Introduce specific InvoiceBuilders in OffersMessageFlow

This change improves type safety and architectural clarity
by introducing dedicated `InvoiceBuilder` methods tied to
each variant of `VerifiedInvoiceRequestEnum`.

With this change, users are now required to match on the
enum variant before calling the corresponding builder method.
This pushes the responsibility of selecting the correct
builder to the user and ensures that invalid builder
usage is caught at compile time, rather than relying
on runtime checks.

The signing logic has also been moved from the builder
to the `ChannelManager`. This shift simplifies the
builder's role and aligns it with the rest of the API,
where builder methods return a configurable object that
can be extended before signing. The result is a more
consistent and predictable interface that separates
concerns cleanly and makes future maintenance easier.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a code cleanup and API redesign in the Lightning Dev Kit library. It splits one large internal method into two smaller, type-specific methods and moves invoice signing from a helper into the main ChannelManager. The change is described by the authors as improving compile-time safety and making the API more consistent. There is no indication in the commit that it fixes a security bug or vulnerability.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal API refactor. Review downstream consumers for compile errors due to the changed method signatures.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
