This commit was previously split into the following parts to ease

- fa80bca9: bump go modules
This commit adds the `lnnet` package which contains an
implementation of the newly created LightningNet interface which
multiplexes the Dial and DNS-related functions to use net
by default and torsvc if a flag is specified. This modularization
makes for cleaner code.
This commit modifies lnwire.NetAddress by adding a .Network() method.
With this added method the struct now implements the net.Addr interface
meaning that it can now be transparently passed into any context where
a net.Addr is requested.
This change paves the way to integration of btcd’s new connmgr into the
daemon to handle establishing persistent connections to all channel
counter parties.
