Use struct for HolderCommitmentPoint

Use struct for HolderCommitmentPoint

The only difference between the two variants is the next point, which
can be stored using an Option for simplicity. The naming of the
Available variant is also confusing as it refers to the next commitment
point. But HolderCommitmentPoint is typically used to represent the next
point, which is actually stored in the current field. Drop the "current"
nomenclature to avoid confusion.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a straightforward internal code cleanup in the Lightning Dev Kit's channel state management. It replaces an enum (a type with two distinct variants) with a struct (a simple container of fields) for tracking the holder's per-commitment point. The behavior is intended to be equivalent; the change only simplifies naming and removes redundant pattern matching. There is no indication of a security fix or vulnerability being addressed.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal refactoring commit. Reviewers may optionally verify that the serialization field renames preserve backward compatibility with existing persisted channel data.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
