add aggregated outbound and inbound vanilla lightning balance

[Arshia-r-m]

Is there any endpoint to provide total btc lightning balance(outbound and inbound of all channles) to show the user their total vanilla ligthning balnce?

The /nodeinfo API returns the local_balance_sat which represents the total vanilla lightning balance (which would become available on-chain after closing all channels). To get the sum of outbound and inbound of all channels you need to call /listchannels and sum every outbound_balance_msat and inbound_balance_msat, typically filtered by e.g. "status". Providing some of this aggregared info in /nodeinfo (e.g. filtered for "Opened" channels) might be nice but, since there's already a way to compute it, it most likely won't come in the near future.
