Make monitor update name public

These structs are meant for MonitoringUpdatingPersister implementation, but some
external implementations may still reuse them, so going to make them public.

-/// A struct representing a name for an update.
+/// A struct representing a name for a channel monitor update.
+///
+/// `UpdateName` is primarily used within the `MonitorUpdatingPersister` in
+/// functions that store or retrieve partial updates to channel monitors. It
+/// provides a consistent way to generate and parse unique identifiers for
+/// monitor updates based on their sequence number.
+///
+/// The name is derived from the update's sequence ID, which is a monotonically
+/// increasing u64 value. This format allows for easy ordering of updates and
+/// efficient storage and retrieval in key-value stores.
+///
+/// # Usage
+///
+/// While users of the Lightning Dev Kit library generally won't need to
+/// interact with `UpdateName` directly, it still can be useful for custom
+/// persistence implementations. The u64 value is the update_id that can be
+/// compared with [ChannelMonitor::get_latest_update_id] to check if this update
+/// has been applied to the channel monitor or not, which is useful for pruning
+/// stale channel monitor updates off persistence.
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// ```
+/// use lightning::util::persist::UpdateName;
+///
+/// let update_id: u64 = 42;
+/// let update_name = UpdateName::from(update_id);
