Stop advertising anchor channel support by setting anchor_channels_config to None when building the LDK node config. Anchors require a 25,000 sat on-chain reserve per channel to fund force-close commitment fee bumps — overhead an mdkd client with a single channel to the LSP can't justify holding back on chain. Affects new channels only: existing anchor-output channels keep their reserve until close/splice.
