This commit adds a fetchMinMempoolFee function to the BitcoindEstimator
that fetches the current min mempool fee from the bitcoind backend. The
commit then also updates the BitcoindEstimator to use a minFeeManager
for it's minFeeManager member and uses the fetchMinMempoolFee function
to initialise this.
In this commit, we add a check inside EstimateFeePerKW for bitcoind so
that when the conf target exceeds the maxBlockTarget, we will use
maxBlockTarget instead.
In this commit, we create a new chainfee package, that houses all fee
related functionality used within the codebase. The creation of this new
package furthers our long-term goal of extracting functionality from the
bloated `lnwallet` package into new distinct packages. Additionally,
this new packages resolves a class of import cycle that could arise if a
new package that was imported by something in `lnwallet` wanted to use
the existing fee related functions in the prior `lnwallet` package.
