In commit dd55d47 we started ignoring the legacy `latest_channel_monitor_archival_height` field of `NodeMetrics`. However, we erroneously started reading it as `Option<u32>`, though, given it's an optional field, it should have been read as a plain `u32` that might or might not be present. Here we fix this error.

👋 Thanks for assigning @TheBlueMatt as a reviewer! |
We previously added a test asserting backwards compatibility for nodes reinitializing from a VSS backend. However, given VSS tests are only continously run in CI we here add the same test using the default SQLite backend, ensuring backwards compatibility breakage is also checked when running tests locally.

Sorry, force-pushed some minor fixups dropping VSS-specific comments from the testcase: > git diff-tree -U2 e07e9f5c 93b6b425

CI is still sad though. |

Yeah, that seems really unrelated this time: |
