lightning/bolts#1092 initially made the
gossip_queries
feature mandatory and assumed: however it generally doesn't make sense for mobile wallets. It was thus relaxed in the last commits of this BOLTs PR, so we revert our change tomandatory
to make this optional and avoid sending gossip queries to nodes who don't activate the feature.The code we're reverting was introduced in #2732
