Update to btcd v0.26 / v2 modules #1159

Description

@ziggie1984

lnd is migrating to btcd v0.26 and the new split v2 modules:
wire/v2, txscript/v2, chaincfg/v2, chainhash/v2, btcutil/v2, psbt/v2, address/v2.

Loop is directly affected and should be updated so it can consume newer lnd and btcsuite module versions without mixing old btcd package paths with the new v2 module types.

Current impact observed on master:

  • go.mod still requires old btcd modules: github.com/btcsuite/btcd/btcutil, github.com/btcsuite/btcd/btcutil/psbt, github.com/btcsuite/btcd/chaincfg/chainhash.
  • go.mod still uses old lnd submodule versions such as lnd/tlv v1.3.2 and lnd/tor v1.1.6.
  • 156 tracked Go files contain old btcd import paths.
  • 49 tracked Go files reference moved btcutil address symbols.

Useful references:

Expected work:

  • Run/adapt the btcd v2 migration script.
  • Regenerate any generated RPC/API code if needed.
  • Update direct dependencies to btcd v0.26 and split v2 modules.
  • Update downstream Lightning Labs deps once compatible versions exist.
  • Fix manual compile issues such as address package shadowing and changed APIs.
  • Run module tidy/build/test checks.
