This commit fixes a potential bug in our test harness, by ensuring that
the constructed node policies are configured _after_ sorting. Currently
the node pubkeys are sorted, but additional parameters (max htlc,
disabled, etc) are applied using the unsorted policies.
Most of the constructors used today use the symmetric channel
constructor, so this shouldn't cause an issue with the majority of our
tests. We recently introduced an asymmetric channel constructor for
which this could have been an issue, however, no known issues were
discovered.
Lastly, we remove the direction from the configuration altogether, and
derive it purely from the final sorting of the pubkeys.
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.
