Description

Close #945

This listens for webln:enabled and enables the attached wallet responsible for WebLN. This means that stackers only need to enable WebLN once by logging in with lightning which will optimistically call the window.webln stuff or by clicking on the QR code during payments. After that, following payments will first try to use the WebLN wallet using our wallet code like any other wallet before showing any QR code.

I think only running WebLN optimistically during login and not also during payments is a good compromise since the user will be asked to enable WebLN during login. If they do, the WebLN wallet is also enabled which will then call the window.webln stuff optimistically because we use our attached wallets optimistically.

Video

WebLN is optimistically called during Login with Lightning; enabling our WebLN wallet on connect:

Clicking on QR code for payments prompts WebLN; also enabling our WebLN wallet on connect:

Additional Context

I've added a listener for webln:disabled even though it doesn't fire. Ideally, we would also disable the attached wallet since I think that would match user expectations.
