chainntfns/btcdnotifier: fix race condition in notifyBlockEpochs

Browse Source 
This commit fixes a race condition in the notifyBlockEpochs detected by
the race condition detector. Previously the notifyBlockEpochs function
could cause a race condition when a new caller was either cancelling an
existing notification intent or creating a new one.

We fix this issue by making the call to notifyBlockEpochs synchronous
rather than asynchronous. An alternative would be to add a mutex
guarding the map state. The channel itself is buffered with a good
margin, so there shouldn’t be a huge impact.
