We use the high bit of the length field: this way we can still check
that the checksums are valid on deleted fields.
Once this is done, serially reading the gossip_store file will result
in a complete, ordered, minimal gossip broadcast. Also, the horrible
corner case where we might try to delete things from the store during
load time is completely gone: we only load non-deleted things.

We're about to bump version again, and the code to upgrade it was
quite hairy (and buggy!). It's not worthwhile for such a
poorly-tested path: I will just add code to limit how much incoming
gossip we get to avoid flooding when we upgrade, however.
I also use a modern gossip_store version in our test_gossip_store_load
test, instead of relying on the upgrade path.

They're really gossipd-internal, and we don't want per-peer daemons
to confuse them with normal updates.
I don't bump the gossip_store version; that's coming with another update
anyway.

Save some overhead, plus gets us ready for giving subdaemons direct
store access. This is the first time we *upgrade* the gossip_store,
rather than just discarding.
The downside is that we need to add an extra message after each
channel_announcement, containing the channel capacity.

As a side-effect of using amount_msat in gossipd/routing.c, we explicitly
handle overflows and don't need to pre-prune ridiculous-fee channels.
