bolt12: add Offer message struct with TLV codec

The Offer struct models a long-lived, reusable BOLT 12 payment template.
It defines TLV fields as optional records and exposes Encode/DecodeOffer
for round-trip serialization. The struct implements
lnwire.PureTLVMessage; AllRecords filters the decoded TypeMap through
bolt12InUnsignedRange to derive any signed-range extras the encoder must
re-emit, keeping offer_id and the Merkle root stable across encoders
that understand a wider set of even/odd extensions.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit adds new code for encoding and decoding BOLT 12 'offers' in the LND Lightning node. It is a feature-introduction commit with no bug fix or security patch. There is no direct evidence in the commit or supplied references that this change fixes a vulnerability or introduces one.

Recommended action

No immediate security action required. Review the new BOLT 12 codec as part of normal code review, paying attention to canonicalization of TLV records and signature-range handling before it is used in production payment flows.
