Figure out path-length-limiting when routing with metadata/blinded paths

Open TheBlueMatt opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Now that we support payment metadata, which reduces the max path length, and given we're about to support blinded paths, we need to figure out the max path length more carefully when routing.

This is important to fix, but it doesn't need to be fixed for MVP of BOLT12, slipping to 117.

Still important, but still not that important. We don't really ever generate routes that are that long for other reasons, and if someone gives us a stupidly long route and we can't pay, that's on them.
