Is the default CLN `pay` still as bad as it used to?

Yes

And this PR basically let's you use the `mpay` instead of `pay` for all lightning-cli pay calls?

That would be nice. They should probably just scrap pay altogether and ship mpay

Explanation for the non programmers?

Michael wrote mpay - a new pay plugin for CLN because CLN's pay is... not behaving as we expexted. Now Rusty of the CLN team pushed a commit adding the option for CLN to override pay with mpay.

CLN's "pay this lightning invoice" is pretty broken. This PR makes it easier for users to use the alternative "mpay" instead.
