[RFC] Lightning payment format



Summary:

In a recent email exchange between Rusty Russell and Christian Decker, they discuss the readability of invoices for Bitcoin transactions. They agree to use BTC with m (milli), u (micro), n (nano) and p (pico) instead of bech32. They provide examples of conversions at different values of BTC. Christian suggests using the m/u/n modifier as the decimal point but finds it difficult to write the code to encode/decode. They also briefly mention assigning proposal numbers for BOLT 10 and BOLT 11.
