Remove ChannelSignerType

We plan to have a single channel signer type going forward, so this is
unnecessary.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a routine internal code cleanup in the Lightning Dev Kit's Rust implementation. It removes a wrapper type called ChannelSignerType that previously distinguished between different kinds of channel signers, because the project now plans to support only one signer type (ECDSA). The change simplifies function signatures and removes now-unnecessary pattern matching, but does not fix a security bug or change cryptographic behavior.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as normal maintenance/refactoring. Reviewers may optionally verify that all signer access sites compile and tests pass, which the diff strongly suggests they do.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
