Account for existing input amounts throughout coin selection
We'd previously ignore the existing amount transactions were already
attempting to spend when deciding whether we should add more inputs
throughout coin selection. This would result in us attaching more inputs
than necessary to satisfy our target amount. In the case of HTLC
transactions, we'd burn the HTLC amount completely, since the pre-signed
transaction has zero fee (input amount == output amount).
Along the way, we also fix the slight overpayment in anchor
transactions. We now properly account for the fees the transaction
already paid for, simply by pretending the fees are part of the anchor
input amount.
Since we don't know the total input amount of an external claim (those
which come anchor channels), we can't limit our feerate bumps by the
amount of funds we have available to use. Instead, we choose to limit it
by a margin of the new feerate estimate.

Track "steady-state" channel balances in history buckets not live
The lower-bound of the scoring history buckets generally never get
used - if we try to send a payment and it fails, we don't learn
a new lower-bound for the liquidity of a channel, and if we
successfully send a payment we only learn a lower-bound that
applied *before* we sent the payment, not after it completed.
If we assume channels have some "steady-state" liquidity, then
tracking our liquidity estimates *after* a payment doesn't really
make sense - we're not super likely to make a second payment across
the same channel immediately (or, if we are, we can use our
un-decayed liquidity estimates for that). By the time we do go to
use the same channel again, we'd assume that its back at its
"steady-state" and the impacts of our payment have been lost.
To combat both of these effects, here we "subtract" the impact of
any just-successful payments from our liquidity estimates prior to
updating the historical buckets.

Move the historical bucket tracker to 32 unequal sized buckets
Currently we store our historical estimates of channel liquidity in
eight evenly-sized buckets, each representing a full octile of the
channel's total capacity. This lacks precision, especially at the
edges of channels where liquidity is expected to lie.
To mitigate this, we'd originally checked if a payment lies within
a bucket by comparing it to a sliding scale of 64ths of the
channel's capacity. This allowed us to assign penalties to payments
that fall within any more than the bottom 64th or lower than the
top 64th of a channel.
However, this still lacks material precision - on a 1 BTC channel
we could only consider failures for HTLCs above 1.5 million sats.
With today's lightning usage often including 1-100 sat payments in
tips, this is a rather significant lack of precision.
Here we rip out the existing buckets and replace them with 32
*unequal* sized buckets. This allows us to focus our precision at
the edges of a channel (where the liquidity is likely to lie, and
where precision helps the most).
We set the size of the edge buckets to 1/16,384th of the channel,
with the size increasing exponentially until it approaches the
inner buckets. For backwards compatibility, the buckets divide
evenly into octets, allowing us to convert the existing buckets
into the new ones cleanly.
This allows us to consider HTLCs down to 6,000 sats for 1 BTC
channels. In order to avoid failing to penalize channels which have
always failed, we drop the sliding scale for comparisons and simply
check if the payment is above the minimum bucket we're analyzing and
below *or in* the maximum one. This generates somewhat more
pessimistic scores, but fixes the lower bound where we suddenly
assign a 0% failure probability.
While this does represent a regression in routing performance, in
some cases the impact of not having to examine as many nodes
dominates, leading to a performance increase.
On a Xeon E3-1220 v5, the `large_mpp_routes` benchmark shows a 15%
performance increase, while the more stable benchmarks show an 8%
and 15% performance regression.
