gossipd: don't create a new chain of timers on every connect command.

When a connect fails, if it's an important peer, we set a timer.  If
we have a manual connect command, this means we do this again, leading
to another timer.

For a manual command, free any existing timer; the normal fail logic
will start another if necessary.
