fees: Always round up fee calculated from a feerate

When calculating the fee for a given tx size from a fee rate, we should
always round up to the next satoshi. Otherwise, if we round down (via
truncation), the calculated fee may result in a fee with a feerate
slightly less than targeted.

This is particularly important for coin selection as a slightly lower
feerate than expected can result in a variety of issues.
