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.

They already send *us* gossip messages, so they have to be distinct anyway.
Why make us both do extra work?
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
We use the high bit of the length field: this way we can still check
that the checksums are valid on deleted fields.
Once this is done, serially reading the gossip_store file will result
in a complete, ordered, minimal gossip broadcast. Also, the horrible
corner case where we might try to delete things from the store during
load time is completely gone: we only load non-deleted things.

Each destructor2 costs 40 bytes, and struct chan is only 120 bytes. So
this drops our memory usage quite a bit:

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:

For giant nodes, it seems we spend a lot of time memmoving this array.
Normally we'd go for a linked list, but that's actually hard: each
channel has two nodes, so needs two embedded list pointers, and when
iterating there's no good way to figure out which embedded pointer
we'd be using.
So we (ab)use htable; we don't really need an index, but it's good for
cache-friendly iteration (our main operation). We can actually change
to a hybrid later to avoid the extra allocation for small nodes.

The cause was that converting a block number to an scid truncates it
at 24 bits. When we look through the index from (truncated number) to
(real end number) we get every channel, which is too large to encode,
so we iterate again.
This fixes both that problem, and also the issue that we'd end up
dividing into many empty sections until we get to the highest block
number. Instead, we just tack the empty blocks on to then end of the
final query.
(My initial version requested 0xFFFFFFFE blocks, but the dev code
which records what blocks were returned can't make a bitmap that big
on 32 bit).

Currently only used by gossipd for channel elimination.
Also print them in canonical form (/[01]), so tests need to be
changed.

seed isn't very useful at this level: I've left it in routing.c
because it might be useful for detailed testing. Pretty sure it's unused,
so I simply removed it.
The fuzzpercent is documented to default at 5%, but actually was 75%.
Fix that too.

Christian and I both unwittingly used it in form:
*tal_arr_expand(&x) = tal(x, ...)
Since '=' isn't a sequence point, the compiler can (and does!) cache
the value of x, handing it to tal *after* tal_arr_expand() moves it
due to tal_resize().
The new version is somewhat less convenient to use, but doesn't have
this problem, since the assignment is always evaluated after the
resize.
