Description

You can call txo spend without any parameters and it would pretty much wipe an entire wallet of claims/channels/tips/supports. We should probably require the --broadcast param and also at least one parameter (or some --all param?)

Research direction

Start at the txo spend CLI entry point and trace how it handles broadcast and selection parameters. Clarify whether spending all items requires an explicit --all option, then verify that a no-parameter invocation cannot broadcast or wipe wallet claims, channels, tips, or supports.
