Explore options for connecting directly to LND without LNDHub in the middle #7

Currently LNDHub provides a nice REST API to the LND node underneath.

It would be easier for node runners to connect direct to their LND node. Maybe more complicated from our postion - maybe not.

API reference documentation for LND

OK so this is probably not going to happen.

React native takes SSL certs super seriously and there appears to be no way around the certificate issues.

This coupled with the difficulty of setting up LND with a certificate means that this is probably in the too hard basket.

It appears to be way simpler to set up LNBits and then using this as an intermediary.
