The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only adds new test code to verify how an existing 'accountable' flag is forwarded between Lightning nodes. It does not change production logic, so it cannot introduce a new security vulnerability by itself. The tests check that the flag is correctly propagated (or not propagated) across a three-node payment path.

Recommended action

No action required; this is a test-only commit. If reviewing for security, confirm the underlying 'accountable' signal semantics are already correctly implemented in the production code exercised by these tests.

Security signals we found

01

New test file only; no production code changes

02

Tests behavior of an existing 'accountable' signal field on HTLC messages

03

No patch, fix, or behavior change to channel state machine
