2e73739837 coinselection: Track BnB iteration count in result (Murch)

Pull request description:

  This PR rewrites the implementation of the BnB coinselection algorithm
  to skip the duplicate evaluation of previously visited input selections.

  In the original implementation of BnB, the state of the search is
  backtracked by explicitly walking back to the omission branch and then
  testing again. This retests an equivalent candidate set as before, e.g.,
  after backtracking from {ABC}, it would evaluate {AB_}, before trying
  {AB_D}, but {AB_} is equivalent to {AB} which was tested before.

  CoinGrinder tracks the state of the search instead by remembering which
  UTXO was last added and explicitly shifting from that UTXO directly to
  the next, so after {ABC}, it will immediately move on to {AB_D}. We
  replicate this approach here.

  As fewer nodes are visited, this approach will enumerate more possible
  combinations than the original implementation given the same limit for
  iterations.

* Generally, on a diverse UTXO pool BnB will quickly pass over UTXOs bigger than the target and then start
* combining small counts of UTXOs that in sum remain under the selection_target+cost_of_change. When there are
* multiple UTXOs that have matching amount and cost, combinations with equivalent input sets are skipped. The
* UTXO pool for this test is specifically crafted to create as much branching as possible. The selection target
* is 8CENT while all UTXOs are slightly bigger than 1CENT. The smallest eight are 100,000…100,007 sats, while
* the larger nine are 100,368…100,375 (i.e., 100,008…100,016 sats plus cost_of_change (359 sats)).
*
* Because BnB will only select input sets that fall between selection_target and selection_target +
* cost_of_change, and the search traverses the UTXO pool from large to small amounts, the search will visit
* every single combination of eight inputs. All except the last combination will overshoot by more than
* cost_of_change on the eighth input, because the larger nine inputs each exceed 1 CENT by more than
* cost_of_change. Only the last combination consisting of the eight smallest UTXOs falls into the target
* window.
