Fix chanmon_consistency for real hashes

Store real payment preimages in `chanmon_consistency` and use
them when claiming funds, so the real-hashes runner does not
treat `payment_hash` bytes as a stand-in preimage.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This change fixes a fuzz-testing harness so it generates and stores real payment preimages instead of reusing payment hash bytes as fake preimages. It only affects internal test code, not the production Lightning library, so it has no direct security impact on real users.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal test-quality fix. If fuzzing infrastructure is part of CI, ensure the real-hashes runner is exercised to confirm the fix.

Security signals we found

01

No production code changed

02

03

Fixes test-only preimage handling; previously used payment hash bytes as stand-in preimage

04

No cryptographic weakness introduced; improves test fidelity
