mod: bump google.golang.org/grpc to v1.79.1

In this commit, we bump the grpc dependency from the v1.73.0 version
(pulled in transitively by btcwallet) to v1.79.1 which is the latest
release and includes several bug fixes. This also bumps a number of
related transitive deps including google.golang.org/protobuf to v1.36.10
and several golang.org/x packages.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit updates several software building blocks (dependencies) used by the Lightning Network Daemon (LND), most notably the gRPC networking library from version 1.73.0 to 1.79.1, plus related Google and Go standard-library packages. The commit message says the new versions include bug fixes, but does not say any of those bugs are security issues. Because the diff only shows version number changes and no code changes, we cannot confirm from this commit alone that a specific vulnerability is being fixed. It is best treated as a routine maintenance update that may incidentally close known bugs in upstream libraries.

Recommended action

Treat as routine dependency hygiene. Verify the updated dependencies against your vulnerability scanner or the upstream release notes for gRPC and golang.org/x/crypto. If any of the bumped versions are known to fix CVEs, consider expediting deployment; otherwise apply during the normal release cycle. No immediate code-level mitigation is required.

Security signals we found

01

Dependency bump of security-sensitive libraries (gRPC, golang.org/x/crypto, golang.org/x/net)

02

Commit message mentions 'several bug fixes' but does not characterize them as security fixes

03

No LND code changes or patch-level evidence of a vulnerability fix

04

No CVE, advisory, or researcher attribution present in the supplied materials
