chainntfns: specify that implementations must support multiple clients
This commit updates the documentation for the ChainNotifier interface
to specify that all implementation MUST be able to support dispatching
the same notification to multiple clients.

chainntfns: eliminate dead lock possibility when dispatching notifications
This commit fixes a possible dead lock when dispatching notifications
caused by the circular communication between the notificationDisptcher
thread and the main notification thread within the btcrpcclient.

Rather than potentially blocking for eternity on a blocking send,
notifications are now instantly handled by appending the notification
on an unbounded queue then launching a goroutine to signal the
dispatcher thread that a new item is available within the queue.

chainntnfs: add multi-client txid support for confirmation notifications
This commit adds multi-client support for confirmation notification of
the same transaction. Within the daemon there might be scenarios where
multiple goroutines are waiting for the same transaction to be
confirmed in order to properly fulfill their tasks. Previously if
multiple clients were registered for the same txid confirmation
notification, then only the client who registered last would receive
the notification.

chainntnfs: add cross interface implementation tests
This commit refactors the existing chainntnfns package in order to
allow more easily allow integration into the main system, by allowing
one to gain access to a set of end-to-end tests for a particular
ChainNotifier implementation.

In order to achieve this, the existing set of tests for the only
concrete implementation (`BtcdNoitifer`) have been refactored to test
against all “registered” notifier interfaces registered. This is
achieved by creating the concept of a “driver” for each concrete
`ChainNotifer` implementation. Once a the package of a particular
driver is imported, solely for the side effects, the init() method
automatically registers the driver.

Additionally, the documentation in various areas of the package have
been cleaned up a bit.
