We often want a pointer which will turn to NULL if the pointed-to thing is
freed. This is possible with tal objects, so create it.

We now have a pointer to chainparams, that fails valgrind if we do anything
chain-specific before setting it.

Using a global variable is a bit lazy, but weaving the network type through
the entire stack is a daunting task. Maybe we can make that happen at a later
stage.
Most of the changes in `chainparams.c` are just formatting the
`genesis_blockhash` a bit nicer (`clang-format` to the rescue).

In some daemons I want to hand it into a loop, which would call
clean_tmpctx(). This causes a subtle bug.
So just free the children directly: the pointer itself remains valid.

In several places we use low-level tal functions because we want the
label to be something other than the default. ccan/tal is adding
tal_*_label so replace them and shim it for now.

tal_count() is used where there's a type, even if it's char or u8, and
tal_bytelen() is going to replace tal_len() for clarity: it's only needed
where a pointer is void.
We shim tal_bytelen() for now.

I did a brief audit of tmpctx uses, and we do leak them in various
corner cases. Fortunely, all our daemons are based on some kind of
I/O loop, so it's fairly easy to clean a global tmpctx at that point.
This makes things a bit neater, and slightly more efficient, but also
clearer: I avoided creating a tmpctx in a few places because I didn't
want to add another allocation. With that penalty removed, I can use
it more freely and hopefully write clearer code.

To avoid everything pulling in HTLCs stuff to the opening daemon, we
split the channel and commit_tx routines into initial_channel and
initial_commit_tx (no HTLC support) and move full HTLC supporting versions
into channeld.

Added channel announcement serialization and parsing, as well as the
entrypoints for the IRC peer discovery. Announcements are signed by the
sending endpoint and signatures are verified before adding the channels
to the local view of the topology. We do not yet verify the existence of
the anchor transaction.
