In PR lightningdevkit/ldk-node#755, we shipped a VSS authentication scheme in ldk-node that grants access to data stored in VSS based on the knowledge of a private key. This authentication scheme is the default method of authentication to VSS server in ldk-node. Here we wire up this authentication scheme to the public API of this crate. With this commit, if only the `--vss-url` argument is passed to the cli example, with no other VSS arguments, sigs auth is now used. VSS server default builds expect this authentication mechanism, and it works out of the box, so it is very demo-friendly. First launch VSS server: `cargo run -- server/vss-server-config.toml` then launch the cli example against VSS: `cargo run -- --vss-url http://127.0.0.1:8080/vss` Commit written with codex.
