This means we intercept the peer's gossip_timestamp_filter request
in the per-peer subdaemon itself. The rest of the semantics are fairly
simple however.

Keeping the uintmap ordering all the broadcastable messages is expensive:
130MB for the million-channels project. But now we delete obsolete entries
from the store, we can have the per-peer daemons simply read that sequentially
and stream the gossip itself.
This is the most primitive version, where all gossip is streamed;
successive patches will bring back proper handling of timestamp filtering
and initial_routing_sync.
We add a gossip_state field to track what's happening with our gossip
streaming: it's initialized in gossipd, and currently always set, but
once we handle timestamps the per-peer daemon may do it when the first
filter is sent.

Encapsulating the peer state was a win for lightningd; not surprisingly,
it's even more of a win for the other daemons, especially as we want
to add a little gossip information.
