channeldb: document legacy fwd packager interface
What changed, and why it matters
This commit only adds a documentation comment (a TODO note) to an existing interface in the channel database code. No code behavior was changed, no bug was fixed, and no security issue is present in the diff.
No action required; this is a documentation-only change with no security relevance.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The commit adds a four-line comment block above the FwdPackager interface in channeldb/forwarding_package.go suggesting that the kvdb transaction-level interface may be removable now that a backend-independent abstraction exists. There are no functional code changes, no bug fixes, and no security-relevant modifications.
