docs: add release note for EstimateRouteFee outgoing chans
What changed, and why it matters
This commit only adds documentation to the release notes describing a new feature: the ability to restrict fee estimates to specific first-hop outgoing channels in the EstimateRouteFee RPC and lncli command. There is no code change, no bug fix, and no security-related content.
No security action needed; this is a documentation-only release note update.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff adds two bullet points to docs/release-notes/release-notes-0.22.0.md documenting PR #10501, which introduced outgoing_chan_ids support in routerrpc.EstimateRouteFee and –outgoing_chan_id in the estimateroutefee lncli command. The change is purely informational release-note text.
