In this commit, we modify the pruning semantics of the missionControl struct. Before this commit, on each payment attempt, we would fetch a new graph pruned view each time. This served to instantly propagate any detected failures to all outstanding payment attempts. However, this meant that we could at times get stuck in a retry loop if sends take a few second, then we may prune an edge, try another, then the original edge is now unpruned. To remedy this, we now introduce the concept of a paymentSession. The session will start out as a snapshot of the latest graph prune view. Any payment failures are now reported directly to the paymentSession rather than missionControl. The rationale for this is that edges/vertexes pruned as result of failures will never decay for a local payment session, only for the global prune view. With this in place, we ensure that our set of prune view only grows for a session. Fixes #536. |

routing
The routing package implements authentication+validation of channel announcements, pruning of the channel graph, path finding within the network, sending outgoing payments into the network and synchronizing new peers to our channel graph state.
