htlcswitch: only error in closeCircuit if the htlc was failed

This commit changes the switch to only log an error if update_fail_htlc
comes in and closeCircuit returns ErrUnknownCircuit. Rationale
being that only settles should hit this code path, anything else
is a result of a link flap and should be treated as an error.
