This would be backward compatible, I think. Eclair would send
`funding_locked`, which is perfectly legal, but a normal peer would
still wait for confirms before also sending `funding_locked`; it's
just that option_zeroconf_channels would mean it doesn't have to
wait for that before sending HTLCs?

You can't send it before you know the channel_id, so it has to be at
least 1. Spec says:

- MUST NOT send `announcement_signatures` messages until `funding_locked`
has been sent and received AND the funding transaction has at least six confirmations.

So still compliant there?

Cheers,
Rusty.
