Add a `OfferFromHrn` type to wrap `Offer`s which came from HRNs

In a coming commit we'll provide users a different `ChannelManager`
method for sending to `Offer`s which were fetched by resolving an
HRN. Here, we first ad a wrapper type which can be used by HRN
resolution methods to nudge users towards calling the correct
payment method on `ChannelManager`.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a small, preparatory refactor in the Lightning Dev Kit library. It introduces a new wrapper type called OfferFromHrn to mark payment offers that came from a human-readable name (like a BIP 353 DNS-style address). The wrapper helps ensure that future code calls the correct method when building an invoice request. There is no security fix or vulnerability patch here; it is purely a code-organization change setting up a later feature.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal feature/refactor commit. Review the follow-up commit that adds the new ChannelManager payment method for HRN-sourced offers when it appears, as that will contain the actual security-relevant logic.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
