channeldb: store the funding transaction broadcast height for channels
This commit expands the field within the OpenChannel struct in order to
start tracking the height that the funding transaction was initially
broadcast. Other sub-systems within lnd can now use this data to give a
more accurate height hint to the ChainNotifier, or to use during the
funding workflow to decide if a channel should be forgotten after it
fails to confirm for N blocks.

channeldb

Build Status MIT licensed GoDoc

The channeldb implements the persistent storage engine for lnd and generically a data storage layer for the required state within the Lightning Network. The backing storage engine is boltdb, an embedded pure-go key-value store based off of LMDB.

The package implements an object-oriented storage model with queries and mutations flowing through a particular object instance rather than the database itself. The storage implemented by the objects includes: open channels, past commitment revocation states, the channel graph which includes authenticated node and channel announcements, outgoing payments, and invoices
