Add FundingContributionError for FundingTemplate methods

Replace opaque Err(()) returns from FundingTemplate methods with a
descriptive FundingContributionError enum. This gives callers diagnostic
information about what went wrong: feerate bounds violations, invalid
splice values, coin selection failures, or non-RBF scenarios.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a straightforward code-quality improvement: it replaces generic, uninformative error returns with a new descriptive error type for funding/splicing operations. It does not change the underlying checks or security boundaries; it only gives callers clearer messages about why an operation failed. There is no indication this fixes a vulnerability or changes exploitable behavior.

Recommended action

No security action required; treat as a normal API/ergonomics improvement. Continue standard review and testing.
