lnrpc+rpcserver: add ConfirmationsUntilActive and ConfirmationHeight

Introduce ConfirmationsUntilActive and ConfirmationHeight in
PendingChannelsResponse_PendingChannel. ConfirmationsUntilActive indicates
the remaining confirmations needed for the channel to become active. If the
funding transaction is unconfirmed, ConfirmationsUntilActive defaults to the
total required confirmations (NumConfsRequired). ConfirmationHeight records
the block height at which the funding transaction was first confirmed; if
unconfirmed, it will be 0.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit adds two new informational fields to the 'pending channels' API response in LND: one showing how many more block confirmations a channel needs before it becomes active, and another recording the block height where the funding transaction was first confirmed. It is purely a visibility/UX improvement and does not change any security-sensitive logic.

Recommended action

No security action required; treat as a normal feature addition. Reviewers may optionally verify the arithmetic in rpcserver.go for computing remaining confirmations is correct.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
