The `OfferIssuerId` was previously named `OfferNodeId`, but its usage changed when it was renamed: it doesn't necessarily match a lightning `node_id` and can instead be a completely unrelated public key. It can now be included in combination with blinded paths: when that happens, the blinded paths must be used in priority to reach the node as the `issuer_id` may not match a network `node_id` at all (or may even match an unrelated node).

OfferIssuerIdwas previously namedOfferNodeId, but its usage changed when it was renamed: it doesn't necessarily match a lightningnode_idand can instead be a completely unrelated public key. Note that we should probably also rename this ineclairif it hasn't already been done.It can now be included in combination with blinded paths: when that happens, the blinded paths must be used in priority to reach the node as the
issuer_idmay not match a networknode_idat all (or may even match an unrelated node).I'm clarifying this and getting rid of
contact_node_idsbecause for #719 I would like to use ascontact_node_id:issuer_idif includedblinded_node_idof the first pathThis makes more sense for wallets that generate multiple offers with different blinded paths each time, but keep the same
issuer_id.
