Use excludeFromJsonDataMap to add an optional owner full name property to Faster Payments (GBP) accounts, without affecting the trade JSON contract (for backwards compatibility). This is to fix bisq-network#3976, that some banks have started checking the recipient name. Make the name a non-optional field for _new_ accounts, but display the details for old Faster Payments accounts in exactly the same way as before, only showing the extra field in the info popup, account and trade step views when it is present. Also update the now misleading payment instructions in the buyer popup. TODO: Update translations (which probably aren't needed anyway).

Description
Currently the "Faster Payments" payment method requires only a "UK sort code" and a "Account number". This is no longer enough. Banks now also require a name.
Example from a Bisq user.
Additional info
It's important that the traders go into a trade knowing what type of info they'll need to share so that they can make an informed decision.
