This commit breaks the ChannelConstraints structure into two
sub-structures that reflect the fundamental differences in how
these parameters are used. On its face it may not seem necessary,
however the distinction introduced here is relevant for how we
will be implementing the Dynamic Commitments proposal.
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
