channeldb: add new WitnessCache structure
In this commit, we add the WitnessCache sub-storage system of the
greater database. The WitnessCache is a persistent cache of all
witnesses we’ve encountered on the network. We’ll use this cache to
share any on-chain discoveries between active channels. Eventually
we’ll also use this to enforce the variant that a preimage is only to
be used ONCE on the network.

channeldb

Build Status MIT licensed GoDoc

The channeldb implements the persistent storage engine for lnd and generically a data storage layer for the required state within the Lightning Network. The backing storage engine is boltdb, an embedded pure-go key-value store based off of LMDB.

The package implements an object-oriented storage model with queries and mutations flowing through a particular object instance rather than the database itself. The storage implemented by the objects includes: open channels, past commitment revocation states, the channel graph which includes authenticated node and channel announcements, outgoing payments, and invoices
