protocol
We should make anchor channels the default, given most of the implementations have implemented it, and are ready to do the same. Along the way, we should require
channel_type
based negotiation the default, as without it, channel type negotiation may be unknown/undefined.Along the way, we should update the itests and the protocol cfg flags to make anchor channels the default. This may require a slight re-work of some of the tests.
Steps To Completion
Make the channel type, and anchor channel bits required.
Reject incoming channel requests if they don't use channel type based negotiation.
Reject incoming channel requests for normal static key channels (non-anchor).
