Make cln-grpc a first-class citizen #7167

Description

@kilrau

Tl;dr: We at Boltz are building a new major client on CLN communicating with CLN solely via gRPC and we dearly miss decent gRPC support in CLN.

For us this means:

  • Support all calls, add new calls to cln-grpc immediately - no more adding "on demand"
  • Fix cln-grpc bugs with the same priority than lightning-rpc
  • Enable cln-grpc in CLN by default

The current mode of adding gRPC calls on demand and not knowing if a node has gRPC available or not clearly doesn't work for anyone trying to build something serious:
