In this commit:
* we partition lnwire.ChanUpdateFlag into two (ChanUpdateChanFlags and
ChanUpdateMsgFlags), from a uint16 to a pair of uint8's
* we rename the ChannelUpdate.Flags to ChannelFlags and add an
additional MessageFlags field, which will be used to indicate the
presence of the optional field HtlcMaximumMsat within the ChannelUpdate.
* we partition ChannelEdgePolicy.Flags into message and channel flags.
This change corresponds to the partitioning of the ChannelUpdate's Flags
field into MessageFlags and ChannelFlags.

Since NodeScores no longer returns fully populated AttachmentDirectives,
we make this explicit by defining a new type NodeScore that includes a
subset of what the AttachmentDirective does.
We create a new type NodeScore which is a tuple (NodeID, score). The
weightedChoice and chooseN algorithms are altered to expect this type.
This is done in order to simplify the types we are using, since we were
only using a subset of the fields in AttachmentDirective.
Since we want to combine scores from multiple heuristics, things get
complicated if the heuristics report their own individual channel sizes.
Therefore we change the NodeScores interface slightly, letting the agent
specify the wanted channel size, and let the heuristic score the nodes
accordingly.
We let the agent call ChannelBudget on its constraints directly, and
not go through the heuristic. This is needed since when we want to have
multiple active heuristics concurrently, it won't make sense anymore to
ask each of the heuristics.
The mockConstraints are also updated to act as the mockHeuristic did
before, by making it possible to control the responses it gives by
sending them on the contained channels.
To decouple the autopilot heuristic from the constraints, we start by
abstracting them behind an interface to make them easier to mock. We
also rename them HeuristicConstraints->AgentConstraints to make it clear
that they are now constraints the agent must adhere to.
This commit fixes a subtle bug within the autopilot manager, that would
cause the active pilot to not be reset in case it wasn't started
successfully.
We also make sure the associated goroutines close over the started
pilot, and not the active pilot.
This commit makes the weightedChoice algorithm take a slice of weights
instead of a map of node scores. This let us avoid costly map allocation
and iteration.
In addition we make the chooseN algorithm keep track of the remaining
nodes by keeping a slice of weights through its entire run, similarly
avoiding costly map allocation and iteration.
In total this brings the runtime of the TestChooseNSample testcase down
from ~73s to ~3.6s.
This addition to the unit tests makes sure nodes that have no channels
in the graph are left out od the scored nodes, implicitly giving them a
score of 0.
This commit makes the autopilot agent use the new NodeScores heuristic
API to select channel candiates, instead of the Select API. The result
will be similar, but instead of selecting a set of nodes to open
channels to, we get a score based results which can later be used
together with other heuristics to choose nodes to open channels to.
This commit also makes the existing autopilot agent tests compatible
with the new NodeScores API.
This commit adds a new method NodeScores to the AttachementHeuristic
interface. Its intended use is to score a set of nodes according to
their preference as channel counterparties.
The PrefAttach heuristic gets a NodeScores method that will score the
ndoes according to their number of already existing channels, similar to
what is done already in Select.
This commit defines a new struct HeuristicConstraints that will be used
to keep track of the initial constraints the autopilot agent needs to
adhere to. This is currently done in the ConstrainedPrefAttachement
heuristic itself, but this lets us share these constraints and common
method netween several heuristics.
This commit ensures that the mock attachment
directives use unique keys, ensuring that they
aren't skipped due to already having pending
connection requests. The tests fail when
they're all the same since they collide
in the pendingConns map.
