In this commit we bump the minimum LND version required to run loopd to
v0.15.1-beta in order to ensure that the underlying chain backend
supports taproot (https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/6798)
This makes two changes to handling of errors when configuration file
could not be loaded:
1. Only NotFound errors are considered OK - access errors and other FS
issues are now treated as fatal.
2. Failing to load config file specified explicitly via `--configfile`
option is alway a fatal error.
Rationale: If the configfile was specified explicitly then it indicates
the user really wishes to load it. While the user could want it to be
optionally loaded for extra configuration options, this can be
accomplished using an empty file.
If the config file was not specified explicitly then its' path was
computed from loop directory. If the file is inaccessible due to
permissions or other FS errors it's nearly certain other following
operations will fail as well. Failing early with a clear message is thus
beneficial.
This still leaves room for uncaught user error (e.g. mistakenly naming
config file inside loop dir as `loop.conf` instead of `loopd.conf`) but
it's greatly reduced and such error should be easier to identify.

The version v0.10.1-beta of lnd is quite old with v0.13.0-beta just
being published as RC2. Maintaining backward compatibility in the
lndclient library is quite an effort. We decided to merge the v0.11.1
branch into master meaning that all our projects now have this minimum
version requirement.
This commit bumps the _compile time_ version of lnd to v0.13.0-beta.rc2.
This does not have an effect on the user, the run time backward compatibility
will be preserved. Only the next commit will bump that minimum version.
We update to the newest version of lnd so we can use the updated
macaroon service.
NOTE: This is a compile time dependency update only, no RPC level update
is required.
