Subject: [PATCH 01/11] Re-pin `idna_adapter` to for MSRV builds

New idna_adapter releases pull in ICU dependencies that need a newer
compiler than the Rust 1.85 MSRV used by the release branch.

Keep the MSRV jobs on idna_adapter 1.2.0 so the declared minimum Rust
version remains usable without restricting stable builds.

Subject: [PATCH 02/11] Pin encoding_rs for MSRV builds

Recent encoding_rs releases require Rust 1.88, exceeding the release
branch's declared Rust 1.85 minimum.

Keep the MSRV jobs on encoding_rs 0.8.35, matching the compatibility
pin already used on main.

Subject: [PATCH 03/11] Keep proptest compatible with the MSRV

The Rust 1.85 CI jobs resolve proptest 1.12.0, which requires Rust
1.88 and prevents the MSRV tests from building.

Keep those jobs on proptest 1.11.0 so they can continue checking the
declared minimum compiler version.

Subject: [PATCH 04/11] Terminate log macro calls used as expressions

Rust 1.99 warns when LDK logging macros expand with a trailing
semicolon in expression position. These warnings fail stable CI,
which denies warnings.

Terminate the affected calls explicitly, adapting the upstream fix
to the 0.7 source layout without changing logging behavior.

Subject: [PATCH 05/11] Bump CI actions to current major versions

The release workflows still use actions with obsolete Node.js
runtimes. Current workflow lint rejects several of those versions.

Bring forward the action upgrades from main, retaining the release
branch's Python setup rather than changing its build tooling.

Subject: [PATCH 06/11] Allow deprecated APIs in 0.7 binding builds

The 0.7 bindings expose a FeeRate constructor that newer Bitcoin
dependencies deprecate. Denying that warning fails CI, but renaming
the constructor would break existing binding users.

Allow deprecation warnings only in UniFFI build and check steps for
0.7.x. Other warnings and later release lines retain the existing
warning policy, and the public binding API stays unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 07/11] Account for `vss-server` location change

VSS moved its Rust implementation to the repository root. The
release workflow still uses the old location and cannot start the
server checked out from the current upstream branch.

Use the current server location, matching the upstream CI fix.

Subject: [PATCH 08/11] Use no-auth VSS for 0.7 integration tests

The VSS server now requires authentication by default, while 0.7
integration tests use fixed headers without authentication. Those
tests fail against a server started with the default features.

Enable the server's explicit no-auth mode for 0.7.x checkouts only.
Later release lines keep their existing authentication behavior.

Subject: [PATCH 09/11] Use Bash consistently in the Rust CI matrix

The Rust workflow uses Bash syntax for toolchain setup and GitHub
environment files. Windows runners otherwise default to PowerShell,
which does not interpret those commands consistently.

Select Bash for the build matrix so all platforms execute the same
setup commands with the expected shell semantics.

Subject: [PATCH 10/11] Handle partial binary cache restores in CI

Restoring either test binary cache creates the bin directory. If
the other cache misses, the download step fails when it tries to
create that existing directory.

Allow an existing bin directory in Rust and benchmark CI so partial
cache restores can still download the missing binaries.

Subject: [PATCH 11/11] Use supported LND payment RPC in tests

Newer lnd_grpc_rust releases removed the SendPaymentSync request and
client method. The 0.7 LND integration test still uses that API and
fails to compile against the current dependency release.

Adapt the payment RPC portion of main's LND test harness to use
SendPaymentV2, preserving successful-payment and nonempty-preimage
checks. Fail if the payment fails or its stream ends prematurely.
