We need some way to reflect the tradeoff between the possible delay if
a payment gets stuck, and the fees charged by nodes. This adds a risk
factor which reflects the probability that a node goes down, and the
cost associated with losing access to our funds for a given time.

This is less convenient to use, but makes far more sense for a real
user (like a wallet). It can ask about the route, then decide whether
to use it or not.
This will make even more sense once we add a parameter to control how
long we let the HTLC be delayed for, so a client can query for high,
medium and low tolerances and compare results.
