b4ac7071ff discovery+routing: split 'routing' package on 'routing' and 'discovery'
In this commit the routing package was divided on two separete one,
this was done because 'routing' package start take too much responsibily
on themself, so with following commit:

Routing pacakge:
Enitites:
* channeldb.ChannelEdge
* channeldb.ChannelPolicy
* channeldb.NodeLightning

Responsibilities:
* send topology notification
* find payment paths
* send payment
* apply topology changes to the graph
* prune graph
* validate that funding point exist and corresponds to given one
* to be the source of topology data

Discovery package:
Entities:
* lnwire.AnnounceSignature
* lnwire.ChannelAnnouncement
* lnwire.NodeAnnouncement
* lnwire.ChannelUpdateAnnouncement

Responsibilities:
* validate announcement signatures
* sync topology with newly connected peers
* handle the premature annoucement
* redirect topology changes to the router susbsystem
* broadcast announcement to the rest of the network
* exchange channel announcement proofs

Before that moment all that was in the 'routing' which is quite big for
one subsystem.

routing: implement route failure fallback in SendPayment
This commit adds payment route failure fallback to SendPayment. By
this, we mean that we now take all the possible routes found during
path finding and try them in series. Either a route fails and we move
onto the next one, or the route is successful and we terminate early.

With this commit, sending payments using lnd is now much more robust as
if there exists an eligible route with sufficient capacity, it will be
utilized.

routing: FindRoute is now FindRoutes, uses our KSP algo, ranks by fee
This commit modifies the existing FindRoute method on the ChannelRouter
to now use the KSP implementation added in a prior commit.

This new method FindRoutes, is able to find all the possible paths
between a source and destination. The method takes all paths reported
by findPaths, and attempt to turn each of them into a route. A route
differs from a path in that is has complete time-lock and fee
information. Some paths may not be able to be turned into routes as
once fees are accounted for the have an insufficient flow. We then take
the routes, sort them by total fee (with time-lock being a
time-breaker), then return them in sorted order.
