We should actually be including this (as it may define _GNU_SOURCE
etc) before any system headers. But where we include <assert.h> we
often didn't, because check-includes would complain that the headers
included it too.
Weaken that check, and include config.h in C files before assert.h.

Node ids are pubkeys, but we only use them as pubkeys for routing and checking
gossip messages. So we're packing and unpacking them constantly, and wasting
some space and time.
This introduces a new type, explicitly the SEC1 compressed encoding
(33 bytes). We ensure its validity when we load from the db, or get it
from JSON. We still use 'struct pubkey' for peer messages, which checks
validity.
