lnwallet: include peer pub key in aux chan state

In order to help external components to query the custom records of a
channel we need to expose the remote peer pub key. We could look-up
custom records based on the funding outpoint, but that relation is
established when receiving the ChannelReady message. The external
components may query the AuxChanState before that message is received,
so let's make sure the peer pub key is also available.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit adds the remote peer's public key to an internal data structure (AuxChanState) used by external components to look up custom channel records. Public keys are not secrets, and the change only exposes information that was already available elsewhere in the channel state. There is no indication this fixes a vulnerability or changes security behavior.

Recommended action

No security action required. Review as a normal API/data-availability change.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
