Even without optimization, it's faster to walk all the channels than
ping another daemon and wait for the response.
Changelog-Changed: Forwarding messages is now much faster (less inter-daemon traffic)

The idea is that gossipd can give us the cupdate we need for an error, and
we wire things up so that we ask for it (async) just before we send the
error to the subdaemon.
I tried many other things, but they were all too high-risk.
1. We need to ask gossipd every time, since it produces these lazily
(in particular, it doesn't actually generate an offline update unless
the channel is used).
2. We can't do async calls in random places, since we'll end up with
an HTLC in limbo. What if another path tries to fail it at the same time?
3. This allows us to use a temporary_node_failure error, and upgrade it
when gossipd replies. This doesn't change any existing assumptions.

Before this patch we used to send `double`s over the wire by just
copying them. This is not portable because the internal represenation
of a `double` is implementation specific.
Instead of this, multiply any floating-point numbers that come from
the outside (e.g. JSONs) by 1 million and round them to integers when
handling them.
* Introduce a new param_millionths() that expects a floating-point
number and returns it multipled by 1000000 as an integer.
* Replace param_double() and param_percent() with param_millionths()
* Previously the riskfactor would be allowed to be negative, which must
have been unintentional. This patch changes that to require a
non-negative number.

This is the last venue we need to add custom featurebits to, so we also unmark
the test as xfail.
Changelog-Added: plugin: Plugins can now signal support for experimental protocol extensions by registering featurebits for `node_announcement`s, the connection handshake, and for invoices. For now this is limited to non-dynamic plugins only
Default is legacy. If we have future styles, new strings can be defined,
but for now it's "tlv" or "legacy".

This is mainly an internal-only change, especially since we don't
offer any globalfeatures.
However, LND (as of next release) will offer global features, and also
expect option_static_remotekey to be a *global* feature. So we send
our (merged) feature bitset as both global and local in init, and fold
those bitsets together when we get an init msg.

I was seeing some accidental pruning under load / Travis, and in
particular we stopped accepting channel_updates because they were 103

This will let gossipd be more intelligent about gossiping before we're

It's generally clearer to have simple hardcoded numbers with an
#if DEVELOPER around it, than apparent variables which aren't, really.
Interestingly, our pruning test was always kinda broken: we have to pass
two cycles, since l2 will refresh the channel once to avoid pruning.
Do the more obvious thing, and cut the network in half and check that
l1 and l3 time out.

During sync it is highly likely that we can coalesce multiple calls and share
results among them. We also report back failures for non-existing blocks early
on, so we don't run into issues with blocks that our bitcoind doesn't have

This was caused by us not checking against the max_blockheight, but rather the
min_blockheight which can be negative with a newly created node. This is still

"result" should always be an object (so that we can add new fields),
so make that implicit in json_stream_success.
This makes our primitives well-formed: we previously used NULL as our
fieldname when calling the first json_object_start, which is a hack
since we're actually in an object and the fieldname is 'result' (which
was already written by json_object_start).
There were only two cases which didn't do this:
1. dev-memdump returned an array. No API guarantees on this.
2. shutdown returned a string.
I temporarily made shutdown return an empty object, which shouldn't
break anything, but I want to fix that later anyway.

These are generalized from our internal implementations.
The main difference is that 'struct json_escaped' is now 'struct
json_escape', so we replace that immediately.
The difference between lightningd's json-writing ringbuffer and the
more generic ccan/json_out is that the latter has a better API and
handles escaping transparently if something slips through (though
it does offer direct accessors so you can mess things up yourself!).

This means there's now a semantic difference between the default `fromid`
and setting `fromid` explicitly to our own node_id. In the default case,
it means we don't charge ourselves fees on the route.
This means we can spend the full channel balance.
We still want to consider the pricing of local channels, however:
there's a *reason* to discount one over another, and that is to bias
things. So we add the first-hop fee to the *risk* value instead.

Keeping the uintmap ordering all the broadcastable messages is expensive:
130MB for the million-channels project. But now we delete obsolete entries
from the store, we can have the per-peer daemons simply read that sequentially
and stream the gossip itself.
This is the most primitive version, where all gossip is streamed;
successive patches will bring back proper handling of timestamp filtering
and initial_routing_sync.
We add a gossip_state field to track what's happening with our gossip
streaming: it's initialized in gossipd, and currently always set, but
once we handle timestamps the per-peer daemon may do it when the first
filter is sent.

A new string field is added to the command structure and is specified at the creation of each native command, and in the JSON created by 'json_add_help_command()'.
This has two effects: most importantly, it avoids the problem where
lightningd creates a 800MB JSON blob in response to listchannels,
which causes OOM on the Raspberry Pi (our previous max allocation was
832MB). This is because lightning-cli can start draining the JSON
while we're filling the buffer, so we end up with a max allocation of
68MB.
But despite being less efficient (multiple queries to gossipd), it
actually speeds things up due to the parallelism:

As a general rule, lightningd shouldn't parse user packets. We move the
parsing into gossipd, and have it respond only to permanent failures.
Note that we should *not* unconditionally remove a channel on
WIRE_INVALID_ONION_HMAC, as this can be triggered (and we do!) by
feeding sendpay a route with an incorrect pubkey.
