routing: add error case for zero capacity

Since no edge should have a zero capacity associated with it, passing a
zero capacity to the bimodal probability calculation results now in an
error.

limited.](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/7444)
* Local edges and hop hints [are extended with a
capacity](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/7520) to avoid channel
white listing in probability calculations. The influence of the node
probability is reduced.
