Subject: Correct handling of `UnknownRequiredFeature` deserialization
X-Git-Tag: v0.0.105~25^2
X-Git-Url: http://git.bitcoin.ninja/index.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=94639137c362ecc41d8ca33374f4c84d87839766;p=rust-lightning

Correct handling of `UnknownRequiredFeature` deserialization

Quite some time ago, `UnknownRequiredFeature` was only used when a
gossip message has a missing required feature. These days, its also
used for any required TLV which we do not understand in any
message. However, the handling of it was never updated in
`PeerManager`, leaving it printing a warning about gossip and
ignoring the message entirely.

Instead, we send a warning message and disconnect.

Closes #1236, as caught by @jkczyz.
