Track satisfaction_weight in InteractiveTxInput

Instead of estimating the input weight, track the satisfaction_weight in
InteractiveTxInput. This then can be used compute the transaction weight
without storing individual weights in NegotiatedTxInput in an upcoming
commit.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a straightforward internal refactoring of how transaction input weights are tracked during interactive transaction construction in the Lightning Dev Kit. It splits the previous estimated input weight into a fixed base weight plus a separately stored 'satisfaction weight' (the variable signature/script portion). The total weight used for fee calculations remains the same, and there is no indication of a security bug being fixed.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal code-quality/refactoring commit. Reviewers may want to verify that every call site correctly adds BASE_INPUT_WEIGHT so that total transaction weight and fee calculations remain unchanged.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
