Correct MIN_FINAL_CLTV_EXPIRY to match our enforced requirements

Our enforced requirements for HTLC acceptance is that we have at
least HTLC_FAIL_BACK_BUFFER blocks before the HTLC expires. When we
receive an HTLC, the HTLC would be "already expired" if its
`cltv_expiry` is current-block + 1 (ie the next block could
broadcast the commitment transaction and time out the HTLC). From
there, we want an extra HTLC_FAIL_BACK_BUFFER in blocks, plus an
extra block or two to account for any differences in the view of
the current height before send or while the HTLC is transiting the
network.
