multi: update mapstructure/v2

go-viper's mapstructure may leak sensitive information in logs when processing
malformed data. Updating to the version where the bug is fixed.
✓ Descriptive subject✓ Provides detailed explanatory context
The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit updates a dependency called go-viper/mapstructure from version 2.3.0 to 2.4.0 across several parts of the LND project. The commit message says the older version could leak sensitive information into logs when handling malformed data, and this update fixes that. The actual code change is only to version numbers in Go module files; no LND source code is changed. We can see the stated security reason but have no independent details about exactly what data could leak or how severe the upstream bug was.

Recommended action

Verify that v2.4.0 indeed resolves the claimed information-disclosure issue by reviewing the upstream mapstructure release notes and diff. Rebuild and redeploy LND with the updated dependency. Audit any existing logs that may have captured mapstructure decoding errors to check for accidental sensitive-data exposure. Consider pinning or monitoring this dependency because it is used for configuration parsing.
