Now that SendToRoute is no longer using the payment lifecycle, we
remove the error structs and vars used to cache the last encountered
error. For SendToRoute this will now be returned directly after a shard
has failed.
For SendPayment this means that the last error encountered durinng
pathfinding no longer will be returned. All errors encounterd can
instead be inspected from the HTLC list.
The routing package implements authentication+validation of channel
announcements, pruning of the channel graph, path finding within the network,
sending outgoing payments into the network and synchronizing new peers to our
channel graph state.
