In this commit, we update the `TestChanSyncFailure` method to pass given
the new behavior around updating borked channel states. In order to do
this, we add a new method to allow the test to clear an existing channel
state. This method may be of independent use in other areas in the
codebase in the future as well.
The channeldb implements the persistent storage engine for lnd and
generically a data storage layer for the required state within the Lightning
Network. The backing storage engine is
boltdb, an embedded pure-go key-value store
based off of LMDB.
The package implements an object-oriented storage model with queries and
mutations flowing through a particular object instance rather than the database
itself. The storage implemented by the objects includes: open channels, past
commitment revocation states, the channel graph which includes authenticated
node and channel announcements, outgoing payments, and invoices
