Wrote up this section, describing how the onion layers are peeled as it moves across the route, as well as giving examples of how malicious entities could potentially use packet size to spy on and de-anonymize users

Update glossary.asciidoc
First time on GitHub.  Thanks for all your work!
I’ve changed capitalization of the entries that are not proper nouns.  Words like “transaction” or “receipt” do not need capital letters.  If you get the glossary right, it’s a useful reference for the rest of the book.  (Note that glossaries only capitalise proper nouns - see here: https://www.pearson.ch/download/media/9781405881357_glossary_ml_int.pdf)

channel construction: pt1: minor improvements of English
- of course ==> of course,
- core for ==> core of something
- is there and exists ==> repetitive
- learnt: ==> US English learned, UK and South African English: learnt, since there are more US readers than UK readers I would go with US English
- learnt already --> word order: already learned
- quite a bit : too fluffy, too relative ==> removed
- This will repeat some ==> sentence structure can be improved, restructured

ch01: Acronym LN (mostly)removed (#261)
- I removed acronym from first sentence and put it into the second. I did not feel that it is a good start when the first sentence of the book already has an acronym.
- Removed LN acronym 4-5 times further down. It was not consistently used anyway. Sometimes yes, sometimes no. I also think it reads better spelled out. So, for a book I feel it is better to spell it out 4 times, than to abbreviate it 4 times.

ch03: Added monetary limit to commonality of BTC and Lightning (#260)
* Added monetary limit to commonality of BTC and Lightning

As an alternative a new paragraph could be added with title "Monetary Limit" but I thought that adding two sentences to the "Monetary Unit" section would be enough.

* ch03: adjusted to incorporate comment

replaced LN with Lightning in specific instance (#266)
- when I read this I thought twice that someone is trying to abbreviate "Lightning Node" with "LN". 
- only on 3rd reading I realized that as usual "LN" stands for "Lightning Network" and the word "node" follows 3 words later
- anyway, to avoid confusion it should be replaced

ch03: replaced "LN" with "Lightning Network" exactly one (#267)
- Acronym "LN" shows up 3 time in chapter 3
- Twice explained (the definition): these I left in, because further chapters will/might make use of the acronym
- The third occurrence I replaced, as it adds just 1 work to the book, increases readability, is inconsistent with rest of this chapter
