Merge bitcoindevkit/bdk-cli#220: Add experimental silent payment transaction creation support

c57985475172fc610b3ce996338a43baef1c52d6 feat(silentpayments): add experimental silent-payments sending support (nymius)

Pull request description:

  **Description**

  This PR adds experimental support for creating silent payment transactions through a new `CreateSpTx` command. The implementation integrates the `bdk_sp` crate to enable sending Bitcoin to silent payment addresses.

  Key changes:
  - Adds `bdk_sp` dependency as an optional feature
  - Implements `CreateSpTx` command with support for silent payment recipients
  - Includes parser for silent payment `address:amount` pairs
  - Returns signed transactions ready for broadcast (not PSBTs due to silent payment derivation constraints)

  **Notes to the reviewers**

  - This feature is marked as **EXPERIMENTAL** and includes warnings against mainnet use
  - The command returns signed transactions directly rather than PSBTs because silent payment script pubkey derivation cannot be performed securely in a trustless manner with standard PSBT workflows
  - RBF is disabled for silent payment transactions (sequence set to MAX)
  - The implementation handles both single key and extended key signers
  - Error handling uses temporary `.expect()` calls that should be addressed in future iterations

  **Changelog notice**

  **Added**: Experimental silent payment transaction creation via `CreateSpTx` command (feature-gated behind `sp` flag)
