offer_issuer_id included in offers with (blinded) offer_paths #7714

Description

@AndySchroder
  1. Only have private channels (required because of allow creating offers with blinded paths when you have public channels #7713) and no public channels.
  2. Create new offer
  3. decode the offer
  4. Find that offer_issuer_id included in offers with (blinded) offer_paths, revealing your node ID and defeating the purpose of the blinded paths.

It seems to me though that in the spec if offer_paths is set,offer_issuer_id should be omitted for privacy.
