v0.6.0 - On-Chain for Everyone

Fedimint v0.6.0 is here! 🎉

The on-chain wallet is no longer considered "expert-only."

Since v0.4.0, Fedimint developers advised not exposing on-chain deposits to end users, due to limitations on processing deposits in very large (in bytes) on-chain transactions. This limitations has been lifted and on-chain deposits are now safe in all cases.

Some other highlights since our last major (0.5) release:

• Federation will now reject attempt to reuse ecash blind nonces, preventing possibility of loss of funds even in the event of client-side bugs and data corruption, significantly increasing ecash robustness and funds safety.
• Fedimint will now query (configurable) external sources for feerate information to improve real time fee estimation.
• On-chain feerate multiplier have been lowered, as it no longer needs to be as conservative.
• LN payment events are now tracked, allowing tracking profit and fees statistics.
• It's now possible to customize LNv2 gateway fees.
• Client recovery has been optimized and should be faster and use less data.
• Core lightning gateway is no longer supported.
• Work has been started on Iroh networking integration
• Fedimintd should use less memory now.

... and many, many internal changes and improvements. See commit log.
