contractcourt: add new ChainArbitrator struct as central coordinator of package
In this commit, we add the ChainArbitrator struct. The ChainArbitrator
is a special sub-system that will oversee the on-chain resolution of
all active channels, and also channels that are in the pending close
state. The ChainArbitrator maintains a set of ChannelArbitrators, one
for each channel that hasn’t yet been fully resolved.

Outside sub-systems should send new channels to the arbitrator once
they’ve opened. Additionally, they can also trigger manual
interventions to close out a channel on chain forcibly, or just to
signal that a channel has been closed cooperatively.

Finally, (for now) the ChainArbitrator should be notified once a fresh
set of signals for a channel becomes available. The ChannelArbitrator
for the channel will use these set of signals to be notified when an
on-chain event happens.
