The sender of open_channel must not set option_scid_alias in channel_type when announce_channel is set, but the receiver had no matching requirement.

Such a channel presents its real short_channel_id in the channel_announcement, yet rejects incoming HTLCs using it, so payments routed through it using gossip always fail.

The sender of `open_channel` must not set `option_scid_alias`
in `channel_type` when `announce_channel` is set, but the
receiver had no matching requirement.
