linter: update usetesting linter to match old behavior
What changed, and why it matters
This commit only changes a linter configuration file. It tells the project's Go linting tool to enforce a specific style rule about test code. There is no change to the actual LND software that runs on nodes, and no security issue is present.
No action required. This is a non-functional tooling/configuration change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The patch adds a single configuration option context-background: true under the usetesting linter section in .golangci.yml. This linter rule flags uses of context.Background() inside tests where t.Context() could be used instead. It is a code-quality/style enforcement change with no functional or security impact on the lnd binary.
