6c918a1806 channeldb: store unknown policies in database
The commit ensures that for every channel, there will always
be two entries in the edges bucket. If the policy from one or
both ends of the channel is unknown, it is marked as such.

This allows efficient lookup of incoming edges. This is
required for backwards payment path finding.

build+multi: switch from bolt to bbolt
In this commit, we switch from boltbd/bolt to coreos/bbolt as the
former is no longer being actively maintained.

autopilot: fix chanID collision test flake by instead using atomic counter
This commit fixes a prior occasional test flake caused by the collision
of the randomly selected 64-bit integers. In order to get around this,
we now instead have a atomic monotonically increasing counter for each
channel ID used within the tests.

autopilot: "Look ma no hands!", introducing autopilot mode
This commit introduces the initial implementation of the autopilot
mode. Autopilot is new mode within lnd that enables automatic channel
management. This means that if enabled lnd will attempt to
automatically manage channels according to a set of heuristic defined
within the main configuration for autopilot.Agent instance.

The autopilot.Agent implements a simple closed control loop. It takes
in external signals such as wallet balance updates, new open channel,
and channels that are now closed the updates its internal state. With
each external trigger it will consult the registered
AttachmentHeuristic to decide: if it needs to open any more channels,
and if so how much it should use to open the channels, ultimately
returning a set of recommended AttachmentDirectives. The
autopilot.Agent loop will then take those attempt to establish
connection, and go back in waiting for a new external signal.

With this first implementation the default heuristic is the
ConstrainedPrefAttachment implementation of AttachmentHeuristic. Given
a min and max channel size, a limit on the number of channels, and the
percentage of wallet funds to allocate to channels, it will attempt to
execute a heuristic drive by the Barabási–Albert model model in order
to attempt to drive the global graph towards a scale free topology.

This is commit implements a foundational layer for future simulations,
optimization, and additional heuristics.
