Description

It is important to include the default (defined in code) universe federation server in the `ListFederationServers` RPC endpoint return values. Otherwise, a user will be mislead into believing that their node do not know of any federation servers out of the box. They also won't be aware that they are syncing against `universe.lightning.finance`.

Research direction

Start at the Go implementation of the ListFederationServers RPC and trace how the default universe federation server is defined and how federation servers are assembled. Done when the RPC includes universe.lightning.finance alongside the known federation servers by default, making the default sync target visible.
