Issue Addressed

#7181

Proposed Changes

Instead of storing the network key as binary data we store it as hex, allowing users to modify it via the file.

We can read old-binary forms, however we will migrate binary to hex as it will be the new standard.

Noting that this isn't backwards compat because old versions of LH won't work with the hex-formatted keys.
