Previously, msat precision was leaking through format_satoshis if the
user's base unit was set to "sat". This was a bug.
Some features of format_satoshis did not work well with such values, such
as the "whitespaces" param.
Old code:
>>> util.format_satoshis(Decimal('45831275.748'), decimal_point=2)
'458312.76'
>>> util.format_satoshis(Decimal('45831275.748'), decimal_point=0)
'45831275.748'
New code:
>>> util.format_satoshis(Decimal('45831275.748'), decimal_point=2)
'458312.76'
>>> util.format_satoshis(Decimal('45831275.748'), decimal_point=0)
'45831276.'
- better error handling: previously we stopped all attempts on any of
TRAMPOLINE_EXPIRY_TOO_SOON, UNKNOWN_NEXT_PEER, TEMPORARY_NODE_FAILURE.
Instead we should retry (but see code comments).
- previously payments failed if ALL of the following criteria applied:
- sender is paying via trampoline, but not via the ACINQ node (which is
special cased)
- receiver only has private channels and has put r_tags into invoice, along
with setting the trampoline feature bit in the invoice, however the receiver
is not connected to any trampoline forwarders directly
The sender would then assume that the private routing hints in the invoice
correspond to trampoline forwarders.
- also, previously if both the sender and the recipient used trampoline and
they shared a trampoline forwarder (that they were both connected to), the
private channels the recipient had (with nodes other than the shared TF)
would never be attempted.
- fix kivy wizard restore-from-seed
- qt seed dialog: disable "next share" if current share is invalid
- fix tests: file paths should not depend on $PWD (working dir)
Imported wallets used to send change back to the "from address".
We keep this behaviour as default.
There has already been an option "Use change addresses" (exposed in GUI),
ignored so far by imported wallets (was only used by HD wallets).
With this change, imported wallets no longer ignore that option, and if set,
they will send change to a random unused imported address, instead of back to "from address".
If all addresses are used, it falls back to sending change back to the "from address".

* Remove check for sign with privkey in init_cmdline
* Add with_privkey and with_wallet variants of signtransaction command
* Add unit tests for signtransaction_with_privkey and signtransaction_with_wallet commands
Previously, during early-startup (until configure_logging(config) is
called in run_electrum),
- the stderr log handler lost all log messages below warning level, and
- the file log handler lost all log messages regardless of log level
We now instead start buffering log messages in memory as soon as
electrum.logging is imported. The buffer is dumped into the
stderr and file log handlers when they are fully set up, and then
the buffer is discarded (and the temporary log handler is removed).
Note that messages are not logged until configure_logging() is called.
Previously WARNING/ERROR messages would get logged immediately to stderr,
but not anymore. This was changed so that the order of the log messages
can be kept intact. (if we log WARNINGs immediately, but need to delay
INFOs until the config is available, messages would either be out of order
or alternatively there would be duplicates)
Relatedly, we now follow the recommendation of the python docs re
logging for libraries [0]: we try to only configure logging if running via
run_electrum (the main script) and not when e.g. a 3rd party script
imports electrum.

Adds liquidity hints for the sending capabilities of routing channels in the
graph. The channel blacklist is incorporated into liquidity hints.
Liquidity hints are updated when a payment fails with a temporary
channel failure or when it succeeds. Liquidity hints are used to give a
penalty in the _edge_cost heuristics used by the pathfinding algorithm.
The base penalty in (_edge_cost) is removed because it is now part of the
liquidity penalty. We don't return early from get_distances, as we want
to explore all channels.
It is not realistic to expect Electrum to be used as a watchtower
in GUI mode, and possibly counter-productive (may set wrong
expectations).
A proper watchtower should be configured as a daemon. The
documentation will be updated to reflect this change.
The test framework did not like the "Test" prefix.

- use_recoverable_channel is a user setting, available
only in standard wallets with a 'segwit' seed_type
- if enabled, 'lightning_xprv' is derived from seed
- otherwise, wallets use the existing 'lightning_privkey2'
Recoverable channels:
- channel recovery data is added funding tx using an OP_RETURN
- recovery data = 4 magic bytes + node id[0:16]
- recovery data is chacha20 encrypted using funding_address as nonce.
(this will allow to fund multiple channels in the same tx)
GUI:
- whether channels are recoverable is shown in wallet info dialog.
- if the wallet can have recoverable channels but has an old node_id,
users are told to close their channels and restore from seed
to have that feature.
When forwarding an HTLC and the outgoing channel doesn't have
enough funds or other transient issues, we are failing the
HTLC with a temporary channel failure.
From BOLT #04:
* if during forwarding to its receiving peer, an otherwise unspecified,
transient error occurs in the outgoing channel (e.g. channel capacity
reached, too many in-flight HTLCs, etc.):
-> return a temporary_channel_failure error.
We have supported sending to any witness version since Electrum 3.0, using
addresses as specified in BIP-0173 (bech32 encoding).
BIP-0350 makes a breaking change in address encoding, and recommends using
(and using only) a new encoding (bech32m) for sending to witness version 1
and later. The address encoding for currently in use witness v0 addresses
remains the same, as in BIP-0173; following the BIP-0350 spec.
