The term `recipient` is commonly used to refer to the address to which a note is sent; however, a bundle may include multiple outputs to the same recipient. This change is intended to clarify this usage. Co-authored-by: Daira Emma Hopwood <daira@jacaranda.org>

Why does this need to be public? SpendInfo::dummy is not public (so there's an API asymmetry now), and the builder is responsible for applying padding internally.

I want it to be possible for callers to add dummy actions beyond the two required padding; they can already do so by manually sending zero value to a random address, so exposing this convenience method doesn't add any capability that they don't already have, and I don't see there as being a substantive maintenance burden.

This is now a bit unintuitive, because it can potentially include both real spends and outputs, and dummies beyond what the bundle type's padding requires. This opens up the API to user-defined extra padding that can potentially make their transactions distinguishable from network transactions.
That being said, the way that BundleType::num_actions works means that this doesn't prevent the BundleType's padding rule from being applied, so this is a hazard that should be documented, not a bug per se.

The users can already add padding by just sending zeros to arbitrary addresses, so it doesn't change anything.
