LND PR #9334 moves MaxNumPaths in blinded path building
LND PR #9334 moves the MaxNumPaths cap out of FindBlindedPaths and into BuildBlindedPaymentPaths for blinded payment path construction.
Mechanically, FindBlindedPaths can now hand the builder all valid routes before the limit is applied. The stated effect is fuller route interaction during construction, with possible implications for multi-path payments, liquidity use, and privacy-preserving routing in BOLT-12 contexts.
Caveat: the reasoning chain flags that this changes test-suite dependencies, including TestFindBlindedPathsWithMC, and may require reevaluating route-selection heuristics; it also notes possible added computation or suboptimal path choices if selection/randomization is not handled well.
