routing: account for remaining routing onion errors in SendPayment
In this commit, we address a number of edge cases that were unaccounted
for when responding to errors that can be sent back due to an HTLC
routing failure. Namely:

   * We’ll no longer stop payment attempts if we’re unable to apply a
channel update, instead, we’ll log the error, prune the channel and
continue.
    * We’ll no remember which channels were pruned due to insufficient
fee errors. If we ever get a repeat fee error from a channel, then we
prune it. This ensure that we don’t get stuck in a loop due to a node
continually advertising the same fees.
   * We also correct an error in which node we’d prune due to a
temporary or permanent node failure. Before this commit, we would prune
the next node, when we should actually be pruning the node that sent us
the error.

Finally, we also add a new test to exercise the fee insufficient error
handling and channel pruning.

Fixes #865.

The routing package implements authentication+validation of channel announcements, pruning of the channel graph, path finding within the network, sending outgoing payments into the network and synchronizing new peers to our channel graph state.
