that a known exploit was patched.

Recommended action

Treat this as a normal refactoring commit. If running the experimental LSPS plugin, verify that LSPS2 service functionality still works as intended after the rewrite, since the previous buy/get_info and HTLC-accepted handlers were removed. No immediate security patch action is indicated by the commit itself.

Security signals we found

01

Large negative diff (-2028 lines) removing prior LSPS2 request handlers and HTLC-accepted hook logic

02

New custom-message adapter decodes untrusted hex payloads and routes them; decode errors are logged and ignored

03

No input validation changes beyond moving existing decode_frame/encode_frame calls into a new module

04

No mention of security, CVE, bug, vulnerability, or exploit in commit title or message

05

No verified external references supplied
