chainntnfs: add heightHint to RegisterSpendNtfn+ RegisterConfirmationsNtfn
This commit modifies two of the main methods in the ChainNotifier
interface to be more light client friendly. In order to do so, we now
tack on an extra parameter to the methods: heightHint. This value
represents the earliest known height that the chain should be scanned
when attempting to do a dispatch from historical data.

All tests have also been updated to use these new parameters properly
when excising the expected behavior of each interface implementation.

// ZeroMQ notifications, various Bitcoin API services, Electrum servers, etc.

// concurrent client requests, as well as multiple concurrent notification events.

// parameter is provided as a convenience to light clients. The
