lnwallet: add taproot channel test vector generator

In this commit, we add a test vector generator and verifier for
taproot channel constructions. All vectors are derived
deterministically from a single 32-byte seed using SHA256(seed ||
label) for key derivation, ensuring any implementation can reproduce
them independently.

The generator covers two areas:

Script vectors decompose the full tapscript trees for every output
type: funding (MuSig2 aggregated key), to_local (delay + revocation
leaves), to_remote (1-block CSV leaf), anchors (OP_16 OP_CSV),
offered/accepted HTLCs on both local and remote commits, and
second-level HTLC transactions. Each entry captures the raw leaf
scripts, leaf hashes, tapscript root, internal key, output key, and
pkScript.

Transaction vectors produce full serialized commitment transactions
and HTLC resolution transactions for three scenarios: a simple
commitment with no HTLCs, a commitment with five untrimmed HTLCs,
and the same HTLCs at a higher fee rate causing some to be trimmed.

To generate: go test -run TestTaprootVectors ./lnwallet/ -args -generate-taproot-vectors
To verify: go test -run TestTaprootVectors ./lnwallet/

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only adds new test code and a JSON file of expected test outputs for Taproot Lightning channels. It does not change any production logic, network behavior, or wallet handling. There is no security issue in the commit itself.

Recommended action

No action required. This is a test-infrastructure addition. Reviewers may optionally confirm the vectors are deterministic and that the fixed seed/private keys are only used in tests.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
