The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a straightforward performance optimization for the askrene plugin. It replaces a slow linked-list lookup of routing 'layers' with a fast hash table, dramatically speeding up operations when many layers exist. There is no security-relevant change here.

Recommended action

No security action required; treat as normal performance improvement.

Security signals we found
