breacharbiter: introduce new sub-system to watch for breaches
This commit introduces a new sub-system into the daemon whose job it is
to vigilantly watch for any potential channel breaches throughout the
up-time of the daemon. The logic which was moved from the utxoNursery
in a prior commit now resides within the breachArbiter.

Upon start-up the breachArbiter will query the database for all active
channels, launching a goroutine for each channel in order to be able to
take action if a channel breach is detected. The breachArbiter is also
responsible for notifying the htlcSwitch about channel breaches in
order to black-list the breached linked during any multi-hop forwarding
decisions.
