lnwallet: add new method IsSynced to the WalletController interface

This commit adds a new method to the WalletController interface:
IsSynced. The role of the function is to query the local wallet about
if it thinks it has fully synced to the tip of the current main chain.
This function can be useful within U.I’s to block off certain
functionality until the wallet is fully synced to the main chain.
