chainntnfs: cache confirm hints within TxConfNotifier

In this commit, we extend our TxConfNotifier to cache height hints for
our confirmation events. Each transaction we've requested a confirmation
notification for will have its initial height hint cached. We increment
this height hint at every new block for unconfirmed transactions. This
allows us to retrieve the *exact* height at which the transaction has
been included in a block. By doing this, we optimize the different
ChainNotifier implementations since they will no longer have to scan
forward (and possibly fetch blocks in the neutrino/pruned node case)
from the initial height hint looking for the confirmation.
