This fixes the root cause of https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/issues/1212
where we deleted the payment because we wanted to retry, then retry failed
so we had an (old) HTLC without a matching payment. We then fed that
HTLC to onchaind, which tells us it's missing, and we try to fail the
payment and deref a NULL pointer.

We were using `\x0` to match NUL chars in the input (on the
assumption that NUL chars are "impossible" for decent LFS-compliant
systems).
However `\x0` is a GNUism.
Use the `\n` and the newline character, which is supported by (most)
POSIX sed.
We would `block_map_add` inside `add_tip`, but we never
`block_map_del` inside `remove_tip`, which is dangerous as
we actually `tal_free` the block inside `remove_tip`.
Our CI did not reliably trap this problem since block
hashes are random and rerunning the `test_blockchaintrack`
often passed spuriously.
If we're going to simply take() a pointer, don't allocate it off a random
object. Using NULL makes our intent clear, particularly with allocating
packets we're going to take() onto a queue.

This one is a bit more subtle than others: we can't just free it
inside the read_peer_msg() loop since we hand tmpctx in, so open-code
the two callers and it's clearer.
They're inside the only loops closingd has.

I did a brief audit of tmpctx uses, and we do leak them in various
corner cases. Fortunely, all our daemons are based on some kind of
I/O loop, so it's fairly easy to clean a global tmpctx at that point.
This makes things a bit neater, and slightly more efficient, but also
clearer: I avoided creating a tmpctx in a few places because I didn't
want to add another allocation. With that penalty removed, I can use
it more freely and hopefully write clearer code.

Needed for particular race condition: client calls `sendpay` with
intent to call `waitsendpay` later to get information, but the
payment fails after `sendpay` returns but before client can invoke
`waitsendpay`.
This lets client know of information even if it manages to invoke
`waitsendpay` "late".
Now it just returns true if it queued something. This allows it
to queue multiple packets, and lets it share code paths with other code
in future patches.
