routing: add new methods to check the freshness of an edge/node

In this commit, we add a set of new methods to check the freshness of
an edge/node. This will allow callers to skip expensive validation in
the case that the router already knows of an item, or knows of a
fresher version of that time.

A set of tests have been added to ensure basic correctness of these new
methods.
